Deadlines November 17, 2009
Purpose Funding to improve our knowledge of the effects residential green construction has on both indoor environmental quality and occupant health, with a particular focus on children and other sensitive populations. The goals are to improve our knowledge of the benefits of residential green building methods on 1) indoor environmental quality, and 2) occupant health. It is expected that benefits would be most likely observed for respiratory health outcomes and reductions in irritation-related symptoms.
Eligibility State (includes District of Columbia, public institutions of higher education and hospitals); local (includes State-designated Indian Tribes, excludes institutions of higher education and hospitals); Federally Recognized Indian Tribal Governments; private nonprofit institution/organization (includes institutions of higher education and hospitals).
