Donor Name: Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities State: County: All Counties Type of Grant: Grant Deadline: (mm/dd/yyyy) 08/09/2024 Size of the Grant: More than $1 million Grant Duration: 2 Years Details: The Department of Transportation and Public Facilities administers the Harbor Facility Grant Program. Port or barge facilities are not eligible for the grant program.

A harbor facility may only receive one Tier I grant regardless if it is for all or only a portion of that harbor facility. The boundaries of a Tier I harbor facility will be based on the Department’s 1995 Alaska Harbor Directory or as determined by the Department.

Harbor facilities which have already received a Tier I grant can only compete for Tier II grants. Tier II grants may comprise “New Construction, Expansion, or Major Maintenance and Repair” of a harbor facility. A harbor facility is eligible for multiple Tier II grants.
