The Agency published two funding opportunity notices and a
correction notice in the Federal Register for REAP for FY23. The first

September 30, 2023, and complete and eligible applications which were
not funded in the national unrestricted pooling must be withdrawn. The
Agency is removing the self-imposed deadline on the national
unrestricted pooling competitions for FY23 due to the overwhelming
response to REAP for FY 2023. The Agency will continue processing
applications received by June 30, 2023, into the first quarter of FY
2024 for participation in these national competitions. Unfunded
applications from the national competitions will not be moved into the
next FY 2024 funding cycle and must be withdrawn.
