Opportunity Information: Apply for MA PID 24 001
The Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration (MARAD). For fiscal year 2024, MARAD is making $500,000,000 available nationwide to support port-related infrastructure investments. The program is intended to fund projects that strengthen the marine transportation system and improve the capability, efficiency, or reliability of ports and related freight movement networks, consistent with MARAD's role in supporting U.S. maritime and freight transportation priorities.
This specific funding notice is identified as "Port Infrastructure Development Program" under Funding Opportunity Number MA PID 24 001, with the funding activity category listed as Transportation and the CFDA number 20.823. The award instrument is a grant, and the opportunity is competitive (discretionary), meaning projects are selected based on program criteria rather than by formula. MARAD anticipates making about 40 awards under this notice, with an award ceiling of $125,000,000 per project, indicating that both mid-sized and large-scale port infrastructure projects may be competitive depending on the overall pool of applications and the program's priorities.
Eligible applicants cover a wide range of public-sector entities connected to transportation and port governance. This includes state governments and their political subdivisions (such as counties and cities or townships), special district governments with a transportation function, and public agencies or publicly chartered authorities established by one or more states. Federally recognized Native American tribal governments (Indian Tribes) are also eligible. In addition, multistate or multijurisdictional groups made up of these eligible entities can apply. The notice also allows a "lead entity" from the eligible public-sector categories to apply jointly with a private entity or group of private entities, which is an important feature for port projects that commonly involve partnerships between port authorities and private terminal operators, logistics companies, or other private stakeholders.
The funding opportunity was created on December 27, 2023, and the original application deadline (closing date) was May 10, 2024. In practical terms, this sets the window during which prospective applicants would have been expected to develop their project scope, assemble required documentation, coordinate with partners, and submit a complete application package to MARAD by the deadline.
In summary, PIDP FY 2024 is a major federal port infrastructure grant competition offering up to $500 million total in available funding, administered by MARAD, with up to $125 million possible per award and an expected total of roughly 40 awards. It is designed for public entities and port-related public authorities, with explicit flexibility for public-private collaboration through joint applications led by an eligible public entity.Apply for MA PID 24 001
