FY 2025 EDA Public Works and Economic Adjustment Assistance Programs

Economic Development Administration · PWEAA2023 · Deadline: Rolling / TBD · Advertised ceiling: $30M

Program-level history — this opportunity doesn't publish per-opportunity awards, so these numbers describe its parent program (CFDA 11.300, Investments for Public Works and Economic Development Facilities), not this competition alone. Labeled that way on purpose.

Ask-amount guidance

Applicants here typically receive far less than the advertised ceiling: the program median is $1.7M against a $30M ceiling (6%). Budgets far above the median need a story; budgets far below leave money on the table.

Draw-down reality (program)

Across 25 completed awards in this program (FY2021+ sample, USAspending outlay records), grantees ultimately drew a median 86% of obligated funds. A median well under 100% means underspend or early closure is common here — worth knowing before promising a spend-down timeline.
