Application Process

Step 1: Download and complete the Letter of Intent. Submit the Letter of Intent, along with an aerial photograph with site boundaries outlined, to Kirby.Lewis-Gill@tn.gov.

Step 2: Upon receipt of the Letter of Intent, TNECD will confirm the applicant's eligibility. TNECD will send the applicant their username and password, which they will use to access the application. You will not be able to access the application prior to submission of a Letter of Intent and receipt of your username and password. 

Step 3: All applications and pertinent supporting documentation must be uploaded to the application portal on or before the deadline.  All sections of the application must be answered completely.  Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.  

Step 4: Short-listed projects will be invited to give a presentation to the SDG committee. Following that presentation, award decisions will be made and announced.
