Grants Management
Navigating state and federal grant opportunities is challenging. Covington has the expertise to find alternative funding sources for your projects – and manage the compliance and submission paperwork, too. Our team helps cities and counties turn complex funding into finished projects.
Covington’s experience includes such programs as Tidelands, Gulf Coast Restoration Fund, Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act, Coastal Impact Assistance Program, Community Development Block Grants (CDBG), and DWH funding.
Covington’s personnel have the broad experience necessary to successfully plan, implement, and manage projects funded through federal and state grant projects. These experiences and others have allowed our team to develop excellent working relationships with federal and state funding and regulatory agencies. These existing relationships enable us to proactively identify and navigate environmental, permitting, and regulatory hurdles to help keep projects on time.
