Montana Coal Board Grant Program

Eligible Projects

Projects include governmental services that are needed as a direct consequence of an increase or decrease of coal development or of an increase or decrease in the consumption of coal by a coal-using energy complex (90-6-208, MCA). A list of projects previously funded by the Coal Board is included on this website.

Eligibility Requirements

Applicants eligible to receive financial assistance:

* local governmental units (cities, towns, counties, school districts, water and sewer districts, etc.)

* state agencies

* governing bodies of federally recognized Indian tribes

Under 90-6-209 MCA, a grant to an Indian tribe may not be approved by the Coal Board unless:

The governing body of the tribe has agreed:

to waive its immunity from suit on any issue specifically arising from the transaction of a grant obtained under this part; and to the adjudication of any dispute arising out of the grant transaction in the district court of the first judicial district of the State of Montana; and approval of the transaction has been obtained from the Secretary of the United States Department of the Interior whenever approval is necessary.
