The FHWA is an agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation  supports State and local governments in the design, construction, and maintenance of the Nation’s highway system (i.e., Federal Aid Highway Program) and various federally and tribal-owned lands (i.e., Federal Lands Highway Program).

Through financial and technical assistance to State and local governments, the FHWA is responsible for ensuring that America’s roads and highways continue to be among the safest and most technologically sound in the world.

The mission of the Cooperative Agreements and Non-State Grant Awards Division (HACG-30) within the FHWA, Office of Administration (HAD), is to award and administer grants and cooperative agreements to on-State DOT recipients (“Direct Awards”). These awards provide financial support for highway-related projects and range from planning, design, construction and maintenance to research, training, and technical assistance, as well as congressional earmarks for non-state recipients.

The Division is responsible for the preaward processes, award, and post-award administration of Federal assistance agreements (grants and cooperative agreements) for a wide range of research, specialized studies, construction and other activities necessary to support DOT, FHWA Headquarters Offices, and Division Offices carry out their mission in accordance with Title 23 U.S.C.

Federally recognized Tribal governments;
Institutions of Higher Education; and other recipients that are not State-level entities (e.g., State Departments of Transportation). HACG-30 does not support formula grants or block grants; such experience is beneficial but not directly relevant for this requirement.
