Description:

NRMRL's Air Pollution Prevention and Control Division's Air Pollution Technology Branch (APTB) is always interested in the potential for cooperative research if overlap occurs between the research goals of external organizations and APTB's research goals. APTB has participated in cooperative research with EPA's Small Business Innovative Research grantees, as well as with companies that have acquired funding through EPA's Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation (SITE) program. In addition, research may be funded through the Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) program and the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP). The Federal Technology Transfer Act authorizes the federal government to conduct joint research with industrial or institutional organizations and protects intellectural property that may be developed. Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADAs) can be set up between interested parties that will provide for the transfer of resources from nongovernment organizations to the federal government so that both parties can share jointly in the research and jointly in developed patents.
