In 2016, the U.S. federal government provided $48 million to relocate the climate-threatened Louisiana island of Isle de Jean Charles. The effort, which was the government's first climate-driven community relocation project, was closely watched as a potential model for the future. But the relocation was more challenging than originally anticipated. Many residents who were members of a Native American tribe felt they had been treated unfairly or were excluded from decisionmaking. In the end, some tribal leaders referred to the process as a “cultural genocide.” We speak with Jessica Simms, a cultural geographer who was Louisiana's lead outreach and engagement coordinator for the resettlement effort. She traces the array of factors behind the decision to relocate and the mix of successes and challenges along the way.

The Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency (SAFCA) Board of Directors met on August 20, 2026. The meeting covered public comments, construction updates on major flood protection projects, and the approval of the annual assessment roll. Public Comment Vicky Updike, a District 1 resident and volunteer with the Riverside Waterway Alliance, spoke during off-agenda public comments. She voiced concerns regarding a growing encampment on the North Sacramento levee near Rio Linda Boulevard and the Hanson Ranch Academy. Additionally, Updike highlighted the spread of invasive species in the creek—including water hyacinth, red-eared slider turtles, and Sesbania trees—and requested continued agency support to protect the local habitat. Consent Calendar and Agenda Changes The Board unanimously approved Consent Items 1 through 7 without discussion. At the end of the meeting, the Board voted to drop Item 10 from the agenda. All remaining items were received and filed. Executive Director's Report Executive Director Jason Campbell provided an extensive slide presentation outlining the agency's current projects and challenges: Federal Funding & Budget: A planned $108 million federal appropriation for Natomas Basin sections F and G is currently "hung up" due to a congressional continuing resolution. Because Congress did not approve Natomas Basin appropriations for FY 2026, a prolonged continuing resolution could impact the upcoming 2027 construction season. Natomas Basin & Reach A: Slurry wall construction is actively progressing, and utility relocations with PG&E, AT&T, and the City are on schedule. Additionally, the Corps of Engineers is advancing on bids for Pumping Plant 5. American River Common Features & Sacramento Weir: Heavy equipment access has been successfully routed through Glen Hall Park, and park restoration is underway. At the Sacramento Weir, Granite Construction has removed the north abutment and installed 173 new piles. Work is also proceeding on the weir's adjacent fish passage structure. Folsom Dam Raise: Most dikes are complete, and work is active on the main and wing dams. The Board approved extending a vital security contract with the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office to keep the project secure and moving forward. Tainter Gates & Hydraulic Rams: Modifications to the dam's Tainter gates to install top seals will continue over the next few years. Additionally, the Corps is replacing hydraulic ram rods on the gates because the original surface treatment did not meet specifications. Garden Highway Inquiry: Director Kaplan asked for an update on the re-opening schedule of Garden Highway through Reach 8. Campbell noted he did not have the exact timeline on hand but promised to email the details to the Board. Closed Session The Board convened a closed session during the meeting. Upon reconvening with a full 13-member quorum, the Board announced there was nothing to report out from the closed session. Assessment District No. 1 Rate Hearing The Board held an annual public hearing and approved the supplemental assessment roll for SAFCA's Operation and Maintenance Assessment District No. 1. The assessment rate remains unchanged from prior years and covers approximately 325,000 parcels. The next SAFCA Board meeting is scheduled for September 2026.

We've got ourselves a five alarm fire here, and not a lot of time to do something about it. If you currently have or are thinking of applying for any sort of federal grant funding for the work that you do, this is of utmost importance to you.  The current administration's Office of Management and Budget has proposed a new set of rules around how federal grants will be handled that have the potential to have tremendously negative impact on Nonprofits, and on your ability to access federal grant funds to do the very important work that you do. There is an opportunity to push back on these horrible proposed rules, and right now they're only proposed. But the deadline for public comments is July 13th. So fire up the laptop and get your comments going. I'll walk through the basics of what's going on, why it matters and how it would harm Nonprofits and the people we serve. I'll also hook you up with some links that will help you take immediate action on three  fronts.  If this is not already on your radar, I want to put it at the top of your to-do list for the coming week. In this episode, we share:How the proposed rules could endanger both current and future grants The types of nonprofits that are especially vulnerable under the proposed rules (hint: it's a lot of them)How the new proposed rules around federal grants connect back to the DOGE debacles of a year agoThree quick and powerful actions you can take right now to help block the proposed rules Take action to oppose the proposed changes by July 13, 2026:   Sign NCN's national letter  Submit a public comment here using NCN's comment guide which includes talking points, instructions, and more information.  Email your member of Congress and urge them to help protect nonprofit grantees and the communities they serve. If you want to do the deep dive, see NCN's chart of key provisions or read the proposed changes in its entirety.

City leaders are on the front lines of data use, but most lack visibility into the federal data landscape, what's available, what's changing, and how federal policy decisions affect local outcomes.

Tell us what you think of the show! The U.S. Department of Energy is moving forward with releasing billions of dollars in rebate funding to states earmarked by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) for two home energy programs: Home Efficiency Rebates (HER/HOMES), which enables whole-home retrofits that cut overall energy use by at least 15%, and Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEAR), providing point-of-sale coupons for high-efficiency electric appliances like heat pumps and electric stoves for low- and moderate-income households.On this episode of the Factor This podcast, host Paul Gerke is joined by Advanced Energy United policy principal Kate Shonk, who explains why the funding was stalled, where it's headed, and how it can really help people at a time when electricity prices are climbing almost everywhere, and affordability is on the menu for dinner table discussion. She dives into examples from a few of the roughly dozen states that are rolling out unique programs to take advantage of the efficiency rebates and shares what's working. Rebecca Puck Stair, a director for the State of New Mexico's Energy, Minerals, and Natural Resources Department, also joins the show and explores the real, tangible, human impact programs like HER and HEAR can have on communities in need. She details her state's efforts to optimize and consolidate programs to maximize the use of federal dollars and reveals a bit of the behind-the-scenes bureaucracy involved in translating policies from paper to practice.Want to make a suggestion for This Week in Cleantech?

The EMS One-Stop Blood on Board series moves to the federal level in Episode 3, exploring how the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant program is opening new funding pathways for prehospital blood programs. Host Rob Lawrence is joined by three leaders directly involved in building regional blood capability through federal funding. Julie Stilley, PhD, is an EMS researcher at the University of Missouri, whose team secured a $4.6 million SS4A demonstration grant focused on advanced post-crash care, including prehospital blood administration. Jason White represents the Mid-America Regional Council in Kansas City, a multi-jurisdictional regional planning organization coordinating EMS, trauma systems, hospitals and transportation partners around a regional whole blood strategy. Mark Heath is chief of EMS for the Kansas City Kansas Fire Department and one of the operational leaders preparing to launch whole blood in the field as part of the Kansas City regional effort. Rather than focusing solely on clinical practice, this episode examines the realities of applying for, winning and administering federal grant funding. The guests discuss building regional coalitions, engaging blood banks, developing standardized protocols, navigating compliance requirements and preparing operational rollouts. From Missouri's $4.6 million demonstration grant, to Kansas City's regional planning initiative, this episode provides a practical roadmap for EMS leaders looking to transform roadway safety funding into lifesaving trauma care capability.

The Trump administration settled a lawsuit this month challenging its year-long effort to dismantle the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and agreed to honor past grants that were clawed back last year forcing public libraries across the country (including tribal libraries) to scramble for alternative funding, cut programming, lay off employees, or close their doors. Tribal libraries get numerous grants from the IMLS and, while library directors and advocates welcome reinstated IMLS funds, they are looking to strengthen funding and support for the long term. On National Library Week, we’ll get an update from tribal library advocates about the longevity of these much-needed programs and facilities. We'll also learn about continued efforts to keep all books (including those written by Indigenous writers) on public and school library shelves. A handful of states passed legislation that reduces the risk of books being banned in schools and public libraries. This is in response to numerous book ban controversies in states like Texas and Florida that pit librarians and authors of books about certain LGBTQ2+, racial, and historical subjects against conservative Christians. Now, a bill that would ban similar books has been introduced to Congress.
