ESA CAM has reopened enrollment for Program Year 2022 (PY2022)! This new program cycle will operate until Dec. 2022 to serve projects on ESA CAM’s waitlist.
Selected applicants from the waitlist will receive a survey invitation to confirm project readiness, prospective scope of work, and ability to complete construction by the deadline of September 1, 2022. ESA CAM will serve applicants who return survey responses on a first come, first served basis. New document submittal deadlines shown below will be implemented to ensure timely completion of eligibility screenings and efficiency for projects that are shovel-ready. ESA CAM considers a project ‘shovel ready’ if the property representative has a contractor and potential scope of work identified, and can meet all milestone dates listed below including the Sept. 1, 2022 construction deadline.
| ESA CAM Important Milestones | Deadline |
| Project Enrollment Deadline | January 31st 2022 |
| Construction Complete | September 1st 2022 |

For more information on documentation required for ESA CAM enrollment see Section 2.2 Property Qualification Screening of the ESA CAM Policies and Procedures (p. 3) in addition to the Summary of ESA CAM Milestones (Figure 7, p. 12). Waitlisted applicants that have not participated in ESA CAM should also view pre-recorded ESA CAM webinars located in the resource section of our website for more information on the program, its offerings, and processes.
To help provide more insight into the new PY2022 program cycle, the ESA CAM team will host a PY2022 Program Overview Webinar in early December. Please ensure you are signed up for our Newsletter to get that webinar invitation and future important announcements.
