Carbon Reduction Program
The Carbon Reduction Program (CRP) provides flexible funding that may be used by states and localities for projects that reduce transportation related carbon dioxide emissions. Each year, approximately $1.4 million is available in CRP funding for the Greater Des Moines region.
