Grant Overview

Eligibility Criteria for Faith-Based Organizations in New Brunswick

Faith-based organizations qualify for this grant in New Brunswick if they hold registered charitable status under the Canada Revenue Agency and operate programs that target sea-level rise adaptation along the Bay of Fundy coastline and the Gulf of St. Lawrence shoreline. Eligible applicants must demonstrate at least three years of prior delivery of infrastructure projects within New Brunswick's 12 coastal counties, where annual erosion rates exceed 1.2 meters in 68 percent of monitored sites. Organizations must also submit evidence of matching funds equivalent to 40 percent of the requested amount, drawn from provincial or municipal sources.

Application requirements in New Brunswick center on submission of engineering assessments prepared by licensed professionals registered with the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of New Brunswick. Applicants must provide baseline data from the provincial Coastal Monitoring Network showing projected inundation under 0.5-meter sea-level rise scenarios by 2050. Realities include a 90-day review period conducted jointly by federal and provincial reviewers, with additional scrutiny applied to any proposal involving Acadian Peninsula communities where French-language service delivery constitutes a mandatory component.

Fit assessment for New Brunswick requires explicit linkage to the provincial Climate Change Action Plan target of protecting 15,000 hectares of coastal wetland by 2030. Unlike applications from neighboring Nova Scotia, New Brunswick requires demonstration of cross-border coordination capacity with Maine authorities on shared Fundy Bay sediment transport models. Organizations serving the Miramichi River estuary receive additional weighting when proposals incorporate data on commercial fishing fleet displacement caused by shifting marsh boundaries.

Application Requirements in New Brunswick Coastal Zones

New Brunswick applicants must document workforce composition showing that at least 25 percent of project staff hold certifications from the New Brunswick Community College coastal management program. Budget submissions require line-item breakdowns for materials sourced from suppliers within a 150-kilometer radius of the project site to align with provincial procurement preferences. Reviewers examine prior project completion rates, requiring a minimum 85 percent on-time delivery record for any infrastructure work performed in the province since 2018.
