The National Propane Gas Association (NPGA) announced on October 22, 2026, that it had received a federal grant for Community SHIELD, a national hazardous-materials awareness and preparedness initiative. PHMSA's fiscal-year award list confirms $100,000 for NPGA through the Community Safety Grant program.
For retail propane companies across the United States, the near-term opportunity is a conversation with their state or regional association. The association can ask NPGA about participation and explain what, if anything, is being organized locally.
