The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is offering a cooperative agreement to Rutgers University for research on the interactions between offshore renewable energy development and commercial fishing. The objective is to characterize fishing activity within wind energy leases, assess potential impacts, and recommend best practices for mitigating effects on the fishing industry. The grant amount is around $500,000, available from FY 2019 to FY 2023. Only proposals related to understanding economic impacts of offshore wind energy on commercial fishing will be considered. Deadline for submission is May 23, 2019.

| Description: | The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management is offering a cooperative agreement opportunities to Rutgers University. The cooperative agreement would be to conduct research that meets the goals of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Office of Renewable Energy Programs (OREP). The Program oversees leasing for renewable energy projects on the Nations outer continental shelf and conducts reviews of offshore wind energy construction and operations plans. Purpose: BOEM is seeking information to better understand the interactions of offshore renewable energy development and commercial fishing activity. Specifically, characterize commercial fishing activity within wind energy leases within a regional context; describe ability and potential impacts of commercial fishers to fish in alternative locations within the larger fisheries management planning; and identify best practices for determining cumulative effects on commercial fishing industry. The total anticipated amount of available funding is approximately $500,000 subject to the availability of funds. The anticipated period of performance will be from fiscal year (FY) 2019 through FY 2023. BOEM anticipates making one cooperative agreement award in FY 2019 for one proposal submitted under this Program Announcement.This announcement is specifically to announce intent to undertake the following project(s):Understanding Potential Economic Impacts to Commercial Fishing Industry from Offshore Wind Energy DevelopmentOpen to:Rutgers UniversityNo other proposals are requested at this time. |
