The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) invites East Coast state entities to apply for a cooperative agreement under the Marine Minerals Program to assess offshore sand resources on the South-Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf. The study aims to develop volume estimates of OCS sediment resources and promote coastal restoration and resiliency. This opportunity aligns with the goal of creating a national OCS sand resource inventory. The research will inform long-term planning and preservation of biological, cultural, and economic resources. Eligible states include North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. Proposals must be submitted by November 6, 2018.
