NOAA is offering project grants under its Great Lakes Habitat Restoration Program to support shovel-ready initiatives in U.S. Great Lakes Areas of Concern. This grant is for projects that align with NOAA’s mission to restore coastal habitats and advance the Great Lakes Regional Collaboration Strategy. Successful applications should demonstrate significant ecological benefits, especially those resilient to climate change, and contribute to delisting fish and wildlife impairments. Projects must also document tangible community benefits like improved recreation and show strong collaboration among diverse stakeholders including public, nonprofit, industry, academic, and governmental entities. The objective is to provide federal financial and technical assistance to ready-to-go restoration efforts.
