The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) offers a grant for the study on Understanding Biological Connectivity Among Offshore Structures and Natural Reefs. The grant aims to investigate genetic markers to test connectivity hypotheses and their impact on non-indigenous species. Approximately $800,000 is available with a project duration from FY 2019 to FY 2024. The grant is exclusive to the University of California, Santa Barbara and involves significant participation from BOEM scientists. Applications must be submitted before May 7, 2019, and the project must commence by October 1, 2019, lasting 48 months.

| Description: | The Pacific Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Region of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is offering a cooperative agreement for the study Understanding Biological Connectivity Among Offshore Structures and Natural Reefs to test hypotheses on biological connectivity among artificial and natural habitats using genetic markers.This award will utilize genetic analyses to test hypotheses of connectivity and understand how connectivity may influence non-indigenous species (NIS).The total anticipated amount of available funding is approximately $800,000 subject to the availability of funds. The anticipated period of performance will be from fiscal year (FY) 2019 through FY 2024. BOEM anticipates making one cooperative agreement award in FY 2019 for one proposal submitted under this Program Announcement.
Work performance under these awards must start before October 1, 2019, and the proposed work must be completed no later than 48 months from the start date.This announcement is specifically to announce intent to undertake the following project(s): Understanding Biological Connectivity Among Offshore Structures and Natural Reefs Open to: University of California, Santa Barbara No other proposals are requested at this time. The award will be a cooperative agreement (see Eligibility Information below). This involves substantial involvement by BOEM scientists in various aspects of study development and/or study conduct. |
