The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is offering the AK-19-02 grant through the Alaska Coastal Marine Institute (CMI) in partnership with the University of Alaska and the State of Alaska. This grant aims to support scientific research on the outer continental shelf environmental information and offshore oil and gas activities in Alaska. With funding of up to $500,000, the CMI seeks projects related to environmental DNA assessment, species boundaries, Pacific halibut movements, and biological effects of oil degradation products in Cook Inlet. Applicants must provide matching funds and submit proposals by the closing date of May 04, 2021.

| Description: | The Alaska CMI is a cooperative program between BOEM and the University of Alaska, with State of Alaska participation. It began in 1993 with the goals of updating and expanding our understanding of the outer continental shelf environmental information and addressing future needs related to offshore oil and gas in Alaska. This large program of scientific research is guided by providing data relevant to potential future lease sales and other oil and gas-related actions in the Alaska Region. Through an established cost-sharing arrangement, the CMI is expected to leverage additional scientific results and logistics capability at levels comparable to the BOEM contribution of up to $500,000 for awards in fiscal year 2021. Typically, five to seven new projects are funded each year and the recipient organization is required to match funds at least dollar for dollar. Following review of submitted Letters of Intent, BOEM is requesting proposals from the following list for consideration for funding through the CMI:
• Harnessing the power of environmental DNA as a real-time assessment tool of nearshore Arctic marine communities; |
