The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is offering this grant to support its FY 2013 Environmental Studies Program. This grant is for conducting essential environmental and socioeconomic studies, as mandated by the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) Section 1346. These studies assess and manage potential impacts from offshore oil, gas, or mineral development on human, marine, and coastal environments. OCSLA Section 1345 also enables cooperative agreements with states for shared information and expertise. This announcement specifically funds two projects: COSEE Support for Environmental Studies Program Education and Outreach Efforts (University of Rhode Island) and Applications for Mapping Spilled Oil in Arctic Waters (University of Alaska Fairbanks). These initiatives balance economic development, energy independence, and offshore environmental protection.
