This grant from the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), administered by the NOAA Restoration Center, aims to support proactive Coastal and Marine Habitat Restoration. Its purpose is to foster recovery of threatened/endangered species and managed fish stocks through habitat-based approaches. Proposals must identify specific habitat issues, detail on-the-ground restoration actions, and describe measurable impacts on target species. Funding is via multi-year cooperative agreements, with up to $20 million anticipated through FY15. Awards typically range from $500,000 to $5 million over three years. Submissions under $100,000 or over $10 million are ineligible.

| Description: | The principal objective of the National Marine Fisheries Service’s (NMFS) Coastal and Marine Habitat Restoration Project solicitation is to identify and support proactive restoration project(s), which use a habitat-based approach to foster species recovery and increase fish production. Proposals submitted under this solicitation will be selected based on their ability to demonstrate how the proposed habitat restoration actions will help recover threatened and endangered species listed under the Endangered Species Act (hereafter, Listed Species), sustain or help rebuild fish stocks managed under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (hereafter, Managed Species), or benefit other coastal and marine species with a nexus to NMFS management. Successful proposals will 1) identify a habitat-based issue/concern limiting the recovery or sustainability of one or more target species (e.g. fish, marine mammals, sea turtles); 2) identify the project(s)’ outcome goal(s) and describe in detail the actions and on-the-ground habitat restoration project(s) to be undertaken to resolve the issue/concern and; 3) describe the measurable impact on the target species, including evaluation techniques. Proposals selected for funding through this solicitation will primarily be funded through cooperative agreements. Multi-year cooperative agreement awards will be considered, and additional releases of funds may be used to fund selected proposals through FY15 without further competition. Awards are dependent upon the amount of funds Congress makes available to NOAA for this purpose in the FY13-FY15 budgets. NOAA anticipates approximately $20 million may be available over the next three years to maintain selected awards, dependent upon the level of funding made available by Congress. NOAA anticipates typical awards will range from $500,000 to $5 million over three years. NOAA will not accept proposals with a budget of less than $100,000 or more than $10 million. One, two, or three year proposals will be accepted. Funds will be administered by the NOAA Restoration Center. |
