The National Sea Grant College Program (Sea Grant) invites proposals for its 2013 Special Projects, an initiative designed to support unique research and other projects. This opportunity focuses on initiatives that align with Sea Grant’s strategic focus areas but are not typically funded through their standard national competitions. Eligibility is restricted to existing Sea Grant Programs. While no specific funding is currently dedicated, awards are contingent upon funds becoming available during the year, with details on matching requirements or other restrictions to be announced. This mechanism encourages innovative proposals from within the Sea Grant network, providing a pathway for projects outside the usual funding avenues, with clear guidelines on proposal selection and Federal assistance administration.
