Opportunity Information: Apply for NOAA NOS NCCOS 2020 2006219
The National Competitive Harmful Algal Bloom Programs opportunity is a NOAA research funding solicitation run through the National Ocean Service (NOS), National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS), and the Competitive Research Program (CRP). It invites proposals in two closely related areas: the Prevention, Control and Mitigation of Harmful Algal Blooms (PCMHAB) program, and the HAB Socioeconomics Research program. In practical terms, NOAA is looking for applied research that either reduces the occurrence and impacts of harmful algal blooms through prevention or intervention strategies, or improves understanding of the human, economic, and community consequences of HAB events so decision-makers can respond more effectively. Awards are made as cooperative agreements, which generally means NOAA expects an active level of involvement during the project period compared to a standard grant.
Funding under this announcement is tied to the availability of Fiscal Year 2020 federal appropriations, and NOAA anticipated a project start date of September 1, 2020 for selected proposals. For the first year across both program areas, NOAA estimated that about 2,500,000 dollars could be available in total. The solicitation is structured around two project sizes. For "small" projects, NOAA expected to fund roughly 4 to 6 awards, each lasting up to 3 years, at an annual level of about 200,000 to 400,000 dollars per proposal. For "large" projects, which are only available under PCMHAB (not the socioeconomics track), NOAA expected to fund about 1 to 2 awards, each lasting up to 4 years, at about 500,000 to 600,000 dollars per year per proposal. NOAA also set firm total budget caps across the entire project period: proposals would not be accepted if they exceeded 1,200,000 dollars total for small projects or 2,400,000 dollars total for large projects.
Administratively, this is a discretionary federal funding opportunity under the Department of Commerce, categorized under environment, natural resources, science and technology, and other research and development activities. The CFDA number listed is 11.478. The funding opportunity number is NOAA NOS NCCOS 2020 2006219. The notice was created on October 10, 2019, and the original application closing date was January 8, 2020. NOAA projected approximately 6 total awards, and the listed award ceiling is 600,000 dollars, which aligns with the top end of the annual range for the large PCMHAB projects.
For applicants, proposals were required to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov, and NOAA encouraged applicants to sign up on Grants.gov to receive any amendments or updates to the announcement. NOAA also pointed prospective applicants to program background material, FAQs, and additional details hosted on the NCCOS PCMHAB web pages. In addition, NOAA planned to offer an informational webinar led by a program manager within about two weeks of the funding opportunity announcement publication date, with the schedule posted on the same NCCOS PCMHAB website. Eligibility is broadly listed as "Others" with clarification expected in the full eligibility section of the official announcement, so applicants would need to consult the complete notice text to confirm whether their organization type qualifies and whether any special conditions apply.Apply for NOAA NOS NCCOS 2020 2006219
