Description
The NOAA Marine Debris Program (MDP), authorized in the Marine Debris Act (33 U.S.C. § 1951-1958), provides funding to address the adverse impacts of marine debris on the United States economy, the marine environment, and navigation safety through the identification, determination of sources, assessment, prevention, reduction, and removal of marine debris. Funds available through this solicitation were allocated to MDP in furtherance of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2019 Pub. L. 116-113, Title IX to carry out Section 3 of the Marine Debris Act (33 U.S.C. § 1952) in the North American region. The purpose of this competition is to address marine debris issues of mutual interest in the border areas of the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Successful proposals through this solicitation will be funded through cooperative agreements. Funding of up to $5,000,000 is expected to be available for Marine Debris Prevention and Removal grants in FY2021. Typical awards for this competition will range from $150,000 - $750,000. The MDP anticipates that between 6 and 12 projects will be awarded under this solicitation. Projects funded through this notification will be for a term of up to two years. This solicitation is focused on efforts to:1) prevent land- and sea-based debris from entering the marine and Great Lakes environment through targeted engagement and outreach efforts that aim to support more sustainable practices, resulting in less waste generated; 2) remove priority debris types from the environment and support alternative disposal of removed debris. Efforts combining prevention and removal efforts will also be considered. It is not intended for scientific research.
