Opportunity snapshot. This Grants.gov announcement - AT-22-08: Sediment-borne Wave Disturbances and Propagation and Potential Effects on Benthic Fauna - is cataloged under number M22AS00274 and tied to CFDA assistance listing 15.423, posted by Bureau of Ocean Energy Management. Grants.gov currently shows the opportunity as closed, first posted on April 21, 2022. The funding category is Discretionary, delivered as a cooperative agreement.

Award economics. The award range on file is $450,000 -- $500,000. The agency has projected $500,000 in total estimated funding for this announcement. Cost sharing is not required, so applicants do not need to commit matching funds to be competitive on this opportunity. Federal award ranges are often upper bounds; actual allocations reflect program appropriations, the strength of the applicant pool, and the evaluation committee's scoring.

Deadline and action path. This opportunity closed on May 23, 2022. Future funding cycles may be published under the same CFDA number, so monitoring the parent program page is the most reliable way to catch re-announcements. Every Grants.gov submission requires an active SAM.gov registration and a Unique Entity ID. Review the Eligibility section below carefully, federal eligibility categories (nonprofit, state or local government, tribal, individual, educational institution, small business) have distinct registration and reporting requirements. Pre-application outreach to the listed agency contact is permitted and often welcomed, it helps clarify scope and scoring priorities.

Description

The purpose of this study is to investigate the physical properties of substrate-borne wave disturbances and propagation through the sediment from offshore wind project installation and operation, and to predict the potential effects on benthic fauna. Although environmental impacts from substrate-borne particle motion from pile driving have been widely recognized as potential major effects on marine benthic organisms, very little research has been conducted to address these types of vibroacoustic disturbances (Popper & Hawkins, 2018; Hawkins et al., 2021). Therefore, the proposed study reflects ESP’s vision statement to be “first in class” in being the best research program possible in the context of BOEM’s mission and constraints. In addition, though this study is proposed to address substrate-borne vibroacoustic characteristics and propagation from offshore wind farm construction (pile driving), results from this study have wide application for many marine engineering activities that are coupled with seabed, such as subsea drilling and dredging, offshore structure removal, and UXO detonation.
