Description of Modification

NOAA publishes this notice to re-solicit proposals for the National Coastal and Estuarine Research and Technology Program (NCERT).

However, the program has amended the Summary Description, Program Priorities, Funding Availability, and the Review and Selection Process to provide more detailed information concerning the objectives of the program, the amount of funding that has been identified, and the review process. This amendment may impact the contents of proposals submitted by applicants in response to the July 11, 2008 solicitation; therefore NCERT is returning all proposals and providing applicants the opportunity to amend their proposals in light of the information provided in this notice.

Description

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) seeks to establish a national estuarine research and technology program which operates in partnership with the National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS). Funds will be used to conduct collaborative research and transform the best available science into practical innovative tools that coastal managers can use to detect, prevent, and reverse the impacts of coastal pollution and habitat degradation. Additionally, the program will provide coastal and estuarine managers a better understanding of what tools are available, how well they work, and how best to apply them to detect, prevent, and reverse the impacts of coastal pollution and habitat degradation.
