Opportunity Summary:
The 2013 Marine National Monument Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NOAA NMFS PIRO 2013 2003627) is a competitive NOAA grant run through the Department of Commerce, specifically NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Pacific Islands Regional Office. The core purpose is public engagement and education focused on NOAA's statutory authorities and management role connected to four U.S. Marine National Monuments: the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument, Rose Atoll Marine National Monument, Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument, and Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument. The program is built around the idea that when people better understand why the ocean and coasts matter and how large marine protected areas function, it becomes easier to sustain long-term support for marine conservation at both local and national levels.
NOAA is looking for projects that communicate about these monuments and help educate the public through either formal education (for example, curriculum-based work through schools or universities) or informal education (such as community events, exhibits, outreach campaigns, interpretation products, workshops, digital media, or other learning experiences outside a traditional classroom). The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a grant as the funding instrument type. The activity categories tied to the notice include education, environment, and science and technology and other research and development, which signals that proposals can blend education and outreach with credible science-based content, as long as the emphasis remains on public communication and learning.
Funding for this notice is expected to total about $40,000, though the announcement notes that actual availability depends on the FY2013 Congressional appropriation. Individual awards are expected to range from a floor of $5,000 up to a ceiling of $30,000, and NOAA anticipates making around five awards. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for smaller organizations or community-based efforts that may not have access to additional funding sources.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of applicants: individuals; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status; public and private institutions of higher education; small businesses and other for-profit organizations (including those that are not small businesses); county governments; city or township governments; state governments; Native American tribal organizations (including federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations). Proposals are selected competitively by NOAA/NMFS, meaning applicants should expect their submissions to be evaluated against each other based on the agency's review criteria described in the full announcement.
Key dates for the opportunity indicate it was posted and created on January 24, 2013, with a closing date of March 15, 2013, and an archive date of April 14, 2013. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Kara Miller at the NOAA/NMFS Pacific Islands Regional Office, located at 1601 Kapiolani Blvd, Suite 1110, Honolulu, HI 96814, phone 808-944-2147.
