Opportunity Summary:
The Chesapeake Bay Program Office Fiscal Year 2009 Request for Proposals (RFP) is a competitive grant opportunity from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) aimed at selecting one recipient to provide multimedia communications support for the Chesapeake Bay Partnership. The central purpose is to strengthen how the Partnership communicates with different audiences across the Bay watershed by producing practical, high-quality communication tools and products. These materials are meant to deliver clear, carefully crafted messages that do more than inform; they are intended to influence behavior, encourage stewardship, and support the broader goal of restoring the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries by motivating action among residents, stakeholders, and other target groups.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary grant under CFDA 66.466 (Chesapeake Bay Program). EPA expects to make a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $65,000. Cost sharing or matching is required, meaning applicants should be prepared to document and commit non-federal resources as part of their project budget and overall approach. The RFP emphasizes that the recipient will need to meet specified expected environmental results, tying communications outputs to real-world outcomes by helping drive changes in public behavior and strengthening involvement in Bay restoration efforts.
A range of applicants are eligible, including state governments, county governments, city or township governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The notice also references an "Others" category with additional eligibility clarification provided in the full announcement, and it directs applicants to Section III for complete eligibility requirements. Because this is a competitive selection, applicants are expected to follow the RFP process and provide the information requested in the official announcement, including how their proposed multimedia support functions will effectively reach intended audiences and help advance stewardship and restoration priorities.
Key dates for the solicitation include a posted and creation date of January 29, 2009, and an application closing date of March 19, 2009. The archive date is April 18, 2009, indicating the period after which the opportunity was formally closed and retained for record purposes.
