Opportunity Summary:

The Republic of the Marshall Islands Special Medical Care and Logistics grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DE-FOA-0000711) is a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) discretionary funding opportunity offered through a Cooperative Agreement. Its core aim is to support a program that delivers special medical care services, provides the logistical backbone needed to operate those services, and conducts environmental monitoring for selected atolls in the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI). The work is designed to be carried out in close coordination with the national government of the RMI as well as local atoll governments and community members, with an emphasis on operating in a culturally sensitive way.

A key point in the posted notice is that it is a modification to the original Funding Opportunity Announcement rather than a brand-new program announcement. The modification specifically changes the application deadline shown in two places in the FOA (the cover page and Part IV, paragraph E.2). The updated due date is May 18, 2012, with applications required to be submitted no later than 11:59:59 PM Eastern Time. The original closing date had been May 11, 2012, so the modification effectively extends the deadline by one week.

From a funding perspective, DOE anticipated making a single award under this opportunity (Expected Awards: 1). The estimated total funding available is $19,000,000, and the award ceiling is also listed as $19,000,000, indicating the program was structured around one large cooperative agreement up to that amount. The award floor is $0, which is a standard listing format and does not necessarily mean zero-dollar awards would be made. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility.

The opportunity is categorized under the Health activity area and is associated with CFDA number 81.108, titled "Epidemiology and Other Health Studies Financial Assistance Program." Eligibility is listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may appear in the full announcement text. The opportunity was posted on March 30, 2012, reflects a creation date of May 7, 2012 (consistent with the timing of the modification), and lists an archive date of August 11, 2012.

For applicants needing the full official details, the announcement references an additional information link hosted through FedConnect. The notice also provides a point of contact for access issues: Kyle C. Martel, Contract Specialist at DOE Headquarters, reachable at kyle.martel@hq.doe.gov.
