NOAA Seeks Proposals to Restore Coastal Habitat, Create Jobs, Stimulate Economy

NOAA Seeking "Shovel-Ready" Habitat Restoration Proposals

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration announced today that it is seeking proposals for coastal habitat restoration projects under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 in an unprecedented effort to jumpstart the economy. The effort is designed to create resilient and healthy American communities by generating and saving jobs, employing several thousand people, and restoring valuable coastal and marine habitat.

NOAA is formally seeking proposals for a variety of habitat restoration projects - including wetlands restoration, dam removals, shellfish restoration, and coral reef restoration. To ensure relevance, readiness and accountability to the American public, the 30-day solicitation requires that projects be "shovel-ready." Proposals are due by April 6, 2009. For more information about this federal funding opportunity, please visit: http://www.habitat.noaa.gov/recovery.
  

Please look for more information in the coming weeks as NOAA rolls out its implementation plan. If you have any questions, please contact us at RC.Newsletter@noaa.gov or 301-713-0174.
