OpportunityTitle: Eagle Impact Minimization Technologies and Field Testing Opportunities
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: DOE/NNSA Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs) are eligible to apply for funding as a Prime Recipient or Subrecipient.    Non-DOE/NNSA FFRDCs are eligible to apply for funding as a Subrecipient, but are not eligible to apply as a Prime Recipient.    Federal agencies and instrumentalities (other than DOE) are eligible to apply for funding as a Subrecipient, but are not eligible to apply as a Prime Recipient.
Description: The complete Funding Opportunity Announcement can be accessed on the EERE Exchange website at https://eere-exchange.energy.gov This Funding Opportunity Announcement is soliciting applications that propose projects supporting eagle detection, classification, and impact minimization technologies in three Topic Areas. Topic Area 1 will intend to support research on eagle ability to sense and respond to stimuli, in an effort to identify signals that will serve as optimal deterrents. Topic Area 2 will intend to further the technical readiness of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 5-6 detect and deter and informed curtailment systems through technical improvement and testing activities. Topic area 3 will intend to support the demonstration of a proposed TRL 7+ detection and/or minimization technology at an operational wind facility at a scale sufficient to provide an accurate demonstration of efficacy through a statistically significant reduction of impact at a reasonable cost. Submission Deadline for Concept Papers: 7/22/2016 Submission Deadline for Applications: 9/15/2016
