Description: For FY2012, the NOAA National Sea Grant College Program and Office of Program Planning and Integration anticipate making available up to $200,000 for projects that support the National Sea Grant College Program Strategic Plan 2009-2013 and the NOAA FY2012 Annual Guidance Memorandum. These regional collaboration grants will be awarded only to proposals endorsed jointly by the NOAA Regional Teams and the Sea Grant programs in the region. Although other federal, state, tribal, Native Hawaiian, other native cultures, academic and non-profit or non-governmental organizations can act as partners, the Project PI and co-PI of the grant must be a NOAA Federal employee and a Sea Grant Program employee. Requests for individual projects may not exceed $25,000. NOAA employees, non-Federal applicants, or both are eligible to receive funds on each proposal. Up to eight grants (one per NOAA region) of up to $25,000 each are expected to be awarded through a competitive process, subject to the availability of funds and number and quality of proposals received.
