Opportunity Information: Apply for EPA R4 SFL 2017 01
The 2017 South FL Initiative (Funding Opportunity Number: EPA R4 SFL 2017 01) is a competitive funding opportunity released by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to support environmental projects in South Florida, with a specific emphasis on protecting and improving coastal and marine ecosystems. The announcement makes funds available for proposals that advance the goals of two closely related efforts: the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary Water Quality Protection Program and the Southeast Florida Coral Reef Initiative. In practical terms, the grant is meant to back projects that help address water quality and reef-related challenges in the region, aligning with the established objectives of these programs.
This opportunity is categorized as a discretionary funding program, meaning awards are made competitively based on proposal quality and how well an application fits the priorities laid out in the solicitation. Funding may be provided through either a grant or a cooperative agreement, which signals that some projects could involve a more hands-on partnership or substantial involvement from EPA during implementation, depending on the award structure and project needs. The funding activity category is listed as Environment, and it is associated with CFDA number 66.436, which is the federal assistance listing used to track and classify EPA grant programs.
The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $250,000 per award, and EPA anticipated making approximately three awards under this announcement. While the full solicitation would provide the exact evaluation criteria and expected project scopes, the purpose statement makes it clear that proposals must directly support the goals and objectives of the Florida Keys water quality protection work and/or the Southeast Florida coral reef initiative. Applicants should expect that project relevance to these program aims will be a central factor in competitiveness.
Key dates included a creation date of June 19, 2017, and an original closing date of July 25, 2017, with a note indicating that Section IV of the solicitation contains additional information about close dates (for example, clarifications about submission deadlines, time zones, or any phased deadlines). Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others" with a reference to consult the solicitation text for clarification, which typically means the detailed eligibility rules and any exclusions or special conditions are described in the section titled "Additional Information on Eligibility."Apply for EPA R4 SFL 2017 01
