Opportunity Information: Apply for NOAA NMFS HCPO 2021 2006812
The Fiscal Year 2021 Chesapeake Bay Fisheries Research Program is a competitive federal funding opportunity run by the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office (NCBO) within the U.S. Department of Commerce. The program exists because NCBO is directed by law to provide technical assistance that supports Chesapeake Bay living resources and habitat management. In practical terms, the funded work is meant to strengthen the science that managers rely on by: (1) identifying science-based management options for restoring and protecting fisheries and their habitats, (2) monitoring and assessing the status and trends of those living resources and habitats, and (3) evaluating how well management plans are being implemented and whether they are working as intended.
Funding is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means NOAA expects to be actively involved in the project beyond simply providing funds (for example, through coordination, data sharing, or technical input). For FY 2021, NOAA anticipated making up to about $250,000 total available across the competition. The notice projected around five awards, with an award ceiling of $125,000 per project. Projects are expected to directly address the program priorities described in the announcement (referenced as Section I.B.1 through I.B.2), and the program encourages proposals that are collaborative and interdisciplinary, especially those that bring together multiple partners and leverage other sources of funding, data, staff time, or in-kind support.
The selection preferences are clearly oriented toward practical, near-term decision support. Proposals are favored when they have a clear management application in the near future rather than being purely academic or long-range. NOAA also emphasizes place-based work: projects focused on specific tributaries or watersheds are preferred when that focus helps improve understanding of local ecosystem dynamics in a way that can inform targeted management or restoration. Another explicit preference is meant to broaden participation: priority will be given to principal investigators who have not received funding through this specific Chesapeake Bay Fisheries Research Program within the past five years.
Administratively, the opportunity is listed as discretionary funding under Funding Opportunity Number NOAA NMFS HCPO 2021 2006812 and CFDA 11.457, with the activity area described as environment, natural resources, science and technology, and other research and development. The opportunity opened around February 22, 2021, with an original application deadline of April 26, 2021. Eligibility is noted as "Others" with additional clarification referenced in the full announcement, so applicants would need to check the eligibility section in the official posting to confirm which organizations or entity types can apply.
To help potential applicants understand the requirements and priorities, NOAA scheduled an informational webinar for February 26, 2021 at 1:00 PM Eastern Time, with registration provided through the listed GoToWebinar link. This kind of webinar is typically used to walk through the scope of the program, expectations for deliverables, how proposals are reviewed, and what makes an application more competitive under the stated priorities and preferences.Apply for NOAA NMFS HCPO 2021 2006812
