Opportunity Information: Apply for NOAA NMFS PRPO 2022 2006985
The Species Recovery Grants to States (Section 6 Program) is a federal funding opportunity run by NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), specifically ESA Section 6 (16 U.S.C. 1535). The program is built around the idea that states are essential partners in recovering marine and anadromous species that are listed as endangered or threatened, because many of these species spend all or part of their life cycle in state waters. Through this solicitation, NMFS provides financial assistance to eligible state agencies so they can develop, strengthen, and carry out conservation programs that directly support ESA-listed species under NMFS jurisdiction, and it emphasizes cooperative, state-federal implementation.
Funding can be awarded as either a grant or a cooperative agreement, and it is meant to support practical, on-the-ground and programmatic recovery work. Eligible activities are broad and can include the development and implementation of management actions, applied scientific research that fills key knowledge gaps for recovery, and public education and outreach efforts that reduce threats or increase compliance and stewardship. In addition to work on listed endangered and threatened species, the program can also support monitoring for species that are candidates for listing, species proposed for listing, and species that have been recently delisted, which helps maintain conservation gains and track changing status over time.
NMFS particularly encourages proposals that advance recovery for several high-priority endangered species identified through its Species in the Spotlight initiative. The solicitation highlights the Gulf of Maine distinct population segment (DPS) of Atlantic salmon, the Cook Inlet DPS of beluga whales, North Atlantic right whales, the southern resident DPS of killer whales, Hawaiian monk seals, white abalone, and the Pacific leatherback sea turtle. While proposals can address any NMFS-listed marine or anadromous species, applications targeting these spotlight species are explicitly encouraged, reflecting an agency focus on species facing especially urgent extinction risk and recovery challenges.
Only state governments are eligible applicants, and a key eligibility requirement is having a formal agreement with NMFS under ESA Section 6(c). A state agency must already have this agreement in place, or must enter into one within 30 days of the application deadline, to qualify under this solicitation. The opportunity is identified as a discretionary program under CFDA 11.472, administered by the Department of Commerce through NOAA/NMFS.
This particular notice covers proposal submission and selection procedures for fiscal year 2022 and notes that some elements differ from the prior year, so applicants are expected to follow the current instructions carefully. The original application closing date listed is November 1, 2021, and NMFS anticipated making around five awards. The stated maximum federal funding per award (award ceiling) is $900,000. An important limitation is that proposals focused on Pacific salmonids are not eligible under this grant program; those projects are directed instead to a separate NMFS funding source, the Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund.Apply for NOAA NMFS PRPO 2022 2006985
