Dear Colleagues,
The National Sea Grant Office has released two new funding opportunities
supported by the Federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act focusing
on marine debris prevention and removal totaling of $19M in anticipated
awards across the two competitions. Topical areas of interest include
but are not limited to:
• Development of innovative removal and/or interception technologies and
reusable
systems that prevent debris from entering the marine environment.
• Innovative solutions for mitigation and clean-up of derelict fishing
gear and ghost gear.
• Microplastics and nanoplastics.
•Community or coalition building to address marine debris removal or
prevention
•Education/workforce development
*Proposals for this opportunity must be submitted by a Sea Grant
program.* If you are interested in collaborating on a proposal with
Woods Hole Sea Grant, please reach out to Jennie Rheuban at
seagrant-research at whoi.edu to discuss project ideas. For the two calls,
LOIs are due August 9th, 2022 and August 16th, 2022 and full proposals
are due September 30, 2022 and September 15th, 2022 respectively.
/*Please note: *//Sea Grant staff members are expected to have
substantial involvement in both proposal development and project
implementation. As such, WHSG will review project ideas internally
against our //strategic plan
<https://seagrant.whoi.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/2018-2023-Strategic-Plan-Final_12_2020.pdf>//and
available staff capacity to determine if we are able to partner with
entities on potential project ideas. /
All the best,

Both opportunities encourage applicants and awardees to support the
principles of justice, equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility
when writing their proposals and performing their work. The work
completed under these opportunities will place an emphasis on engagement
with communities, groups and localities, especially those that have been
traditionally underrepresented and underserved.
These opportunities are a component of nearly $3 billion in targeted
investments for NOAA
