About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is soliciting applications for special projects and programs aligned with NOAA's strategic plan and mission goals under a rolling Broad Agency Announcement with a final due date of September 30, 2026. This mechanism funds research, education and outreach, innovative projects, or sponsorships not addressed through NOAA's competitive discretionary programs and is not available to fund existing NOAA awards.

Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education, nonprofits, commercial organizations, state, local, and Indian Tribal governments, individuals, and international or foreign organizations or governments. Federal organizations are outside the scope of this announcement. Applicants must submit to the BAA for the specific NOAA Line Office that best fits their project—separate BAAs exist for National Marine Fisheries Service, National Ocean Service, National Weather Service, Office of Atmospheric Research, Office of Education, and National Environmental Satellite Data Information Service. If submitting the same application to multiple line offices, applicants must identify this in their submission and notify relevant contacts for internal coordination.

No specific award ceiling, floor, or expected number of awards is stated. Recent awards under this program have ranged from $8,710 to $19.5 million, with most falling between $30,000 and $750,000. Awards may be made as grants or cooperative agreements. Continuation grants can be made on an annual basis for approved multi-year projects, subject to fiscal year funding availability and satisfactory performance.

NOAA will notify successful applicants by electronic award notice typically within 180 calendar days of receipt of a complete and acceptable application, though timelines may exceed this. Budget narratives must comply with 2 CFR 200 and include detailed justification by object class category using SF-424A or SF-424C forms. Recipients must comply with environmental standards under the National Environmental Policy Act, National Historic Preservation Act, Executive Order 11988 (Floodplain Management), and Executive Order 11990 (Protection of Wetlands).

The Assistance Listing number is 11.015.

Synopsis

This notice is not a mechanism to fund existing NOAA awards. The purpose of this notice is to request applications for special projects and programs associated with NOAA's strategic plan and mission goals, as well as to provide the general public with information and guidelines on how NOAA will select applications and administer discretionary Federal assistance under this Broad Agency Announcement (BAA). Each NOAA Line or Staff Office that supports financial assistance (National Marine Fisheries Service, National Ocean Service, National Weather Service, Office of Atmospheric Research, Office of Education, and National Environmental Satellite Data Information Service) has a separate BAA found in Grants.gov, so applicants should submit their application to the BAA for the Line Office that best fits their application. A description of NOAA Line Offices is found at https://www.corporateservices.noaa.gov/public/lineoffices.html and https://www.noaa.gov/office-education, and applicants may contact the Agency Contacts in Section VII. below for more information. If you submit the same application to more than Line Office, mention this in your application and notify the relevant contacts in Section VII. so that NOAA may coordinate internally.

Eligibility

Eligible applicants may be institutions of higher education, nonprofits, commercial organizations, international or foreign organizations or governments, individuals, state, local, and Indian Tribal governments. Eligibility also depends on the statutory authority that permits NOAA to fund the proposed activity. Funding of Federal organizations is outside the scope of this announcement; if funding authority exists, Federal organizations seeking NOAA funds should contact relevant program officials about the interagency agreement process.
