About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research is soliciting applications for special projects and programs aligned with NOAA's strategic plan and mission goals, with a rolling due date of September 30, 2026. This Broad Agency Announcement funds research, education, outreach, and innovative projects not addressed through NOAA's other competitive programs via grants or cooperative agreements.
Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education, nonprofits, commercial organizations, international or foreign organizations or governments, individuals, and state, local, and Indian Tribal governments. Federal organizations are excluded unless funding authority exists through an interagency agreement process. Applicants must route submissions to the BAA of the specific NOAA Line Office that best fits the proposal; separate solicitations exist for the 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 identical applications to multiple Line Offices, applicants must identify this in the application and notify relevant contacts for internal coordination.
No specific budget is allocated to this announcement; funding is contingent on appropriations. Recent awards under CFDA 11.015 have ranged from $8,710 to $19.5 million, with most falling between $30,000 and $750,000. Since 2019, the program has disbursed 38 awards totaling $40.8 million federal dollars, with activity accelerating in recent years. Awards comprise predominantly Project Grants (58 percent), Cooperative Agreements (34 percent), and Block Grants (8 percent). Applications are evaluated within 3 to 6 months of receipt. Continuation grants for multi-year projects may be made annually, subject to available funding and satisfactory performance. The program supports maintaining and improving marine and coastal ecosystem viability, delivering weather and climate services, understanding climate change science, and supporting global commerce and transportation.
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 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 one 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.
