About this opportunity

This Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) seeks applications for special projects and programs aligned with its strategic plan and mission goals. The purpose is to fund a wide range of activities including research, education, outreach, and innovative initiatives across scientific and environmental domains such as marine conservation, climate research, and advanced technology development. Eligible applicants include higher education institutions, non-profits, commercial organizations, and state/local/tribal governments. Proposals will be evaluated based on criteria like importance/relevance, technical/scientific merit, qualifications, and cost. Applications can be submitted on a rolling basis through September 30, 2026, with awards made as either grants or cooperative agreements depending on NOAA's involvement level.

While no specific funding amounts are predetermined, recent BAA awards have ranged from $15,000 small grants to large cooperative agreements exceeding $9 million. The work is performed nationwide to support NOAA's research initiatives across various marine and coastal environments. Funding is contingent upon congressional appropriations, and proposed project durations typically span 1 to 5 years.

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.
