About this program
The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is distributing disaster relief and recovery funding under the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 (CFDA 11.022), with the most recent grant award issued on September 1, 2020.
The program is no longer actively soliciting applications. The portfolio shows 95 total federal grant awards disbursed between September 2018 and September 2020, with the heaviest award activity in 2019 (83 awards). No grant opportunities have been posted recently, and the source indicates that future solicitations will be developed and published by the Department of Commerce after the CFDA program entry is published.
Funded activities concentrate on three categories: fishery disaster relief and economic restoration following hurricanes and salmon stock failures; hurricane forecast model and prediction system improvements; and repair and restoration of hurricane-damaged facilities including research reserves, education centers, and monitoring infrastructure. Representative awards include $53.5 million to the State of Alaska for Gulf of Alaska pink salmon disaster relief (2019), $41.7 million to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission for hurricane recovery and fisheries restoration (2019), and $11.7 million to the University of Texas Marine Science Institute for Mission-Aransas National Estuarine Research Reserve hurricane recovery and resilience improvements (2019). Forecast improvement awards span data assimilation system enhancements, hurricane track and intensity modeling, and satellite observation integration, such as $4 million to UCAR for Joint Center for Satellite Data Assimilation infrastructure development (2019).
The program is predominantly structured around Cooperative Agreements, which account for 86 of 95 awards (91 percent), with the remainder Project Grants. NOAA is the sole funding agency. Combined federal dollars obligated total $261.3 million across the portfolio, with no non-federal cost-sharing. Award magnitudes range from under $40 thousand for specific instrument replacement to multi-million-dollar disaster relief distributions. The program appears designed specifically to address disaster relief appropriations authorized by the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, with limited or concluded funding availability as of 2020.
