About this program

The Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) operates the Hawaii Sustainable Fisheries Development program (CFDA 11.444) to develop commercially viable aquaculture technology for high-value marine finfish species in the United States, with a secondary focus on promoting a sustainable commercial aquaculture industry. The program has not disbursed grant awards since September 2010—over 16 years ago—and shows no sign of current activity.

The program funds applied research and development projects in marine finfish aquaculture, including captive culture of coral reef ornamental fishes, copepod-based hatchery technology, and stock enhancement initiatives. Recent awards reflect work on ornamental reef fish breeding, hatchery systems development, and aquaculture interchange programs. All 11 grants in the portfolio are Project Grants, averaging roughly one award per year between 2006 and 2010.

NOAA has provided all $5.8 million in federal dollars obligated under the program across the 11 awards on record. Award magnitudes in the active period ranged from approximately $97 thousand to $869 thousand per grant, with most falling in the $500 thousand to $700 thousand range. The most recent awards included $730 thousand for development of copepod-based hatchery technology for ornamental reef fishes (2009) and $399 thousand for a no-cost extension on captive culture of coral reef ornamental fishes (2010).

No recent grant opportunities are present in the source. The absence of awards since 2010 and the lack of any posted solicitation suggest the program is dormant or has been superseded. Organizations interested in NOAA aquaculture funding should verify the current status of this Assistance Listing before investing in application development.
