About this program
The Department of the Interior Bureau of Ocean Energy Management administers the Coastal Impact Assistance Program (CIAP, CFDA 15.426), which funds coastal conservation, wetland protection, wildlife mitigation, marine management plan implementation, and onshore infrastructure projects and public services related to outer Continental Shelf activities in eligible producing states and coastal political subdivisions. The program is inactive as a funding vehicle: the most recent grant award was disbursed on January 1, 2012, and no recent grant opportunities are posted.
The program historically operated on a concentrated, high-volume cadence, with 366 total awards spanning 2008 through early 2012. Peak funding years were 2010 (147 awards) and 2011 (121 awards), followed by a sharp decline to 1 award in 2012. Combined federal dollars obligated totaled $211.4 million across the portfolio, with a negligible non-federal cost-share component ($0.5 million additional). The Department of the Interior Bureau of Ocean Energy Management accounted for 348 awards ($200.7 million in federal dollars), with the broader Department of the Interior contributing 18 awards ($10.6 million).
Awards were structured almost entirely as Formula Grants (360 of 366 awards, or 98 percent), with minimal use of Cooperative Agreements (3 awards) and Block Grants (2 awards). Representative recent awards included Surfside Beach & Dune Restoration ($3.1 million), awarded September 2, 2011; Joseph T. Jones Park Educational Boardwalk, Pedestrian Bike Trail and Educational Pavilion ($2.94 million), awarded May 9, 2011; acquisition of Perdido River Longleaf Hills South Addition ($6.957 million), awarded April 19, 2011; and Louisiana state administration of CIAP ($6 million), awarded August 10, 2011. Individual project awards ranged from under one thousand dollars to multi-million-dollar allocations, with typical project-level awards falling between $100 thousand and $1 million. Eligible recipients included coastal states, municipalities, and regional entities across Alaska, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, California, and other producing coastal jurisdictions.
