of the Chesapeake Bay watershed jurisdictions’ (listed below) Watershed Implementation Plans (WIPs).

This RFA is seeking cost-effective applications from eligible applicants for supporting state, regional, and local partners, and other non-federal stakeholders to build the institutional and programmatic capacity for accelerated implementation of agricultural conservation and other nonpoint source programs.

This work will improve coordination and provide technical and logistical support to the CBP partnership’s Water Quality Goal Implementation Team (WQGIT), the Agriculture Workgroup, and the Watershed Technical Workgroup.

Applications should also include technical and coordination support to the nonfederal partners and the appropriate CBP technical workgroups for determining the best means for ensuring all implemented nonpoint source (both agricultural and non-agricultural) best management practices (BMPs) are tracked, verified, reported, and simulated in the suite of CBP partnership models.
