Coral Reef Conservation Program International Coral Reef Conservation Cooperative Agreements
The NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP) provides matching grants for international coral reef conservation projects.
CRCP solicits proposals that will support the NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program’s International Strategy 2010-2015 (International Strategy).
The International Strategy focuses on supporting existing regional efforts in four priority regions based on their interconnections with U. S. reef ecosystems and existing initiatives and partnerships.
Two of these four priority regions will be considered under this Federal Funding Opportunity:
the Wider Caribbean and Micronesia.Funding for the Fiscal Year 2016 competition is subject to the availability of Congressional appropriations and is expected to be approximately $600,00 0. NOAA expects each applicant will request between $75,000 and $300,000 annually for an award with a project period up to two years.
Funding after the first year generally depends on future Congressional appropriations, NOAA/CRCP priorities, and recipient performance in the first year(s) of the award.
