No facsimile or electronic mail
applications will be accepted. Address
for Submitting Proposals: Applications
must be submitted through https://

Review and Selection Process: Once a

will be conducted to determine
completeness of the application. All
proposals will be evaluated and scored
individually in accordance with the
assigned weights of the evaluation
criteria by three merit reviewers and/or
a panel of reviewers.
The selecting official will not score
proposals as part of the merit review nor
participate in discussion of the merits of
the proposal.
Recommendations for funding will
then be forwarded to the selecting
official, the Chief of the Estuarine
Reserves Division, for the final funding
decision. In making the final selections,
the Chief will award in rank order
unless the proposal is justified to be
selected out of rank order based on the
selection factors listed in section V.C
‘‘Selection Criteria’’ of the original
Federal Funding Opportunity.
Investigators may be asked to modify
objectives, work plans or budgets based
on funds available, and provide
supplemental information required by

made. Declined applications will be
held in the OCRM/ERD for the required
3 years in accordance with the current
