Opportunity Information: Apply for M17AS00012
The BOEM FY 2017 Environmental Studies Program opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number M17AS00012) is a Department of the Interior, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management cooperative agreement aimed at improving scientific understanding of nearshore ocean conditions in the Beaufort Sea, Alaska. The project focus is wave and hydrodynamic modeling in the nearshore Beaufort, with particular attention to how winds, waves, currents, and sediment transport behave and interact along the coast. The practical driver for this work is to strengthen the information base used to evaluate and manage Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) exploration and development activities, with specific emphasis on the proposed Liberty Development Project in the Beaufort Sea. In other words, the study is intended to provide better modeling and insight into coastal and nearshore physical processes that matter for offshore development planning, environmental review, and risk management in Arctic conditions.
The total anticipated federal funding is about $1.9 million, contingent on appropriations and availability of funds, and the expected period of performance runs from fiscal year 2017 through 2021. Funding is planned to be incremental over those five years, with an anticipated schedule of $500,000 in FY 2017, $500,000 in FY 2018, $400,000 in FY 2019, $300,000 in FY 2020, and $200,000 in FY 2021. BOEM planned to make a single award (one cooperative agreement) in FY 2017 under this announcement, meaning the agency expected to fund one selected proposal rather than multiple projects.
This is a targeted program announcement rather than an open call. It does not invite general submissions from the broader research community; instead, it announces BOEM’s intent to pursue a specific project and to consider proposals only from a limited set of eligible entities. Eligibility is restricted to participants within designated Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) networks, limited to the following regions: North and West Alaska, Pacific Northwest, California, and Hawaii-Pacific Islands. While the broader eligibility categories referenced include state governments and public/state-controlled institutions of higher education, the key gating requirement in the announcement is that proposers must be within the specified CESU regions. The agency also explicitly states that no other proposals are requested at this time, reinforcing that it is a narrowly scoped, invitation-like opportunity.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, not a standard grant, which signals a higher level of federal involvement in the work. BOEM indicated that its scientists would have substantial involvement in multiple aspects of study development and/or study conduct. In practical terms, that usually means BOEM expects active collaboration on technical direction, study design decisions, data and modeling approaches, and interpretation or application of results to BOEM’s mission needs. The announcement also notes an exception for tasks performed by federal partners, reflecting standard federal assistance rules when other federal entities participate.
Administrative details reflect that the opportunity falls under the discretionary category, with activity areas in energy and environment, and CFDA number 15.423. The notice was created March 16, 2017, and the original closing date was April 28, 2017, with an award ceiling of $1,900,000 and one expected award. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a BOEM-led, collaboratively executed modeling study designed to produce actionable, nearshore Beaufort Sea physical oceanography insights to support decision-making related to Arctic OCS development, especially the Liberty project.Apply for M17AS00012
