Best Marine Grants in Georgia

The National Sea Grant Law Center is inviting proposals for the Coastal Resilience Program to research laws and policies addressing coastal resilience challenges such as sea level rise and flooding. With a funding cap of $150,000 over two years, this initiative aims to assess the effectiveness of existing policies and promote informed decision-making in coastal management. Up to two projects will be selected for funding, supporting innovative solutions to enhance community resilience against environmental threats.

Hurricane Response Marine Debris Removal Fund

2027 Request for Proposals

National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) established the Hurricane Response Marine Debris Removal Fund to support projects to assess, remove, and dispose of marine debris in and around coastal communities impacted by hurricanes and other episodic storm events.

The Hurricane Response Marine Debris Removal Fund will award grants to remove damaging marine debris from coastal areas of communities impacted by hurricanes or other natural disasters. Priority will be placed on debris removal efforts that reduce impacts on communities and industry as well as prevent further harm to habitats and fish and wildlife populations. Funding has been made available by the FY 2025 American Relief Act, P.L. 118-158.

The Hurricane Response Marine Debris Removal Fund will award up to $11 million in grants in 2027. While there is no minimum or maximum expected award amount, funding request amounts should be appropriate relative to the overall scale and impact of the project.
