Additional Information on Eligibility:
Eligible applicants are individuals, institutions of

Federal and eligible Federal applicants (including NOAA and MARAD
employees) will be evaluated in the same selection process. Note:
Before non-NOAA Federal applicants may be funded, they must demonstrate
that they have legal authority to receive funds from another Federal
agency in excess of their appropriation. Because this announcement is

Act (31 U.S.C. 1535) is not an appropriate legal basis. Only those who
submit Letters of Intent by the Letters of Intent deadline are eligible
to submit full proposals.

Description
The Ballast Water Management Demonstration
Program supports projects to develop, test, and demonstrate ballast
water technologies and practices in order to reduce the threat of
introduction of aquatic invasive species to U.S. waters through the
discharge of ballast water. This FFO is for projects dealing with
technologies and practices necessary for successful ballast water
management. For example, this could include technologies or practices
that treat ballast water, or that make it possible to test, evaluate,
regulate or use ballast water treatment technologies or practices.
There is a separate FFO for establishing a Research, Development,
Testing and Evaluation (RDTE) Facility (Funding Opportunity Number:
OAR-SG-2008-2001279).
