IFYLE Program Funding
How was IFYLE Supported During 2005-2006?
Most of the research will be done by redirecting current efforts. Other
major funding sources include:
-
$450,000 from NOAA Ship Support for chartering large research vessels
including 45 days on EPA;s 180 foot R/V Lake Guardian
-
$450,000 in cost match from EPA's Great Lakes National Program Office,
providing an extra 45 day of ship time on the R/V Lake Guardian.
-
$385,000 in NOAA IOOS funds for expanding GLERL's real-time observation
network in Lake Erie.
-
$250,000 from the National Sea Grant College Program office, $25,000
each from the Ohio and New York Sea Grant , and $7,000 from the Pennsylvania
Sea Grant College programs to fund competitive university collaborative
research
-
Support is also being provided by GLERL, that includes >170 days
of R/V Laurentian and R/V Cyclops availability on Lake Erie, research
scientists, and student interns for the project.
Funding was leveraged with partnerships providing in-kind collaboration
such as access to research vessels and historical and newly collected
data. Funding from National Sea Grant, several Sea Grant programs, and
NOAA-GLERL were used to support non-GLERL researchers on the IFYLE program.
The original RFP, as well as some background information on the program
at the time of the call, are provided below.
