Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program - FY 2010 Competition

archived

In the Federal Register of January 2, 2009 (74 FR 72, 82), the document entitled Availability of Grant Funds for Fiscal Year 2009 contained an error in the National Ocean Service's entry for its Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program FY 2010 competition. The Funding Availability section of the solicitation incorrectly referenced FY 2010. This notice corrects this error. The forth sentence of the first paragraph of the ``Funding Availability'' section is corrected to read: ``The FY 2009 President's Request for the program is $15 million.'' All other information and requirements of the January 2, 2009 solicitation remain unchanged. The purpose of this document is to advise eligible coastal states and territories (requirements described below) that OCRM is soliciting coastal and estuarine land conservation project proposals for competitive funding under the CELCP. States and territories must have submitted to NOAA a CELCP plan on or before February 24, 2009, in order to be eligible to participate in the FY2010 funding opportunity (see Final Guidelines for Coastal and Estuarine Land Conservation Program for more information on CELCP plan requirements, available at http://coastalmanagement.noaa.gov/land/media/CELCPfinal02Guidelines.pdf. Funding is contingent upon the availability of FY 2010 Federal appropriations. It is anticipated that projects funded under this announcement will have a grant start date between March 1, 2010 and October 1, 2010. The program authority is 16 U.S.C. 1456d.
