Overview: The Chesapeake Bay Trust, the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the Maryland Department of Transportation’s State Highway Administration, Montgomery County Department of Environmental Protection, and other partners announce a request for proposals for its Restoration Research award program. The goal of this research program is to answer several key restoration questions. Funding partners hope that answering these questions will ultimately lead to increased confidence in proposed restoration project outcomes, clarification of the optimal site conditions in which to apply particular restoration techniques, information useful to regulatory agencies in project permitting, and information that will help guide monitoring programs.

 

What this funds & who can apply: Research to address one or more of the key restoration questions listed in the Request for Proposals (RFP). Both not-for-profit entities (academic institutions, non-profit organizations) and for-profit entities are permitted to apply.

 

Potential applicant Q&A with review panel:  April 16, 2018 (12 pm to 1 pm)

 

Deadline: February 21, 2018 at 4:00 pm
