Sea Grant National Strategic Investments in Aquatic Nuisance Species, Oyster Disease, and Gulf of Mexico Oyster Industry
Sea Grant has published in the Federal Register, Vol. 67, No. 154, August 9, 2002, a request for proposals for three research programs:
(1) The Aquatic Nuisance Species Program, which seeks to fund research and outreach projects for the prevention and control of introduction and spread of aquatic nuisance species.
(2) The Oyster Disease Program, which seeks to fund innovative research that provides technology and management strategies to combat oyster disease and bring about the restoration of oysters and the oyster industry in US coastal areas.
(3) The Gulf of Mexico Oyster Industry Program, which is a long term, a research-based program aimed at assisting the oyster industry in states adjoining the Gulf of Mexico to achieve full economic recovery and sustainable oyster production.
To support projects in the above three programs, Sea Grant expects to
provide a total of about $5,600,000, $4,000,000, and $2,000,000 respectively,
over a two-year period (FY2003 and FY2004). Matching funds equal to a
minimum of 50% of the Federal request must be provided.
