OMB Guidance:
Optional, Additional Overview Content. Following the required
overview information described above, the agency may present other information.
Present any optional overview information in a sequential order that parallels
the organization of the full text of the announcement. Examples of overview
information that could help potential applicants decide whether to read the
full announcement are: a concise description of the funding opportunity, the
total amount to be awarded, the anticipated amounts and/or numbers of
individual awards, the types of instruments that may be awarded, who is
eligible to apply, whether cost sharing is required, and any limitations on the
numbers of applications that each applicant may submit. You also may include
other information that could later help applicants more quickly and easily find
what they need (e.g., where one can get application materials).

Notice of Funding Opportunity Description:
The CSTAR Program represents
an NOAA/NWS effort to create a cost-effective transition from basic and applied
research to operations and services through collaborative research between
operational forecasters and academic institutions which have expertise in the
environmental sciences. These activities will engage researchers and students
in applied research of interest to the operational meteorological community and
will improve the accuracy of forecasts and warnings of environmental hazards by
applying scientific knowledge and information to operational products and
services. The NOAA CSTAR Program is a contributing element of the U.S. Weather
Research Program. NOAA's program is designed to complement other agency
contributions to that national effort.
Notice of Funding Opportunity Description:
This notice announces that
applications may be submitted for a Fellowship program initiated by the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Sea Grant
Office (NSGO), in fulfilling its broad educational responsibilities and
legislative mandate of the Sea Grant Act, to provide educational experience in
the policies and processes of the Legislative and Executive Branches of the
Federal Government to graduate students in marine and aquatic-related fields.
Notice of Funding Opportunity Description:
The California B-WET grant
program, is a competitively based program that supports existing environmental
education programs, fosters the growth of new programs, and encourages the
development of partnerships among environmental education programs throughout
the San Francisco Bay, Monterey Bay, and Santa Barbara Channel watersheds.
Funded projects provide Meaningful Watershed Experiences to students and
teachers.
Notice of Funding Opportunity Description:
This program represents a NOAA/NWS effort
to create a cost-effective continuum of basic and applied research through collaborative
research between the Hydrology Laboratory of the NWS Office of Hydrologic
Development and academic communities or other private or public agencies
which have expertise in the hydrometerologic, hydrologic, and hydraulic
routing sciences. These activities will engage researchers and students in basic
and applied research to improve the scientific understanding of river forecasting.
Ultimately these efforts will improve the accuracy of forecasts and warnings of
rivers and flash floods by applying scientific knowledge and information to NWS
research methods and techniques, resulting in a benefit to the public. NOAA's
program is designed to complement other agency contributions to that national
effort.
The Office of Hydrologic Development requests that interested organizations prepare
a pre-proposal, to be followed by a full-proposal. Full proposals will be prepared
only by those parties that submitted pre-proposals. A notice discouraging
the submission of a full proposal does not preclude submission of a full proposal.
