CICEET Releases FY 2008 Funding Opportunities
The Cooperative Institute for Coastal and Estuarine Environmental
Technology (CICEET) invites proposals to its FY 2008 funding opportunity
programs. Through these programs, CICEET makes strategic investments in
the development, demonstration, and application of tools to detect,
prevent, and reverse the impacts of coastal pollution and habitat
degradation to coastal ecosystems and communities.
1) CICEET’s Mitigating Shoreline Erosion along Sheltered Coasts Funding
Opportunity seeks to provide a better understanding of how to use
different erosion prevention measures to protect sheltered coastlines
from the impacts of rising sea levels and waves generated by extreme
weather, as well as to protect, preserve, and restore ecosystem function.
2) CICEET’s Environmental Technology Development and Demonstration
Funding Opportunity has the following two goals, developed in support of
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s five-year
strategic plan for research:
• Develop and/or demonstrate technology to detect and quantify the
impacts of human activity on coastal water quality, species, and habitats.
• Develop and/or demonstrate technology to protect coastal water quality
and/or restore coastal habitats.
Both funding opportunities reflect CICEET’s approach to RFP development,
one that incorporates an analysis of the technical and non-technical
factors that influence coastal management problems, and mandates the
active participation of intended end users in technology development and
demonstration.

CICEET, a partnership of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration and the University of New Hampshire, develops tools for
clean water and healthy coastal environments nationwide:
