On March 8, 2021, NOAA is hosting a webinar for potential applicants to learn more about the FY 2021 Atlantic Salmon Habitat Restoration Partnership Grants funding opportunity. The webinar will begin at 1 p.m. EST and last for approximately 1 hour.

Participants will:

• Learn about funding priorities and the application process. 
• Receive tips for submitting competitive proposals. 
• Have the opportunity to ask questions.

On February 9, NOAA announced the availability of approximately $1 million in 2021 to institutions of higher education, non-profit organizations, commercial (for profit) organizations, and governments of U.S. territories, states, and local municipalities, as well as Native American tribal governments, to implement habitat restoration actions that will restore habitat for Atlantic salmon in the Gulf of Maine region. The Gulf of Maine distinct population segment (DPS) of Atlantic salmon is listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act. It is also a Species in the Spotlight, one of nine species most at risk of extinction in the near future.
