Hello!  Could you please distribute this Request for Proposals for marine 
mammal research, funded through the U.S. Marine Mammal Commission?  Thank you!



The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, in partnership with the U.S. Marine 
Mammal Commission, announces the availability of grant funding in the following 
five research and conservation areas:



* Marine Mammals and Climate Change in the Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea

* Calibration of New Methods for Surveying Marine Mammals

* Alternative Observer Coverage for Marine Mammal Species at High Risk from 
Fishery Interactions

* Building Capacity for Marine Mammal Research and Conservation in the 
Caribbean Region

* Assessment and Conservation of Sirenians



All persons, organizations, and agencies are eligible to apply, including 
parties within and outside the United States. Applications for funding for land 
or easement acquisition, political advocacy, lobbying, or litigation will not 
be considered.  The Commission expects that the majority of awards under this 
program will fall in the range of $25,000 to $125,000. However, the Commission 
has not specified upper or lower limits to award size, other than that the 
total amount of awards is not expected to be greater than $400,000. Funding is 
provided by the U.S. Marine Mammal Commission.



Pre-proposals are due on August 5, 2009. To see the full RFP and apply online,
