Subject: NOAA Seeks Proposals to Restore Coastal Habitat, Create Jobs,
Stimulate Economy 

Hello, 

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration announced on Friday that
it is seeking proposals for coastal habitat restoration projects under the
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 in an unprecedented effort to
jumpstart the economy. The effort is designed to create resilient and
healthy American communities by generating and saving jobs, employing
several thousand people, and restoring valuable coastal and marine habitat.

NOAA is formally seeking proposals for a variety of habitat restoration
projects - including wetlands restoration, dam removals, shellfish
restoration, and coral reef restoration. To ensure relevance, readiness and
accountability to the American public, the 30-day solicitation requires that
projects be "shovel-ready." Proposals are due by April 6, 2009.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
