SUMMARY: This notice extends the proposal submission deadline for the
NOAA Rear Admiral Richard T. Brennan Ocean Mapping Matching Fund
program by two weeks to November 12, 2021. Notice of the Brennan
Matching Fund opportunity originally appeared in the Federal Register
on July 27, 2021 (86 FR 40197, pages 40197-40200, 2021-15970, or at:
<a href="https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/07/27/2021-15970/notice-of-matching-fund-opportunity-for-ocean-and-coastal-mapping-and-request-for-partnership">https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/07/27/2021-15970/notice-of-matching-fund-opportunity-for-ocean-and-coastal-mapping-and-request-for-partnership</a>).
DATES: Proposals must be received via email by 5 p.m. ET on November
12, 2021, including any accompanying GIS files. If an entity is unable
to apply for this particular opportunity but has an interest in
participating in similar, future opportunities, NOAA requests a
[[Page 59370]]
one-page statement of interest, instead of a proposal, also by November
12, 2021, to help gauge whether to offer the Brennan Matching Fund
program in future years. All other dates in the original FRN remain
unchanged at this time.
ADDRESSES: Proposals must be submitted in PDF format via email to
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#deb7a9b9b1bdb3f0adaabfb8b89eb0b1bfbff0b9b1a8"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="9bf2ecfcf4f8f6b5e8effafdfddbf5f4fafab5fcf4ed">[email protected]</span></a> by the November 12, 2021, deadline. NOAA strongly
encourages interested entities to submit their proposals in advance of
the deadline. Interested applicants may also contact NOAA via email,
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#4e273929212d23603d3a2f28280e20212f2f60292138"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="731a04141c101e5d0007121515331d1c12125d141c05">[email protected]</span></a>, for a rough order of magnitude cost estimation
sheet to use in estimating acquisition costs for the matching program.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information
should be directed to Ashley Chappell, NOAA Integrated Ocean and
Coastal Mapping Coordinator, 240-429-0293, or at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#412836262e222c6f3235202727012f2e20206f262e37"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="84edf3e3ebe7e9aaf7f0e5e2e2c4eaebe5e5aae3ebf2">[email protected]</span></a>.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The goal of the Brennan Matching Fund is to
acquire more ocean and coastal mapping data for mutual benefit,
including for safe navigation, integrated ocean and coastal mapping,
coastal zone management, coastal and ocean science, climate
preparedness, infrastructure investments, and other activities. The
program relies on NOAA's mapping, charting, and geodesy expertise,
appropriated funds, and its authority to receive and expend matching
funds contributed by partners to conduct surveying and mapping
activities. This program is subject to funding availability.
Authority: The Coast and Geodetic Survey Act of 1947, 33 U.S.C.
883e.
