| US National | Improved Harmful Algal Blooms Prediction with Hybrid Models | US Department of Defense | Sep 16, 2024 | Jul 19, 2024 | Methods to quantify and predict vulnerability to harmful algal blooms (HABs) has not been developed for most lakes and reservoirs in the U.S. (and the world). This limits the ability for water quality stakeholders to 1) avoid costly emergency events, 2) efficiently design source water monitoring, 3) evaluate the impact of interventions, and 4) maintain trust with the public. Current approaches for detection and prediction of harmful algal blooms rely on infrequent satellite imagery and/or water samples, and provide predictions only at specific sites (i.e., where samples are taken). Furthermore, the models used to make predictions do not typically provide an ability to diagnose the specific drivers of HABs, beyond weather variables. The challenges confronting water quality stakeholders like the USACE are to 1) improve the spatial and temporal resolution of HAB predictions; 2) have the ability to diagnose the causes of HABs in managed reservoirs. | https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/355494 |
| US National | Prediction and Early Identification of Harmful Algal Bloom (HABs) in Riverine Systems | US Department of Defense | Sep 16, 2024 | Jul 19, 2024 | Cost-effective and scalable technologies for early HAB detection, prediction, and management are needed to reduce HAB frequency and severity. Riverine HABs, in particular, can span hundreds of miles, last for weeks, and cause significant damages. Prediction and early identification of riverine HABs is critical to enable effective response and management actions. This project will establish an interdisciplinary collaboration between USACE and recipient(s) to accomplish numbered objectives below. Successful proposals will also (a) clearly identify question(s) the proposed project will seek to answer (i.e., project technical objectives); (b) clearly describe the tasks and data required to answer those question(s) (i.e., data quality objectives); and (c) describe envisioned project deliverables by task and by year. Proposals that demonstrate intent to maximize use of existing federal and state HAB programs, activities, and data are encouraged. Successful proposals will identify quantitative and qualitative success criteria for each project task. | https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/355497 |

| Wisconsin | Wisconsin Headwaters to Coast Initiative | US Fish and Wildlife Service | Sep 30, 2024 | Jul 03, 2024 | The Headwaters to Coast Initiative (H2C) is a Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) funded project to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), initiated in 2022 to develop a partner-driven, watershed-wide conservation blueprint for the Lake Superior basin of Wisconsin that covers the four counties of Ashland, Bayfield, Douglas and Iron in northern Wisconsin. H2C is a community-based program that provides technical and financial assistance primarily through cooperative agreements to conservation partners and stakeholders. The mission of the H2C is to bring people together to prioritize and coordinate conservation projects that meet the ecological, social, and cultural needs of current and future generations in Wisconsin’s Lake Superior Basin. The H2C Initiative was designed to address barriers to collaboration across agencies, organizations, and projects to more strategically address the ongoing challenges posed by climate change, habitat fragmentation, and biodiversity loss. H2C provides a framework for collaboration that places conservation challenges, opportunities, and individual projects into a broader conservation context, may provide technical support to small agencies, and enable a partnership to take on larger projects and issues that may be too challenging for one agency working alone. Funding for projects will be considered that are developed or endorsed by multi-partner, collaborative teams which may include the Lake Superior Collaborative. | https://www.grants.gov/search-results-detail/355238 |

| Washington | Water Banking Grants | Washington Department of Ecology | Jun 30, 2025 | Mar 26, 2024 | We are accepting applications from August 1, 2023, until all funds are awarded, or until the funding opportunity ends on June 30, 2025. Communities in headwater basins are increasingly concerned with the potential impacts of large water right transfers that move water rights far downstream and out of the basin. Once a water right is transferred downstream, it is difficult to later transfer that water right back to the headwater county. This new funding will help eligible applicants develop local water banks and protect streamflow. One-third of all water rights acquired under this program will be set aside strictly for permanent instream use to support streamflows and aquatic resources. | https://ecology.wa.gov/water-shorelines/water-supply/water-rights/water-banks/water-banking-grants?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery |
