FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

 

ARLINGTON, VA, November 10, 2005—The Department of Defense, through the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP), will be funding environmental research and development.  The objective of this effort it to identify, develop, and transition environmental technologies that relate directly to defense mission accomplishment.  Proposals in the following areas are requested:

 

§         Environmental Restoration — innovative technologies for the detection, characterization, containment, and remediation of a wide range of contaminants in soil, sediments, and water.

§         Munitions Management — advanced geophysical sensor and signal processing technologies for the detection, discrimination, and remediation of Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) and technologies for range clearance and reduced generation of UXO.

§         Sustainable Infrastructure — natural resources management (e.g., ecosystem management, threatened and endangered species, invasive species), facilities management (e.g., solid waste, noise, water/air quality), and detection and evaluation of cultural resources.

§         Weapons Systems and Platforms — advanced alternative environmentally benign technologies and materials that reduce, control, or eliminate the waste and emissions associated with the manufacturing, maintenance, and use of DoD weapons systems and platforms.

 

SERDP intends to fund multiple projects within each core thrust area.  Projects will be selected through a competitive selection process.  PRE-PROPOSALS FROM THE NON-FEDERAL SECTOR ARE DUE BY THURSDAY, JANUARY 05 2006.  PROPOSALS FROM THE FEDERAL SECTOR ARE DUE BY THURSDAY, MARCH 16 2006.  Detailed instructions for federal and private sector proposers are available on the SERDP website: http://www.serdp.org/funding/index.cfm.

 

SERDP will also be funding environmental research and development through the SERDP Exploratory Development (SEED) program.  The SEED program is designed to provide initial funding for high-risk, high payoff projects in all four core thrust areas.  For FY07, SEED is focusing on Munitions Management and Sustainable Infrastructure.

 

All SEED proposals are due by THURSDAY, MARCH 16 2006Detailed instructions for both federal and non-federal proposers are available on the SERDP website at http://www.serdp.org/funding/index.cfm.
