Subject: [CPEO-MEF] FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT



ARLINGTON, VA, November 13, 2007 - The Department of Defense (DoD),
through the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program
(SERDP), is seeking to fund environmental research and development
efforts to identify, develop, and transition the underlying science and
environmental technologies that support the long-term sustainability of
DoD's training and testing ranges as well as significantly reduce
current and future environmental liabilities.  Proposals responding to
focused Statements of Need (SON) 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 (e.g.,
       ecosystem-based management; threatened, endangered, and at-risk
       species; land management and watershed protection; and maritime
       sustainability), facilities (e.g., installation/regional
       sustainability, energy, noise, air and water quality, and facility
       waste), and 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.



Proposals responding to the FY2009 SONs will be selected through a
competitive process.  The Core Solicitation provides funding in varying
amounts for multi-year projects. For the Core Solicitation,
PRE-PROPOSALS FROM THE NON-FEDERAL SECTOR ARE DUE BY TUESDAY, JANUARY 8,
2008.  PROPOSALS FROM THE FEDERAL SECTOR ARE DUE BY THURSDAY, MARCH 6,
2008. The SONs and detailed instructions for federal and private sector
proposers are available on the SERDP web site: www.serdp.org/funding
<http://www.serdp.org/funding>.



SERDP also will 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.  For FY2009, proposals are being requested that
respond to one SEED SON in Munitions Management.



All SEED proposals are due by Thursday, March 6, 2008.  The SEED SON and
detailed instructions for both federal and non-federal proposers are
available on the SERDP web site at www.serdp.org/funding
<http://www.serdp.org/funding>.



NEW THIS YEAR!  Through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
Technology Innovation Program, SERDP Executive Director Mr. Bradley
Smith will conduct an online seminar SERDP Funding Opportunities on
December 14, 2007, 1:00-2:30 PM EST. This "how to play" briefing will
offer essential information for those who are interested in new funding
opportunities within SERDP.  During the online seminar, participants may
ask general questions about the funding process, submitting proposals,
and the current FY2009 SERDP solicitation. To learn more about this
online seminar or to register, visit
