Details vary by subprogram. Brief summaries provided here. See the programs’ Notices of Funding Opportunity on Grants.gov for program contact and annual application deadlines and procedures. For Invasive Carp and the Rapid Response Fund, see the program contact information below. Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force (ANSTF) subprogram provides support for: ANSTF Regional Panels: This funding helps the six regional ANSTF panels established under the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act (NANPCA) to carry out their responsibilities under NANPCA, including engaging stakeholders, identifying priorities, coordinating activities, and providing advice. State/Interstate Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) Management Plans: This funding authorized in NANPCA supports state or interstate organizations to implement their ANSTF-approved ANS Plans. Only states or interstate organizations with an approved plan are eligible for this annual support. Invasive Carp subprogram: Works cooperatively with partners to assess priority needs across the Mississippi River Sub-basins (Upper Mississippi River, Missouri River, Arkansas-Red-White River, Lower Mississippi River, Tennessee Cumberland River, and Ohio River including in Kentucky Lake, Lake Barkley) and the Great Lakes and determine the most effective allocation of resources to support goals identified in the Management and Control Plan for Bighead, Black, Grass, and Silver Carps in the United States (National Plan). Quagga/Zebra Mussel Action Plan (QZAP) Subrogram: Provides funding for the top priorities in the Quagga/Zebra Mussel Action Plan for Western U.S. Waters (QZAP 2.0) to states within the boundaries of the Western Regional Panel within the United States. Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act; Public Law 117-5) subprogram provides support for: Rapid Response Fund: Response actions for the quick containment or eradication of newly detected aquatic invasive species to avoid need for costly long-term and wide-spread control efforts in the future. Eradication: Provides support for projects that eradicate an invasive species or for research to increase the effectiveness and near-term availability of eradication tools.
