"Guys" - This is a program that USEPA runs. We've never applied
directly as a Park, because its not meant for federal agencies,
really...though see Dana's note below. This is open competition. I
sent Dana to Duluth last week to argue (with other NPS folks) for a
share of EPA's new amphibian intiative. She thinks it may hold some
possibility for scientists to apply in association with the ATBI.

Keith,
Below is info on EPA STAR (Science to Achieve Results) program:
www.epa.gov/ncerqa
Go to 'Announcements' for a listing. If you go to 'Communicate', you
can register with the site and they will send you updates on calls for
proposals.
They distribute $110 million annually - usually distributed among
8-900 research grants (~3500 apply). Also have graduate fellowships
and exploratory grants. Fed employees can sometimes apply ... must
watch eligibility statement. When not allowed, Fed employees cannot
be PI, but can cooperate with nonprofit organization, university,
etc... as long as the relationship is not 'substantial' or requiring a
coop agreement be written.
