In 2017, NOAA Fisheries will award up to $100 million to restoration partners to implement projects addressing habitats and coastlines damaged by oil and chemical spills. The funds used for these awards come from settlements with responsible parties.<\/p>\n
NOAA's Damage Assessment, Remediation and Restoration Program helps to recover natural resources after disasters like oil spills — bring it back to its condition before the spill. Since 1991, we have recovered more than $10 billion from those responsible for environmental harm to implement restoration across the country.<\/p>\n
Habitat grants are a great opportunity for the agency to leverage partnerships to help us implement restoration in an efficient and cost-effective manner.<\/p>\n
