Requirements include, but are not limited to:

• Implementing a field validation project to address a HAB associated with a water resources development project 
• Gathering and evaluating technology cost and performance data that will guide technology use and technology transfer
• Providing data that could be applied to multiple water resources development projects or federally constructed reservoirs

This project supports ERDC’s Environmental Laboratory.

Submission deadline is May 10, 2024.

Note: Applicants must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database.
