GULF COAST ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION COUNCIL

[Docket No.: 107162018-1111-03]


Notice of Proposed Subaward Under a Council-Selected Restoration 
Component Award

AGENCY: Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (RESTORE Council) 
publishes notice of proposed subawards from the Mississippi Department 
of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) to the Mississippi Wildlife Federation 
and the Partnership for Gulf Coast Land Conservation, two Mississippi 
nonprofit organizations, for the purpose of education and outreach in 
accordance with the Sea Grant Education and Outreach (EOE) Award, as 
approved in the Initial Funded Priority List.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Please send questions by email to 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 1321(t)(2)(E)(ii)(III) of the 
RESTORE Act (33 U.S.C. 1321(t)(2)(E)(ii)(III)) and Treasury's 
implementing regulation at 31 CFR 34.401(b) require that, for purposes 
of awards made under the Council-Selected Restoration Component, a 
State or Federal award recipient may make a grant or subaward to or 
enter into a cooperative agreement with a nongovernmental entity that 
equals or exceeds 10 percent of the total amount of the award provided 
to the State or Federal award recipient only if certain notice 
requirements are met. Specifically, at least 30 days before the State 
or Federal award recipient enters into such an agreement, the Council 
must publish in the Federal Register and deliver to specified 
Congressional Committees the name of the recipient and subrecipient; a 
brief description of the activity, including its purpose; and the 
amount of the award. This notice accomplishes the Federal Register 
requirement.

Description of Proposed Action

    As specified in the Initial Funded Priority List, which is 
available on the Council's website at https://www.restorethegulf.gov/council-selected-restoration-component/funded-priorities-list, RESTORE 
Act funds in the amount of $750,000 will support the Sea Grant 
Education and Outreach (EOE) Award to MDEQ. As part of this project, 
MDEQ will provide a subaward in the amount of $84,150 to the 
Mississippi Wildlife Federation for enhancement of the Mississippi 
Habitat Stewards Program. Through the subaward, the Mississippi 
Wildlife Federation will expand an existing curriculum that relays the 
ecosystem benefits of upstream land conservation, habitat restoration 
and water quality restoration. The expanded curriculum will be offered 
for three different targeted audiences at different levels: Habitat 
steward volunteers; youth, ages 9-12; and local high school 
environmental clubs.
    MDEQ will also provide a subaward in the amount of $99,050 to the 
Partnership for Gulf Coast Land Conservation (PGCLC). The PGCLC will 
conduct an outreach initiative that includes three components: The 
development of science-based communication products for use with a 
general audience that summarize and explain the benefits of land 
conservation in the Gulf coast region in lay terminology; field visits 
that bring together stakeholders to illustrate, in the field and by 
boat, the connectivity that land conservation practices along our 
coastal streams have to water quality in the northern Gulf of Mexico 
and to our marine and estuarine living resources; and the development 
of a short digital film that illustrates the connection between 
riparian and wetland forests and marine and estuarine living resources 
in the northern Gulf of Mexico.

Director of External Affairs & Tribal Relations, Gulf Coast Ecosystem 
Restoration Council.
