Agency Name : National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
Description : State Electronic Crash Data Collection Program Grant
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s National Center for Statistics and Analysis intends to award discretionary grants for the modernization of States’ crash data collection systems. These grants are for States to establish or upgrade and standardize their crash data systems to enable electronic data collection, intra-State sharing, and electronic transfer of their crash data to NHTSA in a standardized format using the Information Exchange Package Documentation (IEPD) data transfer protocol.
NHTSA has a history of working with States to make crash data available to the public to support highway safety. These grants will increase the number of States providing timely, standardized electronic crash data to NHTSA to support NHTSA data systems, including the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), the Crash Reporting Sampling System (CRSS), and the Crash Investigation Sampling System (CISS). The crash data received will enable NHTSA to analyze motor vehicle crash data, identify developing trends, and develop strategies and interventions to prevent and mitigate crash injury severity. NHTSA will make this State crash data accessible to the public.
Grant recipients will be required to contribute at least twenty (20) percent of State funds for eligible activity costs. States can use the funds for equipment to upgrade a centralized statewide crash data repository; adopt electronic crash reporting by law enforcement agencies; and increase alignment of State crash data with the forthcoming Model Minimum Uniform Crash Criteria (MMUCC) Sixth Edition. Recipients will also certify that they will electronically transfer crash data to NHTSA beginning no later than five years from the effective date of award.
This Notice is being published to allow potential applicants enough time to develop a plan to implement full electronic data transfer to NHTSA by no later than five years after the grant is awarded. The plan should describe the project, tasks, and steps that will enable electronic transfer of State crash data to NHTSA. This notification of funding opportunity (NOFO) is currently under development. We encourage prospective applicants to use the Grants.gov subscription option to register for future updates provided for this opportunity.

States are encouraged to review the guidance, tools, and technical assistance provided by NHTSA for modernizing their crash data collection systems. The Guide to Updating State Crash Data Systems (DOT HS 813 217) was published to provide guidance and promote noteworthy practices to States. The Traffic Records Program Assessment Advisory, 2018 Edition (DOT HS 821 601) provides a description of the ideal crash system.
This is a forecasted opportunity. Watch Grants.gov for the official notice; applications open once it is posted. You'll need SAM.gov (UEI) and Grants.gov registrations.
The National Library of Medicine (NLM) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for Regional Medical Libraries of the Network of the National Library of Medicine (NNLM).
Established in 1965 and organized geographically across the United States and its territories, the NNLM promotes and supports the initiatives, products, and services of the NLM and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Over the years, the network has expanded its impact through strategic partnerships with a broad array of member organizations, including health sciences, hospital, academic, and public libraries; health professionals; data organizations; and community-based groups.
The NNLM’s core mission is to enable the effective use of - and contribution to - health information and data made available by the NLM and NIH. The network achieves this by providing professional development for librarians and information specialists, and by supporting access to health information and outreach through libraries and community organizations. A central emphasis of the NNLM is increasing awareness of and engagement with NIH programs and resources.
While the NNLM has traditionally focused on promoting NLM-specific products, it is now poised to expand its reach across the broader NIH community. The network will play a vital role in disseminating research findings, fostering community engagement and partnerships, and supporting participation in local clinical research. In doing so, the NNLM will enhance public understanding of NIH’s contributions and increase the use of NIH-supported information and data resources.
The NNLM consists of three major components: 1) the Network Coordinating Center (NCC), 2) Regional Medical Libraries (RMLs), and 3) the Network Training Center (NTC). This announcement specifically pertains to RMLs, with companion NOFOs forthcoming for the NCC and NTC.
The RMLs will be responsible for generating and maintaining an active, engaged membership of organizations focused on biomedical health information and data dissemination, training, and literacy. The RMLs will work with the NCC and NTC to promote the activities, products, and services of the NLM as well as the NIH. The RMLs will work with the NCC to evaluate progress, performance, and impact of the Network, including the use of common metrics (standardized measures collected and reported), as well as proposed site-specific goals. The RMLs will collaborate with the NTC to identify training needs and execute professional development or information access programming.
The RMLs should have strong competencies in building and managing long-term partnerships with groups and organizations, deep understanding of biomedical information and data sciences, and institutional connections with a health science library.
Grant authority that allows NLM to forecast this opportunity is as follows: Medical Library Assistance Act of 1965 (MLAA, P.L. 89-291).

The purpose of the California Forest Improvement Program (CFIP) is to encourage private and public investment in, and improved management of, California forest lands and resources, to ensure adequate high quality timber supplies, related employment and other economic benefits, and the protection, maintenance, and enhancement of a productive and stable forest resource system for the benefit of present and future generations.
The program scope includes the improvement of all forest resources including fish and wildlife habitat, and soil and water quality. Cost-share assistance is provided to private and public ownerships containing 20 to 5,000 acres of forest land. Cost-shared activities include: Preparation of a Forest Management Plan by a Registered Professional Forester (RPF) and RPF Supervision of the following: Reforestation, Site Preparation, Trees and Planting, Tree Shelters, Stand Improvement, Pre-commercial Thinning or Release, Pruning, Follow-up (includes mechanical, herbicide and/or slash disposal follow-up), Forestland conservation practices / fish and wildlife habitat improvement Broadcast/controlled/cultural burning is not eligible for CFIP cost share.

Fund rice conversion projects on areas with highly organic soils in the Delta.
The goal of the Rice Incentive Program is to fund rice conversion projects on areas with highly organic soils in the Delta to 1) stop or reverse ongoing subsidence, 2) reduce greenhouse gas emissions, 3) maintain agricultural viability of land below sea level, and 4) provide overwintering habitat for resident and migratory birds. Rice projects should occur only on soils with a high percentage of carbon within the deeply subsided portion of the Delta. The Program is intended to support farmers, including historically underserved farmers, who otherwise cannot convert their fields to rice due to inability to pay or finance high upfront conversion costs. The Program will provide funding to two or three eligible entities that will work with farmers to convert their existing row crops to rice. Eligible entities include Federal, State and local public agencies including special districts and joint powers authorities and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status. The selected eligible 2 entities must also provide technical assistance on rice farming, field conversion, and other related practices to enrolled farmers during the program.
This purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is for FDA Office of Minority Health and Health Equity's (OMHHE) Health Equity Innovation Award: Racial & Ethnic Minority Acceleration Consortium for Health Equity (REACH). The consortium will consist of multiple cooperative agreement (U01) recipients that will strengthen and advance minority health and health equity focused research, outreach, and communications as well as support training and mentoring of diverse students, fellows, and/or researchers.
