Opportunity Information: Apply for F18AS00160

The Sportfishing and Boating Safety Act aims to improve recreational boating infrastructure in the U.S. It was established by the Sportfishing and Boating Safety Act of 1998, which created the Boating Infrastructure Grants (BIG) Program. This program supports the 50 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the U.S. Virgin Islands in constructing, renovating, and maintaining facilities for transient recreational vessels that are at least 26 feet long and primarily used for pleasure.

The BIG Program was established as an amendment to the Dingell-Johnson Sport Fish Restoration Act and has undergone several reauthorizations to allow continued funding from the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund. Infrastructure eligible for funding includes necessary structures, equipment, and services to support these vessels, which can stay at a facility for up to 15 days. Projects funded must ensure public access and can be owned by either public or private entities.

This document specifically serves as the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for Fiscal Year 2019 BIG Tier 1 State grants, with a separate announcement for FY 2019 BIG Tier 2 National grants available on Grants.gov.
