Legislation Details
116th Congress
To reauthorize and amend the National Sea Grant College Program Act, and for other purposes.
Sponsor: Rep. Jared Huffman — D — CA
The National Sea Grant College Program is a partnership between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and 33 university-based programs that focuses on studying, conserving, and effectively using U.S. coastal resources. The bill amends the program and would authorize appropriations totaling $631 million over the 2020-2025 period for NOAA to implement that program. The bill would restrict the use of funds allocated to the program’s policy fellowship, reduce the frequency of reports to the Congress, and streamline the process for federal agencies to hire former recipients of a Dean John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowship.
