This notice announces the intention of the Maritime Administration to provide grants to small shipyards.

Potential applicants are advised that it is expected, based on experience, that the number of applications will far exceed the funds available and that only a small percentage of applicants will be funded. Applications (SF-424 and the Addendum) will be accepted online through Grants.gov by 5 pm on the closing date (May 8, 2024).
