The overarching goals of this study are 1) to update oil spill rates of OCS platforms, OCS pipelines, and U.S. barges, 2) to obtain oil spill information for BOEMs Offshore Environmental Cost Model (OECM), 3) to analyze oil spill trend and casual factors. Having updated oil spill and oil spill occurrence rate data is critically important to analyze the potential risk and consequence of OCS oil spills, investigate causal factors contributing to the occurrence, size or frequency of oil spills, enhance oil-spill response planning, and target future regulatory reform to better manage risk.Specific objectives are:Compilation of oil spill data and QA/QC of the dataExamination of historical spill occurrences and of volume of oil handledAnalysis of other potential exposure variablesEstimate spill occurrence rates and normalize these rates based on number of spills per volume handled and other potential exposure variablesAnalyses on oil spill trend and casual factorsProvide information for OECM modelPrepare a 508 compliant report according to BOEMs specifications.

The United States Department of Agricultures (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) Veterinary Services (VS) is announcing the availability of cooperative agreement funding to carry out the Antimicrobial Resistance Dashboard (AMR Dashboard) as described in the U.S. House of Representatives Report for the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill, 2021. Through public-private partnerships, USDA APHIS will develop and utilize antimicrobial resistance dashboard tools to improve access to information on antimicrobial resistance in domesticated animals, including livestock, poultry, and companion animals. All antimicrobial resistance dashboard tools developed will provide data protections similar to the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act. Once created, the antimicrobial resistance dashboard tools will be used to monitor trends in antimicrobial resistance patterns, detect emerging resistance profiles, and better understand relationships between antimicrobial use and animal health management practices and antimicrobial resistance. Additional details about the program and this funding opportunity, including additional information for applicants, are available at USDA APHIS One Health Funding Opportunities.

The FY 2024 Rural Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Training Program, funded by SAMHSA, aims to support rural EMS agencies in training EMS personnel, particularly to address substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. Grants of up to $200,000 annually, for a project period of two years, are available to rural EMS agencies operated by local or tribal governments or as non-profit entities. Applications for the FY 2024 cycle are due by March 20, 2024, and for FY 2025 by March 20, 2025. This NOFO allows agencies that applied in a previous fiscal year but did not receive funding to reapply in subsequent years. The program’s key activities include training EMS personnel on identifying and managing substance use and mental health disorders, using trauma-informed and recovery-based approaches, and maintaining relevant certifications. Required activities encompass training on overdose reversal using naloxone, motivational interviewing, working with peer support specialists, and reporting overdose incidents to public health departments. Additionally, grantees can acquire necessary medical and emergency equipment with SAMHSA's prior approval. Optional activities include recruiting and training volunteer EMS personnel, acquiring personal protective equipment (PPE), and training on opioid overdose treatment using medications like buprenorphine. Eligibility for this funding is limited to rural EMS agencies as defined by either nonmetropolitan statistical areas or state designations of rural areas. Each application must include a project narrative of no more than ten pages, budget details, and a certification that the project will serve rural populations. There is a 10% matching funds requirement, and applicants must be registered with eRA Commons, Grants.gov, and SAM.gov before submission. Applications exceeding page or budget limits will not be reviewed. Evaluation criteria include the project's relevance to community needs, feasibility, and organizational capability to deliver training. Additional consideration is given to applications serving underserved communities and advancing DEIA principles. Awardees are required to submit progress reports at six and twelve months, as well as a final project report.

Wastewater Based Epidemiology involves analyzing the chemical and biological components present in wastewater to gather information about the health and behavior of a population. Localities have used it to monitor drug consumption patterns in their communities and understand local drug usage trends. It holds promise for monitoring the emergence and geographic distribution of novel substances often referred to as emerging threats. In FY2023, the United States Government funded pilot WBE drug projects that collected wastewater samples in over 70 United States communities representing tens of millions of Americans. The samples were analyzed for parent drugs, such as fentanyl and methamphetamine, and metabolites. Researchers shared results with participating sampled communities, local and state partners, and to a limited extent, the government sponsors.
