The Marine Debris Research and Technology Grants Program
The Marine Debris Research and Technology Grants Program
Request for Proposals
The Marine Debris Research and Technology Grants Program (Program) is a partnership between the NOAA Marine Debris Program and National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to provide grants to organizations working on projects to improve our understanding of the impacts of marine debris on our marine and coastal resources, and to reduce and prevent debris in our marine environment. Marine debris is defined as: any persistent solid material that is manufactured or processed and directly or indirectly, intentionally or unintentionally, disposed of or abandoned into the marine environment or the Great Lakes.
The Program supports projects that reduce the creation of derelict gear (both commercial and recreational) due to poor disposal practices and loss from day-to-day fishing practices, projects that increase our understanding of the impacts of marine debris on species, habitat and navigation, and/or projects that engage marinas, ports and the fishing industry/community.
Programmatic and Geographic Focus Areas
The Program provides competitive grants to finance innovative proposals in three primary focus areas:
1. Ports, Marinas and Fishing Communities - Projects that create or improve best management practices of ports, marinas, and fishing communities to decrease the threat of marine debris to marine life and/or navigation safety. Priority is given to projects that:
1. create incentives for marinas, ports, or fishing communities to reduce the introduction of marine debris;
2. improve marina, port, or fishing organizations best management practices for plastics, fishing gear, and other types of marine debris as defined above;
3. create incentives for fishing and boating communities to reduce or remove marine debris.
2. Gear Technology - Projects that work with the fishing industry and/or fisheries councils and organizations to develop better solutions to reduce derelict fishing gear in the marine environment. Priority is given to projects that:
1. work with fishing groups, industry, or manufacturers to improve fishing gear technology that could decrease gear loss and/or animal entanglement during fishing;
2. develop innovative technology improvements to reduce the effectiveness (catch rate) of lost gear (ghost fishing) or promote the use of gear that reduces ghost fishing.
3. Marine Debris Research and Assessment - Projects that improve understanding of the sources and impacts of marine debris on living marine resources, and tourist and fishing industries. Priority is given to projects that:
1. conduct research to understand reasons for fishing gear loss and develop methods/recommendations to prevent it;
2. quantify the biological, social and/or economic impacts of marine debris, with a priority on derelict fishing gear impacts to living marine resources. Studies of impacts to living marine resources, and cost-benefit analyses of removal by gear type are of particular interest;
3. assess the cost of marine debris impacts on navigation, tourism or other marine-dependent industries.
Proposals must identify which of the above focus area they are addressing, and will be evaluated and selected based on criteria that includes but is not limited to: merit, proposal quality, and available funding.
Eligibility
Eligible applicants are institutions of higher education, other non-profits, commercial organizations, and state (including Commissions), local, and tribal governments whose projects have the potential to benefit NOAA trust resources through marine debris research and prevention projects. Applications from federal agencies or employees of federal agencies will not be considered. Federal agencies are strongly encouraged to work with states, non-governmental organizations, and others that are eligible to apply.
Proposals must link clearly to one of the above focus areas, and clearly define a marine debris problem that applicants are seeking to address and explain how the project will provide measurable benefits for coastal and living marine resources. Projects should define a time-line for project implementation. If applicable, successful applicants will be required to provide sufficient documentation in regards to all necessary permits and clearances that the project expects to receive or has received in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), Endangered Species Act (ESA), and any other federal, state, or local ordinances.
Proposals that include any gear removal aspects as part of their project must also include a letter from the appropriate state agency (on agency letterhead) indicating that your proposed project is in compliance with the state?s policies for handling fishing gear as part of the Full Proposal Application.

Great Example - Interactive marine debris map - WWF Australia
This is a Gr8 exanple of visual marine debris map classifying types and percentage which displayed with colourful map and pie chart.
Love it a lot........thinking to do such thing for Thailand! ....hmmm very interesting!!!
Interactive marine debris map
http://www.wwf.org.au/ourwork/oceans/debrismap/
The information gathered to compile these quantities comes from various sources. These include WWF's annual marine debris surveys in northern Australia, datasheets received from users of The Net Kit: A Fishing Net Identification Guide for Northern Australia and beach survey and clean up work performed by interested parties, school and community groups around Australia.

Measures to Prevent and Reduce Marine Debris and Its Impacts
Tackling Marine Debris in the 21st Century (2008): Measures to Prevent and Reduce Marine Debris and Its Impacts [Read Online]
วันพุธที่ 6 เมษายน พ.ศ. 2554
Tackling Marine Debris in the 21st Century
Tackling Marine Debris in the 21st Century
Authors:
Committee on the Effectiveness of International and National Measures to Prevent and Reduce Marine Debris and Its Impacts, National Research Council
Description:
Marine debris from ships and other ocean-based sources-including trash and lost fishing gear-contributes to the spoiling of beaches, fouling of surface waters and the seafloor, and harm to marine animals, among other effects. Unfortunately, international conventions and domestic laws intended to control marine debris have not been successful, in part because the laws, as written, provide little incentive to change behavior.
This book identifies ways to reduce waste, improve waste disposal at ports, and strengthen the regulatory framework toward a goal of zero waste discharge into the marine environment. Progress will depend on a commitment to sustained funding and appropriate institutional support.
The Interagency Marine Debris Coordinating Committee should, through planning and prioritization, target research to understand the sources, fates, and impacts of marine debris. It should support the establishment of scalable and statistically rigorous protocols that allow monitoring at a variety of temporal and spatial scales. These protocols should contain evaluative metrics that allow assessment of progress in marine debris mitigation. The United States, through leadership in the international arena, should provide technical assistance and support for the establishment of additional monitoring and research programs worldwide.

Contamination of the marine environment from land-based sources
Contamination of the marine environment from land-based sources
Marine Pollution Bulletin, Volume 25, Issues 1-4, 1992, Pages 32-36
H.L. Windom
Seven major categories of contaminants from land have perceived and/or real adverse effects on the coastal marine environment. Heavy metals, although perceived by the public to be a major contaminant of the marine environment, pose little threat on a global scale. Although sewage discharges, litter and oil spills constitute significant threats to the marine environment, their sources, fates and environmental effects are understood well enough to develop management strategies. Problems exist regarding those contaminants where management strategies have not been implemented. In the case of anthropogenically mobilized sediments, synthetic organic compounds, and nutrients, there is insufficient scientific information on the interrelationship between sources, transport, fates and effects to allow for development of management strategies for these contaminants, short of total source control.
Based on trends in world population growth, and global production and use of pesticides and fertilizers, it is concluded that nutrients, synthetic organic compounds and sewage pose the greatest present and future threat to the marine environment.

Hawaii Marine Debris Action Plan (HI-MDAP)
Hawaii Marine Debris Action Plan
(HI-MDAP) http://marinedebris.noaa.gov/projects/pdfs/09himdap.pdf
PROJECT STORY
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Marine Debris Program (MDP) has been a partner in efforts to combat marine debris in Hawaii since 2005.The MDP works in cooperation with partners across the US and internationally to address marine debris. Around the Hawaiian Archipelago, a number of efforts are taking place to address the impacts of marine debris. In order to prioritize Hawaii marine debris issues, the MDP is leading the coordination of the first statewide
action plan to address marine debris in Hawaii.
FOCUS AREAS
Participants identified marine debris actions in five separate focus areas:
• Research & Assessment
• Outreach
• Land-based Debris Prevention
• Beach Cleanup
• Reef (In-water) Debris Removal
LESSONS LEARNED
1) the importance of focusing on impacts to determine priorities; 2) the value of engaging the entire marine debris community early in the planning process; and
3) the asset of having all marine debris partners together to share in the planning process.
NEXT STEPS
The completed Hawaii Marine Debris Action Plan will be rolled out to decision makers and potential funders in November 2009.

Plastic Marine Debris: What We Know
Want to know about Plastic Marine Debris Click
Frequency asked questions you might want to know:
Do plastics degrade in the environment?
What are "microplastics"?
Is it true that our fish are being poisoned by marine debris? (plastics and pollutants)
Is it true that (NOAA has found that) 100,000 marine mammals and/or sea turtles die each year due to marine debris/plastics/plastic bags?
Is plastic a large portion of the debris that enters our oceans? How much?
Have there been studies by NOAA on impacts of plastics to marine mammals and fish?
Are all plastics created equal once they are in the environment? Do some cause more damage than others?
Is there a source/reference to see an actual plot of plastic marine debris occurrence?
