Request for Qualifications and Cost Proposal – Harmful Algal (HAB) Cohort Program Technical Assistance and Facilitation Services

The Albemarle Commission (ACCOG) has applied for funding through the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Section 205(j) Water Quality Planning Grant program to support development and implementation of a Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) Cohort Program for local governments in the Albemarle region.

This project builds upon the North Carolina Local Government Action Toolkit for Harmful Algal Blooms currently being developed through a partnership led by North Carolina State University and the North Carolina State Resilience Office. The HAB Cohort Program will guide local governments through the process of applying the Toolkit to develop local HAB response plans.

The Albemarle Commission anticipates that organizations with experience in harmful algal bloom research, water quality planning, and facilitation of training programs for local governments will be well positioned to support development and delivery of the HAB Cohort Program.
