美国环境保护署（Environmental Protection Agency, EPA）10月20日在波士顿（Boston）宣布，现通过其“新英格兰东南部计划”（Southeast New England Program, SNEP）开放创新修复拨款申请，资金总额约530万美元，预计评选约8个项目，用于支持新英格兰东南部的海岸流域修复工作。
环保署区域管理员 Mark Sanborn 说：“新英格兰东南部的海岸社区对该地区的经济与生活方式至关重要。通过投资创新、具成本效益的修复项目，环保署正在帮助保护清洁水源、加强地方经济，并确保这些重要的海岸资源能为子孙后代所享用。”
环保署称，让所有美国人享有清洁水源是署长 Zeldin “让美国伟大复兴”倡议的第一支柱，本次拨款机会体现了该署在新英格兰东南部持续支持创新的承诺。SNEP创新修复拨款将重点支持创新政策、科学与技术在地区修复工作中的开发与应用。环保署表示，2026年度资金机会通知（NOFO）已发布在 grants.gov 上，申请须在2026年12月11日晚11时59分（美东时间）前提交。
据环保署介绍，新英格兰东南部计划以生态系统为尺度，处理从 Rhode Island 到 Massachusetts 一带的相关问题，并通过与各方利益相关者协作、调动共享资源，应对该地区的沿海生态需求。
EPA Opens $5.3 Million in Grants for Coastal Watershed Restoration in Southeast New England
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced in Boston on October 20 that it is seeking proposals for approximately eight awards totaling $5.3 million in innovative restoration grant funding under its Southeast New England Program (SNEP), to support coastal watershed restoration priorities across southeast New England.
"Southeast New England's coastal communities are vital to the region's economy and way of life," said EPA Regional Administrator Mark Sanborn. "By investing in innovative, cost-effective restoration projects, EPA is helping to protect clean water, strengthen local economies, and ensure these important coastal resources can be enjoyed for generations to come."
The agency said clean water for all Americans is part of the first pillar of Administrator Zeldin's Powering the Great American Comeback initiative, and that the funding opportunity reflects its commitment to supporting continued innovation in southeast New England. EPA said SNEP's Innovative Restoration Grants will emphasize the development and application of innovative policies, science and technology to support restoration efforts in the region. The 2026 Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is available on grants.gov, and proposals must be submitted by December 11, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. ET.
According to the EPA, the Southeast New England Program addresses complex issues at an ecosystem level from Rhode Island to Massachusetts, engaging stakeholders across the region in addressing ecological needs through collaboration and shared resources.
