This Project Aligns With Usda Sbir/sttr Phase I Program, Research Priority 8.6.C on Reducing Rural Vulnerabilities (excluding Terrorism) Under Research Topic 8.6 on Rural and Community Development. It Supports the Usda 2023-2026 Science and Research Strategy Goals: Accelerating Innovative Technologies & Practices, Driving Solutions, and Cultivating Resilient Ecosystems. the Project Aims to Address the Escalating Challenges Faced by Rural Fishery Communities, Particularly the Vulnerabilities Posed by Degrading Water Quality, Rising Sea Levels, and Increased Storm Surges. Traditional Coastal Protection Methods Often Degrade Vital Ecosystems Such as Wetlands and Mangroves, While Also Requiring Costly and Frequent Repairs. This Proposal Seeks to Develop a Library of 3D-PRINTED Living Seawalls™, Which Mimic Natural Coastal Habitats (e.g., Coral Reefs, Mangroves, Oyster Reefs, and Seagrass Meadows), to Enhance Coastal Defenses While Restoring Marine Ecosystems.objectives INCLUDE:1: Design, Fabricate, and Prototype 3D-PRINTED Habitat Structures for Coral Reefs, Mangroves, Seagrass Meadows, and Oyster REEFS2: Optimize 3D-PRINTED Habitat Structures for Specific Coastal Conditions and Impact Assessmentthe Anticipated Results Include Improved Coastal Resilience, Increased Fishery Sustainability, and Reduced Environmental Impact Through the Use of Eco-friendly Concretes. the Project Offers a Significant Commercial Application by Creating Scalable, Cost- Effective Seawalls That Not Only Protect Rural Communities From Risks But Also Support Local Fisheries and Ecosystems.

Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then .
