This Funding Opportunity Announcement is soliciting applications that propose projects supporting eagle detection, classification, and impact minimization technologies in three Topic Areas.

Topic Area 1 will intend to support research on eagle ability to sense and respond to stimuli, in an effort to identify signals that will serve as optimal deterrents.

Topic Area 2 will intend to further the technical readiness of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 5-6 detect and deter and informed curtailment systems through technical improvement and testing activities.

Topic area 3 will intend to support the demonstration of a proposed TRL 7+ detection and/or minimization technology at an operational wind facility at a scale sufficient to provide an accurate demonstration of efficacy through a statistically significant reduction of impact at a reasonable cost.
