A bill to reauthorize the National Sea Grant College Program.

This bill extends funding authorization for the National Sea Grant College Program through fiscal years 2025 to 2031, replacing the previous authorization period of 2021-2025. It directly affects the program’s participating universities and coastal research institutions that receive federal funding for ocean and coastal science, education, and community resilience projects. The key change updates the fiscal year references in the law to ensure continued program operations without altering the program’s scope or funding levels. This is a routine reauthorization to maintain existing program support, not a new policy.
