In 2003, the NSEDC Board of Directors started supporting regional efforts to fund programs, projects and activities benefiting the member communities and has annually set aside money to contribute to these regional efforts. 

To be eligible to receive grant funding from NSEDC, an entity must be a municipal government, federally recognized tribal government, non-profit organization, or a local, state, or federal agency located in an NSEDC member community. 

A total of 90% of the funds allocated annually to the Outside Entity Funding (OEF) program will be divided equally between each NSEDC member community for projects conducted within that community. The remaining 10% of the funding pool will be reserved for project proposals from regional non-profit entities. Fisheries related projects considered through NSEDC's internal budget process will not utilize funds from the Outside Entity allocation, however there is nothing that would prohibit fisheries related projects from being considered for funding through the Community OEF process.

2011 Outside Enity Funding applications for Fisheries & Non-Fisheries Related Project Proposals are due October 15, 2010.
