B-WET program supports watershed education projects for K-12 teachers and students around the country.

B-WET currently serves seven areas of the country: California, Chesapeake, Great Lakes, Gulf of America, Hawaiʻi, New England, and the Pacific Northwest. NOAA has supported 1028 B-WET awards between 2002‑2025. Grantees were selected through a rigorous peer review process administered by a NOAA program office in their region. All B‑WET applicants are encouraged to partner with local NOAA offices and use local NOAA field sites and data. For a list of our most recent awards, visit our 2024 and 2025 B‑WET awards web page. To learn more about past B‑WET projects, please see the regional program websites or contact your regional program manager for more information.
