Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 20 FA 0125
This Notice of Intent (Funding Opportunity Number USGS 20 FA 0125) is a discretionary funding opportunity from the Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) focused on natural resources. The opportunity is titled "Facilitating Accurate and Effective Application of Marsh Modeling Outputs" and is intended to support work that helps improve how marsh modeling results are interpreted, communicated, and applied in practice. In plain terms, the award is meant to strengthen the accuracy and usability of marsh model outputs so that decision-makers, scientists, and resource managers can use those outputs more effectively for planning and management related to marsh environments.
The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the USGS expects substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds. In cooperative agreements, the agency often collaborates with the recipient on project direction, technical input, data coordination, deliverables, and/or review processes. This structure is commonly used when the agency wants the project to align closely with USGS scientific priorities and to ensure consistent methods, interpretation standards, or integration with existing USGS tools and datasets.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, meaning that public universities and similar state-run higher education entities are the intended applicants. The program is listed under CFDA number 15.820, which corresponds to USGS research and cooperative activities and is often associated with applied science efforts that produce practical outputs for natural resource issues.
The opportunity was created on April 30, 2020, with an original closing date of May 14, 2020, indicating a short application window. The award ceiling is $100,000, and the USGS anticipated making one award. That combination (one expected award and a defined ceiling) suggests a targeted, single-project effort rather than a broad multi-award program, likely aimed at meeting a specific USGS need related to marsh modeling outputs and their real-world application.
Overall, the opportunity offers up to $100,000 through a cooperative agreement to a single eligible public institution of higher education to carry out work that helps ensure marsh modeling outputs are accurate, clearly understood, and effectively used in natural resource decision-making, with close coordination expected between the recipient and the USGS.Apply for USGS 20 FA 0125
