Opportunity Information: Apply for G19AS00003
The USGS Non-Competitive Assistance FY 2019 - Sacramento Acquisition Branch opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number G19AS00003) is a discretionary funding program run by the Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey, designed to support research that complements USGS mission and program priorities. The central focus is on work that helps advance the classification of public lands and the examination and understanding of the nations natural systems and resources, specifically the geological structure of the United States and its public lands, as well as water resources, mineral resources, biological resources, and related products derived from or associated with the national domain. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at research and related activities that align with USGS science and data needs in areas such as earth science, hydrology, ecosystems and biology, natural resource assessment, and other science and technology efforts tied to public land stewardship and national resource understanding.
Funding under this opportunity can be provided through either grants or cooperative agreements, meaning awards may range from standard financial assistance to arrangements where USGS expects substantial involvement in the project during performance, which is typical of cooperative agreements. The funding activity categories listed include Environment, Natural Resources, and Science and Technology/other Research and Development, and the associated CFDA number is 15.808. The stated maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $5,000,000, although the posting does not promise that awards will be made and, in fact, lists an expected number of awards as 0, which is consistent with the non-competitive, as-needed nature of the mechanism and the way USGS may use it for specific situations rather than as a standard, competitive call.
A key feature of this opportunity is that it is not a typical open solicitation with a set of projects to apply for. The notice explicitly states that there is no annual program announcement, prospectus, or other invitation for applications. Instead, the pathway referenced is submission of unsolicited proposals, guided by the USGS Guide for Submission of Unsolicited Proposals (linked in the notice). This means applicants generally bring forward their own research concept that they believe directly supports or complements ongoing USGS efforts, rather than responding to a defined request for proposals. The opportunity is listed as having unrestricted eligibility, meaning it is open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that might be provided in the full text. The posting was created on September 5, 2018, and the original closing date is September 30, 2019, reflecting the period during which this non-competitive assistance listing was active as a funding mechanism.Apply for G19AS00003
