Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 18 FA 0091
The Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Notice of Intent" under Funding Opportunity Number USGS 18 FA 0091. The opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during the period of performance, such as collaboration on technical approaches, coordination, or participation in project activities, rather than simply providing funds with minimal agency engagement. The program is categorized under the Natural Resources funding activity area and is associated with CFDA number 15.808, indicating it falls within USGS-related assistance for natural resource work.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, specifically excluding institutions of higher education. In practice, that means a qualifying charitable nonprofit may apply, but colleges and universities are not eligible under this announcement. The posting indicates the USGS anticipated making a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an award ceiling of $9,226. This ceiling represents the maximum amount the USGS planned to provide under the award, suggesting a relatively small, targeted project or a narrow scope of work rather than a large multi-year program.
The announcement was created on April 4, 2018, with an original closing date of April 18, 2018, leaving a short application window of roughly two weeks. That compressed timeline is often seen in situations where the agency is signaling an intent to fund a specific type of activity, a continuation effort, or a narrowly defined collaboration that can be proposed quickly by eligible partners. The title and description both being simply "Notice of Intent" and the absence of additional narrative details in the provided source data suggest that this posting functioned primarily as a formal notification rather than a fully detailed program description, and that additional context (such as specific project objectives, required deliverables, or geographic focus) may have been provided in the full announcement text or in subsequent related postings.
In summary, this was a USGS discretionary cooperative agreement opportunity in the natural resources area (CFDA 15.808), open only to eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding higher education institutions), with one anticipated award up to $9,226, posted April 4, 2018 and closing April 18, 2018.Apply for USGS 18 FA 0091
