Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 17 FA 0191
The funding opportunity titled G17AC00191 (Funding Opportunity Number: USGS 17 FA 0191) is a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) notice indicating the Department of the Interior, Geological Survey intends to make a noncompetitive assistance award. In practical terms, this type of announcement is typically used when the agency already has a specific project partner in mind or has statutory, programmatic, or mission-based reasons to proceed with a single recipient rather than run a full open competition. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and will be issued as a Cooperative Agreement, which usually means the USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the project after award, such as collaborating on technical approaches, participating in planning, or coordinating data and deliverables, rather than simply providing funds with minimal engagement.
This opportunity falls under the Environment funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.808, which corresponds to USGS-related assistance programs. The eligible applicant pool is limited to nonprofits that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, specifically excluding institutions of higher education. That restriction signals the intended recipient is expected to be a qualifying nonprofit organization outside the university system. The announcement was created on June 5, 2017, and had an original closing date of June 19, 2017, reflecting a short posting window that is consistent with a notice-of-intent or sole-source-style action where the agency is not seeking broad proposals from many applicants.
The anticipated award structure is straightforward: USGS expected to make a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $120,000. No additional programmatic details about project goals, tasks, or deliverables are provided in the text you shared beyond the statement that it is a notice of intent to award a noncompetitive assistance award. The key takeaways are that this is an environmental cooperative agreement administered by USGS, limited to eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding higher education), with one anticipated award up to $120,000, and it was posted primarily to document and publicize the agency’s intent to proceed without a competitive solicitation.Apply for USGS 17 FA 0191
