Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 19 FA 0098
This Notice of Intent describes a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), focused on natural resources work under a cooperative agreement. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number USGS 19 FA 0098 and is titled "Notice of Intent," with the description indicating it supports a specific effort: "Cooperative Agreement Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Collaborative Work Space." In practical terms, the announcement signals USGS intent to make an award through a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally means the funded project is expected to involve substantial federal involvement during performance (for example, collaboration, technical participation, or shared responsibilities between USGS and the recipient), rather than operating as a more hands-off grant.
The eligible applicant pool is limited to private institutions of higher education, and the description explicitly references Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, indicating this is likely a targeted or partner-specific collaboration rather than an open competition among many universities. The listing anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1), reinforcing the impression that the scope and recipient are narrowly defined. The total maximum federal funding available is listed as an award ceiling of $584,100, which functions as the upper limit for the award amount under this opportunity.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was created on August 16, 2019, with an original closing date of August 30, 2019. That is a relatively short window, which is common for announcements that are either intended for a specific recipient, are time-sensitive, or are part of a pre-coordinated collaboration where the applicant is already positioned to submit quickly. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.808, which corresponds to USGS activities in the natural resources area.
Overall, the opportunity can be understood as USGS planning to fund (through a cooperative agreement) the establishment, support, or operation of a collaborative workspace effort connected to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, with up to $584,100 available for one award, and eligibility constrained to private higher education institutions.Apply for USGS 19 FA 0098
