Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS FA 17 0149
This funding notice is a Notice of Intent from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), within the Department of the Interior, announcing plans to make a single discretionary award through a cooperative agreement to support a specific conservation research project at Miami University. The project is titled "Using Landscape-Scale Spatial Models to Identify Habitat for Restoration and Reintroduction of Imperiled Flatwoods Salamanders," and it focuses on applying broad, landscape-level spatial modeling to improve how suitable habitat is identified for restoration work and for potential reintroduction efforts involving flatwoods salamanders, which are considered imperiled. In practical terms, the work implied by the title would center on integrating geospatial data and ecological information to map where conditions are most likely to support the species, helping partners target limited conservation resources more effectively.
Administratively, the opportunity is listed as a discretionary funding action under Funding Opportunity Number USGS FA 17 0149, with a Natural Resources activity category (CFDA 15.808). The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that USGS expects to have substantial involvement during the project period compared with a standard grant, such as collaborating on technical direction, data coordination, deliverables, or shared field and analytical approaches. The notice specifies that the intended recipient is Miami University, and eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, reinforcing that this is not an open competition aimed at a wide applicant pool but rather an announced intent to fund a particular institution for a defined scope of work.
From a funding and timing standpoint, the award ceiling is $28,825, with one expected award. The notice was created on April 26, 2017, and the original closing date was May 10, 2017, reflecting a short window typical of notices that are primarily procedural or designed to meet publication requirements rather than solicit multiple proposals. Overall, the opportunity supports targeted, science-driven habitat identification using landscape-scale spatial models, with the goal of guiding restoration and reintroduction planning for flatwoods salamanders while formalizing a collaborative relationship between USGS and Miami University through a cooperative agreement.Apply for USGS FA 17 0149
