Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 20 FA 0066
This opportunity is a public notice from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) announcing its intent to make a cooperative agreement award for a project titled "Developing a National Perspective for DOI Climate Change Refugia Conservation." The key point is that it is not an open grant competition and not a request for applications. Instead, USGS is using the announcement to inform the public that it plans to fund specific project activities through a non-competitive award process.
The project focus is on climate change refugia conservation within the Department of the Interior (DOI) context. In practical terms, climate change refugia are places on the landscape (or in aquatic systems) that are expected to be relatively buffered from climate impacts and therefore may help sustain species, habitats, or ecological functions as surrounding areas become less suitable. The intent implied by the title is to support work that pulls together a nationwide, DOI-wide perspective on how refugia are identified, prioritized, and incorporated into conservation planning and management.
The announcement is identified by Funding Opportunity Number USGS 20 FA 0066 and is categorized as "Other" rather than a standard discretionary grant solicitation. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally signals that USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, collaborating on scope, methods, deliverables, or coordination across partners). The activity category is Natural Resources, and the listed CFDA number is 15.820. The agency is the Geological Survey (USGS).
Basic funding and timing details included in the notice indicate an award ceiling of $278,033, with the expected number of awards not clearly specified in the provided text. The record shows a creation date of March 25, 2020, and an original closing date of April 7, 2020. In the context of a notice of intent rather than a solicitation, the "closing date" functions more like an administrative posting window on the grants portal than a deadline for applicants, since applications are not being requested.
Eligibility is labeled broadly as "Others," but because this is a non-competitive intent-to-award notice, that field does not function as an invitation for new applicants to apply. Anyone seeking more detail is directed to the "Related Documents" section referenced in the posting, which would typically contain the formal justification, scope, or documentation describing the planned award and project activities.Apply for USGS 20 FA 0066
