Opportunity Information: Apply for G18AS00016
The 2018 Water Use Data and Research Program (Funding Opportunity Number G18AS00016) is a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The program is focused on supporting work that strengthens water-use information and related research, aligning with broader national interests in environmental management, natural resources, and applied science and technology. The assistance is provided through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the USGS expects to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, coordination on technical approaches, data standards, methods, or deliverables), rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal interaction.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to state governments, indicating that the program is designed to build or improve state-level capacity and coordination for water-use data collection, analysis, and reporting. While the brief listing does not describe specific project types, the title and program framing indicate an emphasis on practical, decision-relevant water-use datasets and research activities that can improve how water withdrawals, deliveries, consumptive use, and related metrics are tracked and understood. This kind of program generally supports efforts that help produce consistent, comparable water-use information that can be used for statewide planning and also integrated into national-scale water assessments.
The opportunity is categorized under Environment, Natural Resources, and Science and Technology (research and development), and it is associated with CFDA number 15.981. The listing shows the opportunity was created on March 21, 2018, with an original application closing date of May 3, 2018, giving applicants a relatively short window to prepare and submit proposals. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $125,000 per award, and the USGS anticipated making about 25 awards, suggesting a program structure intended to fund multiple states or state-led initiatives rather than concentrating funding into a small number of large projects.
In practical terms, this opportunity can be read as targeted support for states to improve the quality, timeliness, and usefulness of water-use data and to pursue research that addresses gaps in water-use measurement or estimation methods. Because it is administered by the USGS, a likely underlying goal is to enhance the consistency and availability of water-use information that supports both state-level management and USGS national water-use compilations and analyses.Apply for G18AS00016
