Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 17 FA 0243
The grant opportunity titled G17AC00243 (Funding Opportunity Number: USGS 17 FA 0243) is a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) funding notice issued by the Department of the Interior, Geological Survey. It falls under the discretionary funding category and uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means the USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal participation. The programmatic focus is listed under the Environment activity category, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.808, which is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier used to track federal assistance programs.
This posting is explicitly described as a "Notice of Intent to Award Noncompetitive Action." In practical terms, that language signals that the agency is announcing its intent to make an award without a competitive application process, usually because a specific recipient has been identified in advance based on statutory direction, unique qualifications, continuation of ongoing work, urgent timing, or another allowable justification under federal assistance rules. As a result, while the opportunity is posted publicly for transparency, it is not structured like an open solicitation where multiple applicants submit competing proposals for review.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, meaning only state-level governmental entities would be eligible recipients under this notice. The opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1), reinforcing that it is aimed at one intended recipient rather than a broad pool of applicants. The maximum funding amount (Award Ceiling) is listed as $148,000, indicating the award is not expected to exceed that level. The notice was created on June 22, 2017, and the original closing date is July 6, 2017, providing a short administrative window typical of noncompetitive intent notices where the agency is completing required public posting steps rather than conducting a full competitive cycle.
Overall, G17AC00243 is best understood as a USGS environmental cooperative agreement for a state government partner, with up to $148,000 in support, intended to result in one noncompetitive award, and published primarily to document and disclose the agency's intent to proceed with that noncompetitive funding action.Apply for USGS 17 FA 0243
