Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 19 FA 0043
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), within the Department of the Interior, issued a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Notice of Intent" under funding opportunity number USGS 19 FA 0043. The focus of the opportunity is "The Future of Culturally Important Species in North America," placing it in the natural resources funding activity category. The listing is associated with CFDA number 15.820, which indicates it falls under a federal assistance program administered through the Department of the Interior.
This opportunity uses a grant as the funding instrument and is specifically limited in eligibility to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. In practical terms, that means state universities, public colleges, and similar publicly governed higher-education entities are the intended applicants, while private universities and other organization types are not identified as eligible under the posted criteria. The posting is framed as a "Notice of Intent," which often signals an early step in the funding process meant to alert potential applicants to an upcoming or targeted award action, or to gather required pre-proposal information ahead of a full application or formal solicitation.
The financial scope is relatively small and targeted: the maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $48,000, with an expectation of a single award being made. That combination suggests a focused project, potentially a pilot effort, a small research study, a planning or synthesis activity, or a limited-scope applied science initiative rather than a large multi-year program. The opportunity was created on March 15, 2019, with an original closing date of March 28, 2019, providing a short turnaround window that is consistent with notices intended for a narrow pool of applicants or for time-sensitive project planning.
In terms of subject matter, the title and description indicate the funded work would relate to species in North America that have cultural importance, which can include species significant to Indigenous communities, local and regional cultural identities, subsistence practices, traditional ecological knowledge, heritage uses, or culturally rooted economic activities. While the posting does not provide technical requirements or deliverables, the stated theme implies potential work such as assessing current and future risks to culturally important species (for example, from climate change, habitat alteration, disease, invasive species, or land and water management changes), evaluating conservation or management strategies, compiling data and knowledge to support decision-making, or developing frameworks for collaboration that respect cultural values and community priorities. Because the administering agency is USGS, the work would likely emphasize scientific research, monitoring, modeling, synthesis of existing information, or decision-support tools that can inform management and policy.
Overall, this is a narrowly defined, one-award USGS grant opportunity aimed at public higher-education institutions, with up to $48,000 available for a project addressing the future status and stewardship of culturally important species across North America, released in mid-March 2019 and originally due by late March 2019.Apply for USGS 19 FA 0043
