Opportunity Information: Apply for G20AS00008
The 2020 National Geological and Geophysical Data Preservation Program Announcement (Funding Opportunity Number G20AS00008) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) within the Department of the Interior. It supports work related to natural resources, specifically the preservation of geological and geophysical data that are considered valuable for long-term public use. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.814, which is commonly used to track and categorize federal assistance for this type of data preservation effort.
This opportunity uses a cooperative agreement as its funding instrument. In practice, that typically means the work is funded by the federal government but carried out with more direct federal involvement than a standard grant. Cooperative agreements often include collaboration, coordination, and technical input from the agency during the project period, especially when the agency has a strong interest in how the work is implemented or when consistency with national standards is important. The underlying goal is to help ensure important geologic and geophysical records are protected, organized, and kept accessible so they can continue to support science, land and resource management, hazard assessments, energy and mineral evaluations, environmental work, and other public-benefit applications.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, meaning the program is designed for state-level entities rather than individuals, universities, nonprofits, or private companies. The announcement was created on November 4, 2019, and the original application deadline was January 6, 2020. The award ceiling listed is $100,000, indicating that individual awards were not expected to exceed that amount. The opportunity anticipated making approximately 35 awards, which suggests the program aimed to distribute funding across a broad set of states and projects rather than concentrating funding into a small number of large awards.
Overall, this funding opportunity represents a targeted federal effort to help states preserve and safeguard critical geological and geophysical data assets, using cooperative agreements to promote coordination with USGS priorities and practices.Apply for G20AS00008
