Opportunity Information: Apply for G19AS00020
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), within the Department of the Interior, announced a discretionary research funding opportunity under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network, specifically the Great Lakes Northern Forest CESU. The opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the USGS expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. It is aimed at supporting science and technology or other research and development work tied to water quality and watershed management challenges in and around Madison, Wisconsin.
The focus area for the work is the Rock River Basin, a large watershed of roughly 3,800 square miles where the City of Madison participates in a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) and watershed management plan centered on total phosphorus (TP). In practical terms, the basin includes many surface waters that receive runoff from both agricultural and urban land uses, creating persistent nonpoint source pollution pressures. Excess phosphorus and sediment loads have already contributed to impairment in multiple lakes, rivers, and streams across the basin, and the opportunity frames these pollutants as key drivers of common and costly ecological symptoms: nuisance algal growth, depleted dissolved oxygen, reduced submerged aquatic vegetation, decreased water clarity, and overall habitat degradation. The research supported by this award is therefore tied to understanding, assessing, and ultimately informing management responses to phosphorus and sediment pollution within this watershed context.
Eligibility is limited to partners within the CESU program (listed broadly as "Others" with further detail referenced in the full eligibility text), so it is not a general open solicitation for all applicants. The funding opportunity number is G19AS00020, and it was created on November 20, 2018, with an original closing date of December 7, 2018. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $30,000, with the USGS anticipating making one award. The catalog reference provided is CFDA 15.808, reflecting its placement within USGS assistance programs. Overall, this is a small, targeted research award intended to leverage CESU partnerships to generate applied scientific information relevant to phosphorus-driven water quality impairments and watershed planning needs in the Madison area and the broader Rock River Basin.Apply for G19AS00020
