Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS FA 17 0279
This opportunity is a Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Notice of Intent to make a single cooperative agreement award for a project titled "Glacial Mapping of Western Waushara County Wisconsin." It is listed as a discretionary funding opportunity under the Natural Resources activity category, with assistance listed under CFDA 15.808. The notice indicates the USGS planned to award the agreement specifically to the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey, operating under the University of Wisconsin, which also aligns with the stated eligibility category of public and state-controlled institutions of higher education.
The purpose of the project is focused and technical: producing Quaternary geologic mapping for western Waushara County, Wisconsin. The core objective is to map the Quaternary geology within three named 7.5-minute USGS topographic quadrangles: Coloma, Richford, and Wautoma. The mapping is specified at a 1:24,000 scale, which is a standard detailed scale for geologic quadrangle mapping and is commonly used to support local to regional interpretations of surficial deposits and glacial landforms. In practical terms, this kind of work typically documents and delineates glacial sediments and related deposits (for example, tills, outwash, ice-contact stratified deposits, lake sediments, and alluvium), as well as landform features tied to glacial history, with the end product supporting both scientific understanding and applied land and water resource decisions.
The funding structure is a cooperative agreement, which generally signals substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project period compared with a more hands-off grant. The opportunity lists an award ceiling of $53,857 and anticipates one award, reinforcing that it is intended as a directed award rather than a competitive multi-recipient program announcement. The funding opportunity number is USGS FA 17 0279. Key dates included are a creation date of July 14, 2017, and an original closing date of July 28, 2017, indicating a short response window consistent with a notice of intent for a planned, specific recipient.
In summary, the notice lays out a small, single-award USGS cooperative agreement to the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey (University of Wisconsin) to complete detailed Quaternary (glacial and recent) geologic mapping across the Coloma, Richford, and Wautoma 7.5-minute quadrangles in Waushara County at 1:24,000 scale, with a maximum planned federal funding level of $53,857.Apply for USGS FA 17 0279
