Opportunity Summary:
The 2014-2015 Groundwater Measurement Project (Funding Opportunity Number R14AS00048) was a discretionary grant offered by the Bureau of Reclamation under CFDA 15.519, Indian Tribal Water Resources Development, Management, and Protection. The central purpose of the opportunity was to increase opportunities for federally recognized Indian Tribes to develop, manage, and protect water-related resources, with a specific focus implied by the title on groundwater measurement activities. In practical terms, this type of funding is meant to help Tribes strengthen their capacity to understand groundwater conditions, improve data collection and monitoring, and support informed water management and protection decisions.
This opportunity was structured as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) within the Environment and Natural Resources activity category. The program anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $50,000. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) was $50,000, and the minimum award amount (award floor) was listed as $0, indicating that proposals could request up to the full amount available and that there was no stated minimum request threshold in the summary information provided. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award, which can lower barriers for participation and make it easier to propose needed monitoring or measurement work.
Eligibility was limited to Native American tribal governments that are federally recognized. This aligns with the stated intent of the funding, which is targeted specifically at supporting Tribal water resource development, management, and protection efforts. The opportunity was posted on May 14, 2014, and had a short application window, with an original and current closing date of May 29, 2014.
