Opportunity Summary:
The Commercial Driver Individual Study 2010 grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DTMC75 10 H 00007) was a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), under CFDA 20.239, Motor Carrier Research and Technology Programs. It falls within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity area and was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal agency expected to have substantial involvement in the project as it was carried out rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation.
The opportunity was originally posted on August 23, 2010, with key dates showing it was posted/created in the grants system on September 1, 2010, and it closed on September 22, 2010. The archive date was October 22, 2010, indicating it was formally moved into archived status after the application window ended. Applicants were instructed to obtain the full application package through the "Apply for Grants" section by downloading the materials tied to DTMC75 10 H 00007, since the summary posting itself did not include the full technical and administrative requirements.
In terms of funding, FMCSA anticipated making a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $3,000,000. The award ceiling and award floor were both set at $3,000,000, which effectively signaled a fixed-size award: the agency planned to fund one project at that amount rather than a range of possible budgets. The notice also specified that there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating the competition was aimed at state universities, public colleges, and similar government-controlled academic institutions, rather than private universities, nonprofits broadly, or for-profit entities. While the brief synopsis provided does not describe the study design, research questions, or deliverables, the title and the program alignment indicate the project was intended to support research related to commercial drivers as part of FMCSA's motor carrier safety research and technology mission.
For administrative or technical issues accessing the full announcement electronically, the listing provided a point of contact: Rubie King, Contracting Officer, reachable by phone at (202) 366-0518, with the email shown as "Rubie.B.King" (as written in the source summary).
