Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number G23AS00207) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), specifically through the Wyoming-Montana Water Science Center. It supports a research project titled "Tongue River 2100: Future Tongue River streamflow estimates to enable Northern Cheyenne data-driven water management and planning." The central purpose is to develop estimates of future streamflow for the Tongue River in Montana so Tribal leaders and community partners, including the Northern Cheyenne, can use credible scientific information to guide water management, long-range planning, and decision making in the face of changing conditions.
The project is positioned as applied science and technology research (CFDA 15.808) focused on translating stakeholder needs into usable hydrologic information. Rather than being a purely academic modeling effort, the scope emphasizes collaboration: researchers are expected to work directly with Tribal and community project partners to understand what kinds of future streamflow information they actually need, when they need it, and in what format it is most useful. Those needs then get converted into concrete scientific analyses and deliverables, with an explicit expectation that results will be communicated back to partners in a way that supports practical decisions, not just technical reporting.
Because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, substantial involvement from USGS is implied compared to a standard grant. In practice, this typically means the USGS may play an active role in shaping technical approaches, coordinating data and methods, participating in meetings with partners, and ensuring the outputs align with agency standards and stakeholder objectives. The activity category is listed as Science and Technology and other Research and Development, which fits the project goal of producing forward-looking hydrologic estimates that can support planning and risk management.
Eligibility is limited to organizations that are already participating partners in the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program. CESUs are structured partnerships designed to connect federal agencies with universities, tribes, non-profits, and other entities to deliver research, technical assistance, and education. This opportunity is specifically issued under the CESU framework, so applicants must be affiliated with the Pacific Northwest CESU to be considered eligible.
In terms of funding details, the award ceiling is $42,380. The opportunity was created on February 8, 2023, with an original closing date of March 8, 2023. While the notice lists "ExpectedAwards:" without a number provided in the source text, the overall scale of the ceiling suggests a relatively focused project or a discrete component of a larger effort, aimed at generating decision-relevant streamflow projections and related communication products for Tongue River water planning.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted, partner-driven research effort: build future Tongue River streamflow estimates, align the analyses with Northern Cheyenne and community information needs, and deliver results in a form that directly supports data-driven Tribal water management and long-term planning.
