Opportunity Summary:

The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) grant opportunity titled "Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit" (Funding Opportunity Number G11AS20016) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under CFDA 15.808, which covers USGS Research and Data Collection. It is tied specifically to the Californian CESU network, one of several regional CESU partnerships designed to connect federal agencies with universities and other partner organizations in order to support research, technical assistance, and education related to natural and cultural resource management. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally means USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply providing funds, such as collaborating on the technical approach, coordination, or project oversight.

This opportunity falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category and anticipates making a single award. The estimated total funding amount is $99,833. No cost sharing or matching is required, meaning applicants are not obligated to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The listing shows no formal award ceiling or floor (both listed as $0), which typically indicates that the agency did not publish fixed minimum or maximum award sizes in the summary record and that the actual amount would be governed by the project scope, the available funding, and the final negotiated budget.

Eligibility is limited. Applicants must already be a participating partner of the Californian Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit Program. The eligibility category is broadly labeled as "Others," with clarification provided in the opportunity text that only Californian CESU partners may apply. In practice, CESU partner organizations commonly include member universities, non-profit organizations, and other institutions that have joined the CESU cooperative network through an established partnership agreement; entities outside that partnership are not eligible for this particular funding action.

Key dates in the public record show the opportunity was posted March 3, 2011, created April 19, 2011, and originally scheduled to close March 14, 2011, with a later current closing date of April 27, 2011. The opportunity was archived on August 3, 2011. The public summary points readers to Grants.gov for the full announcement details, including any specific project description, deliverables, proposal requirements, and evaluation criteria that may not appear in the short synopsis.

For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Faith Graves, Contract Specialist at USGS, reachable by phone at 703-648-7356 or by email at fgraves@usgs.gov.
