Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "FY 2015 Research Opportunities in High Energy Physics" (Funding Opportunity Number DE FOA 0001140) is a discretionary grant announcement from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Science, specifically its Office of High Energy Physics. The purpose of the announcement is to solicit new grant applications that support research programs in High Energy Physics, placing it within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category. The assistance is offered through the DOE Office of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049), and it is framed as an open call for research proposals rather than a narrowly limited competition tied to a single project site or single institution type.
From an eligibility standpoint, the opportunity is broadly open. In general, all types of applicants are eligible to apply, with two key exclusions spelled out in the notice: Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) contractors are not eligible to apply, and nonprofit organizations classified under section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 are also ineligible if they engaged in lobbying activities after December 31, 1995. Beyond organizational eligibility, the announcement also notes that individuals who have the skills, knowledge, and resources needed to carry out the proposed work may serve as Program Director or Principal Investigator, working through their organizations to submit an application. The notice explicitly encourages participation by individuals from underrepresented groups and individuals with disabilities, signaling DOE's interest in broadening participation in the high energy physics research community.
The timeline information indicates that the opportunity was posted on July 22, 2014, with a creation date of July 30, 2014. The original closing date was September 4, 2014, and it was later extended to a current closing date of September 23, 2014. The archive date is October 22, 2014, meaning the opportunity was expected to be formally closed and stored after that point. These dates matter for understanding the historical window of submission and for tracking the specific FOA in federal systems and institutional records.
Several funding fields are listed but do not provide numeric detail in the source data provided. Estimated total funding is shown as 0, and award ceiling and award floor are also shown as 0. In many federal listings, entries like these can occur when the agency does not publish specific dollar amounts in the summary record, when amounts vary by subtopic or program area, or when funding levels depend on annual appropriations and programmatic decisions communicated in the full FOA text. In practice, applicants typically need to consult the full announcement for any topic-specific guidance on expected budgets, performance periods, and the anticipated number of awards. The notice also makes clear that there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to provide a non-federal funding match as a condition of eligibility.
For applicants or administrators trying to access the full announcement details, an additional information link is provided via FedConnect, which is a common portal used for federal assistance and contracting notices. The contact person listed for access issues or questions is Abid M. Patwa, reachable by phone at 301-903-0408 or by email at abid.patwa@science.doe.gov. This contact information is primarily aimed at helping prospective applicants obtain the full documentation and resolve technical access problems, though programmatic questions are also often routed through the listed point of contact depending on DOE's internal practices for that FOA.
In short, this FOA is a DOE Office of Science grant opportunity seeking proposals that advance research in high energy physics, open to a wide range of applicant organizations and qualified investigators, with no cost-sharing requirement, a submission window that closed in September 2014, and full details available through FedConnect and the listed DOE contact.
