Opportunity Summary:
The Long Term Resource Monitoring Program (LTRMP) FY 2017 funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number G17AS00007) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). It supports the Long Term Resource Monitoring Program, a multi-state, science-based monitoring effort focused on the Upper Mississippi River System. The program is structured as a collaboration between USGS and five participating states: Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin. The core purpose is to sustain and advance long-term monitoring work that informs management and understanding of environmental and natural resource conditions in this major river system.
This opportunity falls under the broad funding activity categories of Environment, Natural Resources, and Science and Technology and other Research and Development, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.978. The instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency during the performance of the project. In practical terms, applicants should expect active coordination with USGS and alignment with established LTRMP monitoring objectives, methods, and program priorities rather than operating as a fully independent grantee.
Eligibility is listed as "Others" with additional clarification referenced in the full announcement under an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section, meaning interested applicants would need to consult the complete grant notice to confirm whether their organization type and role fit the program's requirements. The opportunity was created on September 23, 2016. Two key closing dates are provided: January 15, 2017 for submissions involving a new proposal or changes in scope of work or total estimated cost, and March 31, 2017 for other modifications that do not change the scope of work or total estimated cost. This structure suggests the program accommodates different types of requests or revisions, with earlier deadlines for more substantive changes and a later deadline for more administrative or limited adjustments.
The stated award ceiling is up to $1,000,000, setting an upper limit on the amount that could be awarded under this opportunity. The notice lists "Expected Awards: 0," which can indicate that the agency did not specify a planned number of awards at the time of posting or that awards may depend on availability of funds, program needs, or other administrative factors. Overall, this opportunity is aimed at maintaining or enhancing coordinated, long-term monitoring activities for the Upper Mississippi River System through a cooperative partnership framework led by USGS in collaboration with the five participating states.
