North Dakota State University Advanced Nanomaterials Research Facility | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The North Dakota State University Advanced Nanomaterials Research Facility opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: 2010 CIP 04) is a congressionally identified, earmarked grant administered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It sits in the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity area and is listed under CFDA 11.617, which is associated with Congressionally Identified Projects. The key point of this announcement is that it was never intended to be a competitive solicitation; instead, Congress specifically authorized funding for this particular project and institution, and NIST published the listing primarily to handle the required federal grants paperwork through Grants.gov.

Because it is an earmark, eligibility is restricted to a single recipient: the North Dakota State University Advanced Nanomaterials Research Facility. Even though the Eligible Applicants field may show a broader category (for example, "Others"), the eligibility clarification makes it explicit that only the designated institution can apply. The announcement also states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.

Financially, the opportunity indicates an estimated total funding amount of $5,000,000 and anticipates one award. In practical terms, that usually means the full earmarked amount is associated with a single grant action for the named facility, rather than being split among multiple competing applicants or multiple organizations. The award instrument type is a grant, which typically supports a defined project with an approved scope of work, budget, and reporting requirements under federal assistance rules.

In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on March 2, 2010, with an original and current closing date of April 12, 2010, and an archive date of May 12, 2010. These dates matter mostly for administrative compliance, since the forms were placed on Grants.gov so the designated recipient could submit the required materials electronically within the federal system. The announcement explicitly notes that the application forms were configured so that only the intended recipient could submit, reinforcing that this is an administrative pathway for an already-directed appropriation rather than an open call for proposals.

For support or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Christopher Hunton, Grants Technical Assistant at NIST, reachable by phone at 301-975-5718.
