Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity is a Notice of Intent to Award issued by the Bureau of Reclamation for a cooperative agreement with Utah State University. It is explicitly described as not competitive, meaning the agency is signaling its plan to make a single, direct award rather than soliciting proposals from multiple applicants. The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number R14AC00094 and is categorized as a discretionary award, with the activity area focused on natural resources.
The expected award count is one, and the only eligible applicant category identified is public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, which aligns with Utah State University as the intended recipient. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates the Bureau of Reclamation anticipates having substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, collaboration on technical direction, coordination, or review), as opposed to a standard grant where the recipient generally has more autonomy.
Financially, the opportunity shows an estimated total funding amount of $30,000. The award ceiling is also $30,000, while the award floor is listed as $1, indicating the agency set a maximum planned award amount at $30,000 but recorded the minimum possible award value as $1 for administrative purposes. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.560, tied to SECURE Water Act Research Agreements. This suggests the award is connected to research or applied work supporting water resource management priorities under the SECURE Water Act framework, although the notice as provided does not include technical details about the specific scope of work or project outcomes.
Key dates show the posting date and creation date as August 25, 2014. The original and current closing date is September 9, 2014, and the archive date is September 10, 2014. Those dates reflect the administrative window for the notice, even though the award itself is intended and not competed.
