Opportunity Information: Apply for G24AS00397
The US Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a discretionary financial assistance opportunity through a Cooperative Agreement for a partner institution affiliated with the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) National Network. The project focus is biogeochemistry research aimed at evaluating the bioaccessibility of lead and other elements in contaminated soils collected from a variety of environments. In practical terms, the work is meant to improve understanding of how readily contaminants in soil can become available for uptake (for example, through ingestion or other exposure pathways), which is a key factor in assessing potential human and ecological risk and in informing cleanup or management decisions.
This opportunity is released under the CESU Program, which is a collaborative partnership framework designed to connect federal agencies with universities, nonprofit organizations, and other research partners to deliver research, technical assistance, and education. Because it is issued under the CESU mechanism, eligibility is limited: applicants must already be an official participating partner in the CESU National Network. The listing identifies the Eligible Applicants category as "Others," reflecting that the competition is not broadly open to the general public and is instead restricted to qualifying CESU partners.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the USGS expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds. In many federal contexts, that can include collaboration on study design, coordination on sampling plans, shared interpretation of results, periodic technical check-ins, and alignment with USGS scientific needs. The activity category is Science and Technology and other Research and Development, and the CFDA (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing) number associated with the program is 15.808.
Key administrative details include the Funding Opportunity Number G24AS00397 and a posted opportunity creation date of June 12, 2024. The original application closing date is July 29, 2024. The stated award ceiling is $33,100. The notice lists "ExpectedAwards:" but does not provide a number in the source data shown, so the anticipated count of awards is not specified in the provided text. Overall, this is a targeted, CESU-restricted USGS research award intended to support a defined biogeochemistry study on contaminant bioaccessibility in soils, with an emphasis on lead and potentially other harmful elements across different environmental settings.Apply for G24AS00397
