Opportunity Information: Apply for USGS 19 FA 0016
The Notice of Intent titled "Tribal Climate Adaptation 2.0" is a discretionary grant opportunity issued by the Department of the Interior through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). It is identified by Funding Opportunity Number USGS 19 FA 0016 and was created on November 21, 2018, with an original closing date of December 5, 2018. As a Notice of Intent, it signals the agency's plan to make an award and provides an early snapshot of the basic parameters of the forthcoming or planned funding action, including who may apply, the general purpose of the work, and the expected funding size and volume.
The program falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.820, which corresponds to USGS-related assistance listings. The primary focus implied by the title and description, "Tribal Climate Adaptation 2.0," is work related to climate adaptation in tribal contexts, typically involving planning, assessment, tools, or applied research that supports tribal communities in responding to climate-driven impacts on lands, water, ecosystems, infrastructure, and cultural resources. While the source details provided do not include a full scope of work, the framing indicates an emphasis on advancing or updating approaches to tribal climate adaptation, consistent with applied science and decision-support efforts that USGS commonly funds under natural resource and climate resilience themes.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. That means applicants generally must be state or publicly governed colleges and universities, rather than private universities, nonprofit organizations, tribes themselves (unless they apply through an eligible public institution), or for-profit entities. In practice, this type of eligibility often supports partnerships where a university collaborates with tribal governments or intertribal organizations to co-develop adaptation strategies, compile climate vulnerability information, build local capacity, or deliver technical support products that tribes can directly use for decision-making.
Funding is provided through the grant instrument type. The award ceiling listed is $52,483, indicating the maximum amount available for a single award under this notice. The expected number of awards is 1, so the opportunity is structured as a single-project competition or a targeted award rather than a broad multi-award program. With a single award and a modest ceiling, the likely project scale is focused and deliverable-oriented, such as producing a specific adaptation product, conducting a defined assessment, supporting a pilot adaptation action, or creating an updated version of an existing adaptation framework or resource (as suggested by the "2.0" designation).
Overall, this Notice of Intent describes a small, single-award USGS discretionary grant designed to support tribal climate adaptation-related work in the natural resources arena, with applications restricted to public/state higher education institutions, a maximum award size of $52,483, and an original application deadline of December 5, 2018.Apply for USGS 19 FA 0016
