Opportunity Information: Apply for G22AS00641
The WATER RESOURCES RESEARCH ACT PROGRAM NATIONAL COMPETITIVE GRANTS FY2022 PROGRAM ANNOUNCEMENT (104g General) is a federally funded competitive grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under the authority of Section 104 of the Water Resources Research Act of 1984. That law, as amended through multiple public laws, directs the Secretary of the Interior to provide program grants to a national network of Water Resources Research Institutes (WRRIs). These institutes exist to support applied research, training, and information transfer related to water resources, and they serve as the formal eligible entities through which this national competitive grant program operates.
A key feature of this opportunity is that funding is legally limited to the WRRIs established under Section 104(a) of the Act. There are 54 eligible institutes covering every U.S. state plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam. The Guam institute also serves the Federated States of Micronesia and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, while the Hawaii institute also serves American Samoa. Even though awards can only be made to these institutes, the program still creates a pathway for broad academic participation: any investigator at a U.S. institution of higher education can be part of a proposal, as long as the proposal is submitted through an eligible WRRI.
From an applicant and submission standpoint, proposals must be routed through the university where the WRRI is housed and submitted electronically through Grants.gov. The required application package includes a full proposal and standard federal forms, specifically the SF-424 (Application for Federal Assistance), SF-424B (Assurances for Non-Construction Programs), and the associated budget forms. In practice, this means researchers typically coordinate with the institute director and the university sponsored programs office to ensure the submission is properly prepared, authorized, and compliant with federal grants requirements.
The announcement also notes that proposals may request matching funds from an institute, but that match support is not guaranteed and is explicitly left to the discretion of the individual Institute Director. In other words, institutes can choose whether to contribute additional funds or cost share depending on their priorities and available resources, so prospective investigators generally need to discuss match expectations early with the relevant WRRI.
For the FY2022 cycle reflected in the source data, the opportunity is listed as a discretionary grant under the natural resources funding activity category (CFDA 15.805) with a funding opportunity number of G22AS00641. The posting date is March 15, 2022, and the original closing date is May 10, 2022. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $250,000.Apply for G22AS00641
