Opportunity Information: Apply for G25AS00484
The FY2025 Water Resources Research Act Program National Competitive Grants opportunity focuses on research related to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Administered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) under Section 104 of the Water Resources Research Act, this program supports water-related research projects conducted through designated Water Resources Research Institutes, one located in each U.S. state and territory.
Only these Institutes are eligible to receive grants directly, but any researcher at a U.S. institution of higher learning may apply by working through their state’s Institute. Proposals must be submitted via Grants.gov and include standard forms (SF-424, SF-424B), a full proposal, and budget documentation. Institutes may allow the use of requested funds as matching contributions at their discretion.
The program does not fund:
- Research involving human subjects focused on health effects - Oceanographic studies (though estuarine research is allowed) - Proposals not aligned with program objectives - Proposals from Institutes with outstanding reporting issues - Federal employees as principal investigators or recipients of federal funds - Projects using federal funds or federal personnel for required matching contributions
Applicants and key personnel must be cleared through the SAM.gov Exclusions database to ensure eligibility. The goal is to support applied research that addresses PFAS contamination and its impact on water resources.Apply for G25AS00484
