Opportunity Information: Apply for G23AS00436
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a discretionary funding opportunity through a Cooperative Agreement to support research and development work that will strengthen how policy information is gathered and used for introduced and invasive species management. This opportunity is specifically issued under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) framework, which is a federal partnership program designed to connect government agencies with academic and other partner organizations to deliver research, technical assistance, and educational support. In practical terms, the award supports a project that is both research-oriented and implementation-oriented, with USGS expecting to be actively involved through the cooperative agreement structure.
The core purpose of the project is to build and maintain a dynamic database that compiles and organizes policies related to introduced and invasive species across multiple jurisdictions in the United States. The database is intended to cover U.S. state and territory policies, federal policies, and Tribal policies. A major emphasis is not just collecting these policies, but structuring them in a way that is useful for real-world response and decision-making, and ensuring the database can be updated over time as laws, regulations, executive actions, and guidance documents change.
A key requirement is that the resulting policy database must integrate with the National Early Detection and Rapid Response (EDRR) Information System. That means the work is expected to align with the goals of early detection and rapid response efforts by making policy and authority information easier to find and use when agencies and partners are planning or executing actions to prevent introductions, detect new incursions, and respond quickly to emerging invasive species threats. Integration implies attention to interoperability, data standards, and technical considerations so the policy content can connect to or be consumed by the broader EDRR information infrastructure.
Eligibility is limited: applicants must be participating partners of the Chesapeake Watershed CESU Program. The opportunity is not open broadly to the general public or all institutions; it is restricted to organizations that are already part of that specific CESU network. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement (rather than a standard grant), which typically indicates substantial involvement or collaboration by the federal agency during the performance of the project, such as coordination on approach, deliverables, or integration requirements.
Administrative details from the source listing include the funding opportunity title "Cooperative Agreement for CESU-affiliated Partner with Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit" and the funding opportunity number G23AS00436. The issuing agency is the Geological Survey (USGS). The activity category is Science and Technology and other Research and Development, and the CFDA (now often referenced as Assistance Listing) number is 15.808. The opportunity was created on 2023-06-28, and the original closing date was 2023-08-18. The maximum award amount listed is $50,000. The listing indicates expected awards but does not provide a specific number in the provided source data.
Overall, this opportunity is aimed at producing a practical, updateable policy resource that helps agencies and partners quickly understand what legal and policy tools exist across jurisdictions for invasive species prevention and response, while also ensuring that the information can be directly integrated into the national EDRR information ecosystem for maximum operational value.Apply for G23AS00436
