Grants.gov currently shows the opportunity as closed, first posted on August 27, 2012. The funding category is Discretionary, delivered as a cooperative agreement.

Award economics. The award range on file is $88,000 -- $88,113. The agency has projected $88,000 in total estimated funding for this announcement. It expects to issue 1 award. If the agency funds the expected 1 award from the $88,000 estimated pool, the average award works out to roughly $88,000. Cost sharing is not required, so applicants do not need to commit matching funds to be competitive on this opportunity. Federal award ranges are often upper bounds; actual allocations reflect program appropriations, the strength of the applicant pool, and the evaluation committee's scoring.

Deadline and action path. This opportunity is closed. Monitoring the parent program page is the most reliable way to catch re-announcements in the next funding cycle. Every Grants.gov submission requires an active SAM.gov registration and a Unique Entity ID. Review the Eligibility section below carefully, federal eligibility categories (nonprofit, state or local government, tribal, individual, educational institution, small business) have distinct registration and reporting requirements. Pre-application outreach to the listed agency contact is permitted and often welcomed, it helps clarify scope and scoring priorities. Before acting on the deadline or award figures above, verify them directly on the official Grants.gov listing, amendments can change dates and amounts after this page was last refreshed.

Description

The purpose of this project is to improve our understanding of the spatial distribution, physical geochemical mobility, and long-term storage of mining-related contaminated sediment and metals in Viburnum Trend (VT) mining district stream sediments and alluvial deposits. Impairment and injury to water and geological resources in streams draining VT mining areas is well documented. However, more information is needed to help environmental managers to effectively plan restoration practices to address sediment contamination problems. First, a systematic evaluation of sediment contamination patterns at the watershed-scale is needed. Sediment sampling and analyses need to be coordinated with similar methods used in all affected watersheds. Conceptual and quantitative models describing the transport pathways and spatial distribution of contaminated sediment need to be developed. Second, contamination assessments need to focus on the role of fine-grained sediment in controlling the level and distribution of contamination in VT streams. Sediment sampling needs to address the variety of alluvial deposits present in affected streams and consider geomorphic and geochemical processes involved in fine-grained sediment transport and deposition, including floodplains. Finally, downstream trends in the mass storage of contaminated sediment and mining-related metals need to be quantified. Understanding the amount of contaminated sediment stored within the river system and available for reworking is critical for understanding the time-scales for geochemical recovery and long-term risk to aquatic life.
