Opportunity snapshot. This Grants.gov announcement - Investigation Into Overtopping Mitigation Strategies - is cataloged under number W81EWF-24-SOI-0038 and tied to CFDA assistance listing 12.630, posted by Engineer Research and Development Center. Grants.gov currently shows the opportunity as closed, first posted on July 12, 2024. The funding category is Discretionary, delivered as a cooperative agreement.
Award economics. The award range on file is Up to $400,000. The agency has projected $400,000 in total estimated funding for this announcement. It expects to issue 1 award. If the agency funds the expected 1 award from the $400,000 estimated pool, the average award works out to roughly $400,000. 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 closed on August 27, 2024. Future funding cycles may be published under the same CFDA number, so monitoring the parent program page is the most reliable way to catch re-announcements. 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.

Cooperative Agreement
Description
This agreement represents an opportunity for research into mitigation strategies for embankment and floodwall overtopping breach. To accomplish this, the following is anticipated:1. Assess factors that may lead to overtopping breach and relevant failure mechanisms for the different embankment and floodwall designs that are common to the USACE inventory. Assess the current state of practice for numerical modeling used for performance predictions of levees and floodwalls with regards to overtopping breach. Collect case histories of overtopping events for use in analytical or numerical assessment of embankment and floodwall performance when overtopping occurs.2. Identify the current state of practice for mitigating overtopping of flood control levees and floodwalls, including USACE and international approaches. Identify potential emerging technologies that could be used to mitigate overtopping breach of flood control embankments and floodwalls.3. Perform laboratory investigations to quantify potential improvement of embankment and floodwall foundation soils during overtopping. Saturated and unsaturated soil mechanics approaches could be explored when appropriate.4. Investigate and develop numerical methodologies to improve current numerical performance predictions. Identify advanced approaches and define when these might improve performance predictions. Identify uncertainty in standard and advanced numerical approaches.5. Perform physical testing to assess different mitigation strategies for overtopping performance of the different mitigation strategies. Provide quantifiable design recommendation based on these tests as well as data for the validation of numerical models.
