About this opportunity
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), a bureau of the Department of the Interior, is soliciting a Cooperative Agreement from a Hawaii-Pacific Island Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner to conduct economic research on brown treesnake-caused power outages in Guam. The primary objective is to evaluate the economic impact of these outages and assess potential economic tradeoffs between different brown treesnake control approaches based on the number and type of outages they prevent. Applications must be submitted through Grants.gov using Standard Form (SF) 424 by June 12, 2026. USGS scientists will evaluate proposals based on scientific excellence and relevance to USGS mission objectives, with funding provided only as available. Recipients must comply with 2 CFR Part 200 and Department of the Interior regulations (2 CFR Part 1402), including audit requirements and maintenance of financial and programmatic records for three years following submission of the final financial report.
Typical awards under the USGS Research and Data Collection program (CFDA 15.808) range from approximately $30,000 to $2.7 million with performance periods of one to five years, though specific funding levels for this particular opportunity were not disclosed in the announcement. The place of performance is Guam, where researchers will conduct field-based economic analysis and data collection related to brown treesnake impacts. Applicants should expect that geospatial datasets will be a deliverable product subject to submission requirements detailed in the attachment specifications, and proposals must include a Project Abstract Summary limited to one page formatted in 12-point Times New Roman font.
Synopsis
The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for research work intended to evaluate the economic impact of brown treesnake caused power outages in Guam.
