mortgage insurance is terminated and
no claim for insurance benefits will be
filed. This information is submitted on

Abstract: The U.S. Geological Survey
(USGS) Water Resources Research Act
(WRRA) program issues an annual
announcement to solicit applications for
the noncompetitive State Water
Resources Research Program annual

the Water Resources Research Act of
1984 (Pub. L. 98–242), as amended [42
U.S.C. 10303(c)].
Annual grants (104c) may contain
research and information transfer
projects as well as an administration
project describing the Institute’s overall
administration and objectives. The
research projects are generally selected
in a competitive statewide solicitation,
peer review, and selection process
designed and conducted by each
Institute. National competitive grants
(104g) will focus on water problems and
issues of a regional or interstate nature
beyond those of concern only to a single
state and which relate to specific
program priorities identified jointly by
the Secretary (of the Interior) and the
Institutes.
The State Water Resources Research
Institutes were established under
Section 104(a) of the Act [42 U.S.C.
10303(a)]. There are 54 Water Resources
Research Institutes, one in each state,
the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico,
the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam. The
Institutes are organized as the National
Institutes for Water Resources (NIWR).
The NIWR cooperates with the USGS in
establishing total programmatic
direction, reporting on the activities of
the Institutes, coordinating and
facilitating regional research, and
information and technology transfer.

Resources Research Institute Program

Competitive Grants, and Reporting.
OMB Control Number: 1028–0097.
