Abstract: This notice concerns the
collection of information that is
sufficient and relevant to evaluate and
select proposals for funding under the
NGGDPP. We will accept proposals
from State geological surveys requesting
funds to inventory and assess the
condition of existing collections and
preserve and modernize geological and
geophysical data. Financial assistance
will be awarded annually on a
competitive basis following the
evaluation and ranking of State
proposals by a review panel composed
of representatives from the U.S.
Department of the Interior, State
geological surveys, and academic
institutions.
To submit a proposal, respondents
must complete a project narrative and
submit the application online via
www.grants.gov. Grant recipients must
complete a final technical report at the
end of the project period. Narrative and
report guidance is available at http://
datapreservation.usgs.gov and at
www.grants.gov.
Annual data preservation priorities
are provided in the notice of funding
opportunity as guidance for applicants
to consider when submitting proposals.
Since its inception in 2007, the
NGGDPP has awarded 46 States with
$28.7 million, which, when matched or
exceeded by State funding, amounts to
over $57.4 million invested in the
rescue and preservation efforts.
This notice concerns the collection of
