The Arkansas Water Resources Center (“AWRC”) has announced it is inviting pre-proposals for research projects addressing “critical water issues in Arkansas.”
The AWRC states that this “funding opportunity” is a part of the US Geological Survey 104B Grants Program.
The AWRC states in regards to eligibility:
. . . any faculty member or affiliate at a college or university in Arkansas, or a student with a faculty advisor is eligible to apply. Federal employees are NOT eligible as a principal investigator, but can collaborate with faculty as a co-investigator.
Funding is stated to be contingent upon USGS funds being provided. However, AWRC anticipates funding faculty researchers up to $25,000 and student researchers up to $10,000.
The deadline to submit pre-proposals is stated to be August 11, 2017.
The AWRC describes itself as one of a number of water research institutions established at land-grant universities by Congress in 1964 throughout the United States. The institution is located at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville and part of a network of 54 water resource institutes.
