We have received notice that the Department of the Interior has approved the FY 2021 Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Water Resources Research Act Program Section 104(b). We expect the RFP to be published soon.
The due date for submissions to the MWRRC has been extended to Friday, May 7, 11:59 p.m. EDT. For guidance and format, see the previous post, MWRRC Invites FY 2021 104(b) Proposals.
Estimated start date: June 1.
In anticipation of the official release of the USGS Request for Proposals (RFP) for the FY 2021 104(b) Water Resources Research Act program, the MWRRC invites proposals from Principal Investigators (PIs) at institutions of higher education in Maryland.
Proposals should be submitted to the MWRRC by 11:59 p.m., Friday, April 23, 2021, following the guidelines in the example RFP, Example_RFP-MD104b-2020.
The Center suggests a start date of mid-May. Projects will be funded for one year. Specific start and end dates will be set by the forthcoming USGS 2021 RFP.
If the 2021 RFP, when published, requires adjustments, the Center will work with PIs to prepare the selected proposals for submission to the USGS on behalf of the Center.
Proposals may address any water resources topic important to Maryland and to the education of water scientists, engineers, and other professionals in Maryland. This year, the Center particularly invites proposals on the following topics:
The Center also welcomes proposals for Summer 2021 Graduate Student Fellowships (see https://blog.umd.edu/mwrrc/grad-fellowships/ )
