The Arkansas Water Resources Center (“AWRC”) issued a Request for Preproposals.

The Request for Preproposals are in the area of water research.

AWRC stares that the research projects would address “critical water needs in Arkansas.” The funding opportunity is stated to be a component of the U.S. Geological Survey 104B Grant Program.

Eligible applicants include:

. . . Any faculty member or affiliate at a college or university in Arkansas is eligible to apply. Students with a faculty advisor are also eligible to apply for a smaller student grant that supplements current research efforts. Federal employees are NOT eligible as a principal investigator, but can collaborate with faculty as a co-investigator.

A caveat provided is that funding is contingent upon U.S. Geological Survey funds being provided. AWRC states that it anticipates funding faculty researchers up to $25,000 and student researchers up to $10,000.

The deadline to submit preproposals is August 15, 2019.
