Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NRCS NH CIG 20 NOFO0001012
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is offering Conservation Innovation Grants (CIG) for federal fiscal year 2020 specifically for projects carried out in New Hampshire. This opportunity is meant to push conservation work beyond standard practice by supporting the development, testing, and adoption of new or improved conservation approaches and technologies. The overall focus sits at the intersection of agriculture, the environment, and natural resources, and it falls under CFDA 10.912. In practical terms, NRCS is looking for project ideas that can demonstrate innovative conservation outcomes that could be replicated or scaled up across the state.
For this New Hampshire CIG competition, up to $200,000 total funding is available in FY 2020. NRCS expects to make about five awards, although the exact number depends on application quality, proposed budgets, and how funds are allocated. The maximum award amount for any single grant is $200,000, meaning one project could potentially receive the full amount, or the funding could be split among multiple smaller projects. Projects can run for one to three years, giving applicants flexibility to propose short pilot demonstrations or multi-year efforts that track results over time.
Eligibility is broad. All non-federal entities and individuals may apply, with the single clear exception being federal agencies, which are not eligible. The listing describes eligibility as unrestricted in the sense that it is open across entity types, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may appear in the full notice. The funding instrument is a discretionary grant administered by NRCS, and applications are expected to be submitted through Grants.gov, where the submission timestamp serves as the official record of when the proposal was received.
The deadline is firm: proposals must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 13, 2020. NRCS notes that the applicant is responsible for ensuring the application is submitted on time and assumes the risk of delays, including technical or processing issues.
