This is a federal research grant open only to the 54 Water Resources Research Institutes established under the Water Resources Research Act of 1984, hosted at universities in the 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam. If you are not one of those Institutes, you cannot apply, no matter how good your water research idea is. Small businesses, nonprofits, and individual researchers should not bother applying directly; the only path is partnering with their state's Institute.
