| Agency Name: | Bureau of Reclamation |
| Description: | Through this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), Reclamation is forming partnerships with private industry, universities, water utilities, and others to address a broad range of desalting and water purification needs. Reclamation is interested in research where the benefits are widespread but where private-sector entities are not able to make the full investment and assume all the risks. Reclamation is also interested in research that has a national significance—where the issues are of large-scale concern and the benefits accrue to a large sector of the public. This FOA is only for Research and Laboratory Studies. Research studies are typically bench scale studies involving small flow rates less than 2 gallons per minute. They are used to determine the viability of a novel process, new materials, or process modifications. Research at this stage often involves a high degree of risk and uncertainty. Cost share is encouraged, but not required for institutions of higher education. Other applicants must provide at least 50 percent non-Federal cost-share. |
