This grant is for the purpose of advancing and coordinating geologic mapping efforts across the United States. Originating from a recognition by the 102nd Congress of the critical need for a unified approach, this initiative seeks to enhance collaboration between the USGS and State Geological Surveys. The program, formalized by the National Geologic Mapping Act of 1992, established the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (NCGMP). Its core mission is to strategically prioritize the Nation’s diverse geologic mapping requirements and significantly boost the production of high-quality geologic maps. This effort, consistently re-authorized by Congress, including most recently in 2019, aims to provide foundational geological data essential for resource management, hazard mitigation, and land-use planning nationwide.

Eligibility
| Eligible Applicants: | Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification) |
| Additional Information on Eligibility: | Only State Geological Surveys are eligible to apply to the STATEMAP component of the NCGMP pursuant to the National Geologic Mapping Act (Public Law 116-9). Because many State Geological Surveys are organized under a State university system, such universities may submit a proposal on behalf of the State Geological Survey. |
Additional Information
| Agency Name: | Geological Survey |
| Description: | The 102nd Congress recognized that the USGS and the State Geological Surveys needed a coordinated program to prioritize the geologic mapping requirements of the Nation, and to increase production of these geologic maps. The National Geologic Mapping Act (Public Law 102-285) was signed into law in 1992 and created the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (NCGMP). The Act has been re-authorized four times since then, most recently by the 116th Congress in 2019 (S. 47: John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act, sec. 5002). |
