Members of the NW CASC University Consortium and USGS centers, field stations, and laboratories may submit proposals in response to this funding opportunity. Each proposal must have a principal investigator from an eligible organization. Parties from non-eligible organizations (Federal, State, Tribal, or other) can participate and receive funds via subaward from an eligible organization. Prospective principal investigators are strongly advised to seek out, establish, and clearly describe working partnerships with local or regional stakeholders from organizations concerned with management of natural or cultural resources. These organizations should include bureaus within the U.S. Department of the Interior and/or Northwest Tribes, but may also include other Federal agencies, State agencies, and private or non- governmental entities. Proposals that demonstrate clear engagement with stakeholders from such organizations, showing benefits through a collaborative process, will be evaluated more favorably.
