On Mobile (iOS/Android) University of Connecticut school of University of Connecticut Under the provisions of section 104 of the Water Resources Research Act of 1984, annual base grants (104b) are awarded to the Institutes or Centers that have been established in each of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam.
The annual base grants help each Institute or Center to plan and conduct applied and peer-reviewed research on water resource issues specific to their state or territory.
The Connecticut Institute of Water Resources (CTIWR) uses the Base Grant to primarily fund freshwater-related research and information transfer projects by investigators from Connecticut universities and colleges on problems of importance to Connecticut and the Northeast Region. The CTIWR uses a pre-proposal and invited full proposal process to select research projects for funding.
For FY26, the Connecticut Institute of Water Resources invites investigators to submit proposals that address critical water research or outreach needs in our state. Applications from early career investigators, and those that provide training for graduate and/or undergraduate students are highly encouraged. The general schedule is as follows: Call for pre-proposals announced ( early November ).
Pre-proposals due to CTIWR ( due November 25, 2025 ). A streamlined preproposal process will be used, where PIs will email the Director a 1-2 page abstract with total funding request noted (see instructions below). Full proposal invitations announced ( Mid Decembe 2025 ).
Invited full proposals due ( January 26, 2026 ). Full proposals sent out for external technical reviews ( February 2026 ). Full proposals evaluated and selected for funding during the CTIWR Advisory Board meeting ( March 2026 ).
Proposals approved for funding announced ( March 2026 ). Final proposal package submitted to the USGS by CTIWR ( May 2026 ). Projects begin ( September 1, 2026) Projects end ( August 31, 2027) Total funds made available for individual projects through the 104B Program vary from year to year.
We expect to have approximately $100,000 to fund projects this year. We request a cap of $30,000 of federal funds per project. One-year projects are preferred .
Two-year projects are acceptable, however, second-year funding is not guaranteed. Any projects requiring two years must be proposed as two separate one-year projects (the first year submitted now (FY 2026) and the second year submitted next year for FY 2027). Federal funds must be matched at least 1:1 with non-federal dollars (every $1 federal funds requested must be matched with $1 from non-federal funds).
Principal Investigator must be at an accredited institution of higher learning in Connecticut to apply. All PIs must submit their pre-proposal to the Connecticut Institute of Water Resources (CTIWR) Director (Michael. Dietz@uconn.
edu) and Associate director (Bo. Tao@uconn. edu) via email, with the subject line “FY26 CTIWR 104b Proposal”.

A new Interior Department policy routes every grant and cooperative agreement of $50,000 or more through two political appointees for manual review. The result is a backlog of roughly 1,400 grants and $362 million in delayed funding — up from fewer than 10 two years ago. Here is how the bottleneck works, why it matters even for recipients who already have an award letter, and what nonprofits, universities, states, and tribes should do to protect projects that depend on Interior dollars.

AI Forge is a jointly governed, university-led venture funding interpretability, control, and adversarial robustness in one-year Project Ventures — here's how the 15 challenges, the CAISI tie, and the nonprofit administrator reshape who gets funded.
Read articleOn June 29, 2026, EPA announced it will waive the $25,000 WIFIA application fee and the credit processing fee — averaging roughly $156,000 per loan — for communities of 25,000 or fewer residents in fiscal years 2026 and 2027. Combined, that removes nearly $200,000 in upfront cost from the single most affordable federal water-infrastructure financing program, which carries roughly $11 billion in available capacity and can cover up to 80% of eligible project costs at Treasury-rate pricing. For small towns, rural utilities, and the nonprofits and districts that serve them, this is a rare instance of the federal government lowering the barrier to a program that has historically been out of reach for exactly the communities that need it most. Here is what changed, who qualifies, and how to move on a letter of interest before the window closes.
