By digitizing criminal court files, the project will expedite investigations and prosecutions, ensuring that individuals accused of collaborating with Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTO)s or Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCO)s, including those who threaten U.S. Interests, are held accountable. Enhanced digital access will also strengthen collaboration between U.S. and Lebanese Law Enforcement Agencies, enabling both countries to access criminal case files in minutes rather than months. This will significantly enhance the ability of U.S. agencies to investigate and disrupt FTO and TCO activities in Lebanon, directly supporting U.S. national security objectives.

The primary objective of the EDMAP component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (NCGMP) is to train the next generation of geologic mappers. To do this, the NCGMP provides funds for graduate student and upper-level undergraduate student projects relevant to the creation of geologic maps (defined broadly as maps that characterize the solid Earth and/or its constituents). Through these cooperative agreements, the NCGMP hopes to expand the research and educational capacity of national academic programs that teach Earth science students the broad range of techniques relevant to geologic mapping and the analysis of field, geophysical, borehole, and remote sensing data. As of 2024, EDMAP has funded more than 1,501 students from more than 177 universities. A list of funded FY2025 EDMAP projects can be found in Attachment D of this announcement. For more information about the USGS NCGMP EDMAP Program please visit: EDMAP | U.S. Geological Survey (usgs.gov) or email EDMAP@usgs.gov.

The NSF FINDERS FOUNDRY program supports collaboration among K-12 educators, technologists, and researchers to develop innovative solutions to persistent challenges in learning and workforce development. These challenges are identified by K-12 students, families, and educators. The program aims to create and scale evidence-based practices, tools, and technologies that improve learning outcomes and prepare students for a digital, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven future. A key focus is early exposure to AI to build curiosity, understanding, and readiness for future careers. The program encourages partnerships across sectors - schools, universities, industry, government, and nonprofits - to co-design responsive, technology-based solutions. NSF FINDERS FOUNDRY program includes two phases: Planning and Development. Planning proposals help teams explore one of several focus areas. Only teams awarded Planning grants may submit Development proposals, which support the growth and implementation of promising ideas. The program aligns with national priorities, including the Executive Order 14277, “Advancing Artificial Intelligence Education for American Youth” (April 23, 2025), and the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022, Public Law 117-167, Sections 10381-10383 and 10395.

The primary objective of the STATEMAP component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program (NCGMP) is to establish the geologic framework of areas determined to be vital to the economic, social, or scientific welfare of individual States and the Nation. The State Geologist/Survey Director/Chief Scientist (or similar position) shall determine mapping priorities in consultation with a multidiscipline State Mapping Advisory Committee (SMAC). These priorities shall be determined on the basis of: (1) State requirements for geologic map information in areas of multiple issue need or areas of compelling single-issue need, and (2) State requirements for geologic map information in areas where mapping is required to solve critical earth science problems. Priorities are not dependent on past agreements with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).The STATEMAP Program fulfills the NCGMP mission and supports Department of the Interior (DOI) Secretarial priorities (see https://www.doi.gov/performance/strategic-planning for the current DOI Strategic Plan) by developing a national geologic framework through the generation of new two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) geologic map databases. STATEMAP is directly supportive of EO 14154 ("Unleashing American Energy"), and Secretarial Orders 3417 ("Addressing the National Energy Emergency") and 3418 ("Unleashing American Energy"), which call for the acceleration of detailed geologic mapping in support of energy and critical mineral resources supported by data preservation and availability. The geologic mapping supported by STATEM...
