Opportunity Summary:
The "140th American Fisheries Society" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FWS R9 DO 140 AFS 2010) was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) to support participation in, or activities tied to, the 140th annual American Fisheries Society-related conference/workshop context. It falls under CFDA 15.649, Service Training and Technical Assistance (Generic Training), and is framed around education, environmental work, and natural resources. The core purpose described is that the FWS Office of the Director provides support when partners request assistance for selected annual conferences and workshops, and also uses this mechanism to pay annual dues to scientific societies or other professional and educational organizations connected to natural resource work.
This opportunity was explicitly designated as single source under departmental policy, meaning the agency had already determined that only one specific applicant or recipient was expected and that no competition was anticipated. As a result, while it appeared as a public grant listing, it was not structured like an open, broadly competitive program where multiple applicants submit proposals for selection. The announcement indicates an expectation of one award total.
The total estimated funding amount was $10,000, with an award ceiling of $10,000 and an award floor of $10,000, effectively signaling that the single anticipated award was intended to be exactly that amount. Cost sharing or matching was required, so the recipient was expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash or allowable in-kind support, depending on the award terms) to meet the match requirement established for the grant.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations holding IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The funding instrument type was a grant, and the awarding agency was the Fish and Wildlife Service. Key dates show the notice was posted on January 27, 2010, with an extremely short application window closing on January 29, 2010, and the opportunity archived on February 28, 2010, which is consistent with a single-source action where the intended recipient is already known and the posting is largely procedural.
For applicants or stakeholders needing access to the full announcement, an additional information link was provided in the listing, and the contact person named for assistance was Colleen Holland, Budget Analyst.
