Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Aquatic Invasive Species" (Funding Opportunity Number: FWS 2010 FARC), is a continuation award administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance. The purpose is narrowly focused: to provide continued support for the Mid Atlantic Regional Panel, which plays a role in implementing Section 1203 of the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990. The notice makes it clear that maintaining continuity through the same implementing partner is viewed as essential to keeping this work effective and uninterrupted.
A key point is that this is a single-source, non-competitive award. It is not a solicitation and not an open request for applications. The Maryland Department of Natural Resources is identified as the recipient of all prior awards supporting the Mid Atlantic Regional Panel over the previous two years, and the agency states that continued funding through this same entity is considered integral to successful ongoing implementation of the underlying federal mandate. The decision not to compete the award is justified under Department of the Interior policy for continuation actions (referencing 505 DM 2.14), specifically the rationale that competing the work would likely have a significant adverse effect on continuity or completion of an activity already being funded.
The funding parameters are straightforward and fixed. The opportunity anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $50,000. The award floor and award ceiling are both $50,000, meaning the award amount is effectively predetermined at $50,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The eligible applicant category is listed as state governments, but because the award is single-source and non-competitive, this eligibility statement does not function as an invitation for other states or entities to apply.
Timing information indicates this was posted on July 18, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 22, 2011, and an archive date of August 21, 2011. In practice, those dates function more as public notice milestones than as a competitive application window, since the announcement explicitly states it is not a request for applications. For additional detail on the justification for limiting the award to a single recipient, the announcement directs readers to the Notice of Intent/Justification available through the "Full Announcement" link referenced in the posting. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed contact is Susan Mangin via the Fish and Wildlife Service website (www.fws.gov).
