Opportunity Summary:
The Aramburu Island Shoreline Restoration Project (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00109) was a discretionary environmental funding opportunity administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The purpose of the project was to enhance and restore the shoreline along the eastern portion of Aramburu Island, focusing on actions that would improve shoreline condition and support broader habitat and natural resource restoration goals. The opportunity falls under CFDA 15.658, Natural Resource Damage Assessment, Restoration and Implementation, which generally supports efforts to restore resources impacted by environmental damage and to carry out restoration implementation activities.
Funding was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the agency expected to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing funds, such as participating in planning, coordination, oversight, or technical collaboration. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with total funding set at $605,248. Notably, the award ceiling and award floor were both $605,248, indicating a fixed award amount rather than a range. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not have been required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Although the listing showed eligibility as "unrestricted" in a general sense, the key eligibility detail was that this announcement was a Notice of Intent to Award on a single-source basis. In other words, it was not a competitive grant solicitation. The announcement explicitly stated that no competition was expected and instructed interested parties not to apply. This type of notice is typically used when an agency has already identified a specific organization for the work due to unique qualifications, continuity of ongoing efforts, location-specific responsibilities, or other justifications allowed under federal assistance rules.
The opportunity was posted and created on March 20, 2012, with an original and current closing date of March 31, 2012, and it was archived on April 2, 2012. Anyone needing access to the full announcement at the time, or experiencing issues retrieving it electronically, was directed to contact Susan Lackey, Administrative Officer at the Fish and Wildlife Service, at 775-861-6326 or via email at SueLackey@fws.gov.
