Opportunity Summary:
The Asia Regional Sustainable Landscapes Program is a discretionary funding opportunity issued by USAID in Bangkok, Thailand, focused on environmental activities across the Asia region. It is offered under Funding Opportunity Number USAID RDMA 486 10 035 RFA and will be implemented through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the recipient is expected to work closely with USAID during implementation rather than operating with minimal federal involvement. The program is listed under CFDA 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas), signaling that it supports overseas assistance objectives and is managed within USAID's foreign assistance framework.
This notice is labeled Amendment 1, and the specific purpose of the amendment is administrative and clarifying rather than a change to the core program itself: it provides answers to questions that USAID received from interested applicants under the original Request for Applications (RFA). In other words, the amendment functions like an official Q-and-A that helps applicants interpret requirements, understand expectations, or resolve ambiguities before submitting an application.
USAID anticipates making one award under this opportunity. The maximum potential funding amount (award ceiling) is $20,000,000, and the award floor is listed as $0, which generally indicates there is no stated minimum award amount in the announcement data. Cost sharing or matching is not required, meaning applicants are not obligated to contribute their own funds or third-party resources as a condition of eligibility or competitiveness, unless the full text of the announcement states otherwise. Eligibility is described as unrestricted, open to any type of entity, subject to any additional limits or clarifications that might appear in the detailed eligibility section of the full announcement.
Key timing information shows the opportunity was posted on September 3, 2010, with an original and current closing date of October 14, 2010 at 4:00 PM Bangkok time, suggesting the amendment did not change the deadline. For applicants who cannot access the full announcement electronically, USAID provided a point of contact: Praveena ViraSingh, Procurement Specialist, reachable by phone at 6622573000, with additional reference to an assistance/acquisition specialist role in the contact line.
