Opportunity Summary:
The Austin Woods Unit grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00054) is a discretionary, cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Natural Resources funding activity category and tied to the Coastal Program (CFDA 15.630). Its central purpose is straightforward: to complete a land acquisition. The agreement is structured so that grant funds are transferred to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation to carry out and finalize the land acquisition work and to ensure the objectives laid out in the grant agreement are fully completed.
This funding opportunity was designed as a single-award action, with one expected award totaling $80,000. The financial parameters are fixed, with an award floor of $80,000 and an award ceiling of $80,000, meaning the anticipated award amount is set at $80,000 rather than offered as a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed, so applicants would not be required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations recognized as 501(c)(3) entities by the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. Although the listing specifies this general eligibility category, the description indicates the objective is specifically to move funds to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation for completion of the acquisition objectives, which suggests the award is intended for that organization to execute the transaction and associated responsibilities contemplated in the agreement.
Timing for this opportunity was very short. The notice was posted and created on February 1, 2012, with an original and current closing date of February 6, 2012. The opportunity was later archived on March 27, 2012. The full announcement and related materials were available through Grants.gov, referenced via the additional information link provided in the notice.
For questions or help accessing the full announcement, the listed contact is Bernard Lujan at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at 505-248-6805 or by email at bernardlujan@fws.gov.
