Opportunity Summary:
The BIISC ED RR Project Support grant (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00304) is a discretionary award offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.657, Endangered Species Conservation - Recovery Implementation Funds. Its purpose is to support the Big Island Invasive Species Committee (BIISC) in protecting native ecosystems on the island of Hawaii by strengthening early detection and rapid response work related to invasive species that can harm habitats and threaten native wildlife.
The funded work centers on three main activities. First, BIISC is expected to conduct field surveys aimed at finding invasive organisms as early as possible, including invasive plants, vertebrates, and invertebrates. Second, when target species are detected, BIISC will organize and facilitate rapid response efforts, coordinating those actions with other partner organizations so that infestations or populations can be contained or removed quickly before they spread. Third, the project includes outreach and public engagement designed to raise awareness and encourage residents and partners to report sightings of targeted invasive species, increasing the chances that new invasions are detected early.
This opportunity is structured as a grant with an anticipated single award. The estimated total funding is $40,000, with an award ceiling of $40,000 and no stated minimum (award floor of $0). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. The announcement was posted and created on August 7, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 21, 2013. Additional details were made available through Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for access issues or questions was Paulette Reyes at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (808-792-9447, PauletteReyes@fws.gov).
