Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "CA LCC 2010 Projects with PRBO Conservation Science" (Funding Opportunity Number CALCC 1005) is a discretionary U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service notice stating the agency's intent to make a single cooperative agreement award to PRBO Conservation Science. It sits within the environment and natural resources category and is tied to the California Landscape Conservation Cooperative (CA LCC), which is described as a collaborative, landscape-scale planning and coordination effort that brings science and management together to respond to conservation challenges driven by climate change.
At its core, the proposed award is meant to advance the goals of both the Fish and Wildlife Service and the CA LCC by supplying scientific and technical support for large-scale conservation planning focused on bird species that are sensitive to climate impacts. The work to be carried out by PRBO Conservation Science includes conducting vulnerability assessments for four tidal marsh bird species, along with designing a monitoring program intended to detect and track the effects of climate change on tidal marsh bird populations and their abundance over time. In practical terms, this frames the project as both an assessment effort (figuring out which species are most at risk and why) and an applied monitoring design effort (creating a structured way to measure changes and attribute them to climate-related drivers).
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $277,301, and both the award ceiling and award floor are also set at $277,301, indicating a single, fixed-size award rather than a range. The expected number of awards is one. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically implies a closer working relationship between the federal agency and the recipient than a standard grant, often including substantial involvement by the agency in project oversight, coordination, or technical direction. The opportunity also notes that cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash or in-kind, depending on the agreement terms) toward the overall project.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). Even though that category is broad, the notice is explicitly a Notice of Intent to award to PRBO Conservation Science, which signals that the agency is not running an open competition for multiple applicants under this posting, but instead documenting and processing an intended award to a named organization. The CFDA number provided is 15.650, identified as "Research Grants (Generic)."
The timeline shows the opportunity was posted and created on August 9, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 23, 2010, and an archive date of September 22, 2010. For access issues, the posting provides a point of contact: Dwight (Ike) Luginbill, Grants/Agreements Assistant at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at 209-946-6400 x340. The announcement also includes specific navigation notes for retrieving the full text and application materials due to a non-functioning "Full Announcement" button, directing users instead to the "Application" area and subsequent download links for instructions and required forms.
