Opportunity Summary:
The CALCC 2010 Project with the Bay Area Open Space Council (Funding Opportunity Number CALCC 1003) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Notice of Intent to make a single cooperative agreement award to the Bay Area Open Space Council. The work sits under the California Landscape Conservation Cooperative (CA LCC), a partnership focused on landscape-scale planning and coordination across scientists and resource managers to respond to conservation challenges driven by climate change. In practical terms, the CA LCC role is to provide scientific and technical support for large-scale conservation using an adaptive management approach, with emphasis on science-based biological planning, conservation design, research, inventory, and monitoring.
The specific project described is the completion of the San Francisco Bay Area Upland Habitats Goals project. The opportunity is not framed as an open competition in the usual sense; instead, the agency indicates it intends to fund the Bay Area Open Space Council because the organization is considered uniquely qualified based on its extensive experience leading and advancing this particular effort. The announcement characterizes the award as a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project, such as collaboration on deliverables, technical input, and coordination to ensure the work supports broader landscape conservation objectives.
In terms of funding and basic parameters, the opportunity was posted on August 9, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 23, 2010, and an archive date of September 22, 2010. The estimated total funding is $98,500, and both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $98,500, signaling an expectation of one award at a fixed amount (Expected Awards: 1). A cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated as "Yes," meaning the recipient would be expected to contribute non-federal resources or documented match consistent with the program rules for the cooperative agreement. The activity category is Environment and Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing provided is 15.650 (Research Grants, Generic).
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) IRS status (excluding institutions of higher education). However, because this is explicitly a Notice of Intent to award to the Bay Area Open Space Council, eligibility language functions more as a classification of the recipient type than a broad invitation for multiple applicants. The awarding agency is the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The posting also includes guidance for accessing the full announcement and application materials, noting a technical issue with the "Full Announcement" button. Instead, users are directed to click the "Application" button, then use the "download" link under "Instructions and Application," and finally select "Download Application Instructions" for the full announcement and "Download Application Package" for any required forms.
For help obtaining the announcement or troubleshooting access, the listed contact is Dwight (Ike) Luginbill, Grants/Agreements Assistant, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at 209-946-6400 x340.
