Opportunity Summary:
The California Landscape Conservation Cooperative (CA LCC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00088) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) discretionary funding notice focused on science, technology, and other research and development activities that support cooperative landscape conservation. The CA LCC is described as working in partnership with agencies and organizations to provide scientific information to resource managers, meaning the central purpose is to develop or deliver applied science that helps decision-makers manage habitats, species, and broader landscapes more effectively. The program is tied to the Cooperative Landscape Conservation CFDA listing (15.669), which generally signals a focus on collaborative, cross-boundary conservation planning and the use of science to inform management actions.
This posting is not a typical open competitive solicitation. Instead, it functions as a notice of intent to make a single-source cooperative agreement under departmental policy (cited as 505 DM 2.14). In practical terms, that means there is no application process, no open deadline for submissions, and no expectation that multiple applicants will compete for the award. Both the original and current closing date fields explicitly state that an application process does not exist for this award, reinforcing that the agency already anticipates issuing one cooperative agreement to a specific recipient rather than soliciting proposals from the general public.
The opportunity anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $70,340, which also serves as the award ceiling. The award floor is listed as $0, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that the USFWS expects to have substantial involvement in the project’s execution compared with a standard grant, often through coordination, technical input, or joint decision-making during the period of performance.
Eligibility is listed as "Individuals" in the posting. However, because the notice is for a single-source agreement with no application process, the eligibility field is less relevant for would-be applicants and more a reflection of how the opportunity was categorized in the listing. The opportunity was posted and created on February 13, 2014, and it was archived on February 18, 2014, consistent with a short-lived notice intended primarily to document the agency’s intent rather than invite submissions.
