Opportunity Summary:
The California Landscape Conservation Cooperative (CA LCC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00224) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary funding action focused on natural resources work that supports landscape-scale conservation in California. The CA LCC is described as a management-science partnership intended to bring together integrated science, natural resource management, and conservation planning to help ecosystems cope with climate change and other environmental stressors. In practice, the purpose is to produce or support applied scientific work that resource managers can use to make coordinated decisions across jurisdictions and ecosystems, rather than treating sites or species in isolation.
This announcement is not a competitive grant solicitation and does not include an application process. It is a Notice of Intent to make a single-source cooperative agreement award to PRBO Conservation Science (spelled "PRBO Conservatoin Science" in the notice). The agency states the rationale for a single-source award is the unique qualifications of PRBO staff, specifically their technical expertise needed to carry out the work under the CA LCC. Because the award is single-source, the posted dates and closing date function more as administrative milestones than as an open window for proposals; the notice explicitly repeats that there is no application process and the award is directed to PRBO.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project, such as coordination, technical input, shared planning, or collaboration in producing deliverables. The estimated total funding and the award ceiling are both listed as $93,880 (with an award floor of $0), and the notice anticipates one award at that level. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA number provided is 15.669, Cooperative Landscape Conservation, which aligns with the Landscape Conservation Cooperative framework used to connect science and management across large geographic areas.
Eligibility information is included in the record, listing "Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education," but given the single-source nature of the award, this eligibility field is largely informational rather than an invitation for other entities to apply. The opportunity was posted on June 18, 2012, with a creation date of June 27, 2012, and an original/current closing date of June 22, 2012. An additional information link is provided via Grants.gov.
For questions or for help accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Rita Howard at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable at 916-278-9443 or via email at RitaHoward@fws.gov.
