Opportunity Summary:
The Center of Collaborative Policy grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CALCC 1001) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) under CFDA 15.650 (Research Grants - Generic). It is categorized under environmental funding and is designed to support the establishment of the California Landscape Conservation Cooperative (California LCC) within the FWS Region 8 area. The central idea behind the project is to build a large-scale, science-driven partnership that helps natural resource managers make better decisions using the most current information available on climate change and other stressors affecting landscapes, habitats, and wildlife.
This opportunity focuses on creating and launching an LCC, which is described as a management-science cooperative spanning a broad geographic area and built around real collaboration between resource managers and scientists. The intent is not simply to fund a single research study, but to set up an ongoing cooperative structure that can synthesize and deliver actionable science to inform conservation and resource management activities. In practice, that means coordinating agencies and experts, organizing shared priorities, and ensuring that climate and other emerging pressures are consistently accounted for in planning and on-the-ground decisions across the region.
The notice is explicitly a Notice of Intent to make an award to California State University, Sacramento, meaning it is not being positioned as an open competitive opportunity for the general public. The listing indicates one expected award. Although the posting includes general grants.gov style fields like "Eligible Applicants: Others (see text field...)," the eligibility clarification provided is direct: the award is intended for California State University, Sacramento.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of 229,072, with an award ceiling and floor both set at 229,072, which suggests a single, fixed-size award. The narrative description also notes an initial projected funding amount of 180,352.23 alongside cost sharing of 11,280.00. Even though the standard field for matching requirements says "No," the description makes clear that some level of cost sharing is anticipated as part of the project budget structure. The funding source is identified as FWS Region 8 California LCC.
The period of performance is anticipated to run from the date of the last signature through May 1, 2015, indicating a multi-year effort aimed at establishing the cooperative and getting it functioning rather than a short-term, one-off deliverable. Key timeline details in the record show the opportunity was posted June 22, 2010, with an original and current closing date of July 7, 2010, and an archive date of August 6, 2010, meaning this is an older, archived federal funding notice.

The directions explain how to navigate through the "Application" button and then use the download links under "Instructions and Application" to retrieve the complete announcement and the required application package/forms.
