Opportunity Summary:
The Commission the Ash Meadows Fish Conservation Facility opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00363) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary funding action intended to support work at the Ash Meadows Fish Conservation Facility, specifically focused on setting up and commissioning the facility's propagation room. The core purpose is cooperative, hands-on implementation: the recipient would work closely with the agency to get the propagation room operational so it can be used for fish conservation and recovery activities tied to the Ash Meadows ecosystem. The opportunity falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.657, Endangered Species Conservation - Recovery Implementation Funds, indicating the work is aligned with federally supported endangered species recovery efforts.
The planned award instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means the Fish and Wildlife Service expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The posting indicates a single expected award with a total estimated funding amount of $35,000. The award amount is fixed in practice for this action: the ceiling is $35,000 and the floor is also $35,000, meaning the agency anticipated one award at that exact amount. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, so the recipient would not be required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award.
Although the eligibility field lists applicants as unrestricted, the notice is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to make a single-source award, and it clearly states that no competition is expected and that prospective applicants should not apply. In other words, despite the general eligibility language, this posting functions as a public notice that the agency intends to direct the cooperative agreement to a specific partner rather than running an open competition. The opportunity was posted on August 6, 2012 (created August 3, 2012), with an original and current closing date of August 15, 2012, and it was archived on August 31, 2012.
