Opportunity Summary:
The Conservative Landscape Conservation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FWS R4 12 010) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) discretionary funding action issued as a notice of intent to award, meaning there is no full public announcement, competition package, or standard application process associated with it. The agency states up front that it intends to make an award specifically to Florida State University, and that the funding will be provided through the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) program. CESUs are established partnerships designed to connect federal agencies with universities and other partners to deliver applied research, technical assistance, and educational support for natural resource and conservation priorities.
The instrument type for this action is a cooperative agreement, which typically signals that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the opportunity is structured as a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The total estimated funding is $56,686, and both the award ceiling and award floor are set at $56,686, indicating a fixed, predetermined award amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
Key dates show this was posted and created on September 3, 2012, with an original and current closing date of September 7, 2012, and an archive date of October 7, 2012. Although the listing includes general categories of eligible applicants (county governments, city or township governments, states, and eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofits), the notice language makes clear the intent is to award to Florida State University through the CESU mechanism, so the eligibility list should be read as a standard template element rather than an invitation for new proposals.
