Cooperative Agreement, North Carolina State University | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity is a discretionary cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service, identified as Funding Opportunity Number F16AS00407 and titled "Cooperative Agreement, North Carolina State University." It falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category and is associated with CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 15.678. The government posted it on August 15, 2016, with an original closing date of August 19, 2016, indicating a very short administrative window that aligns with the nature of the notice.

The key point is that this is not a competitive grant announcement. It is a notice of intent to make a single-source award, and there is no full funding announcement attached. In practical terms, that means the Fish and Wildlife Service had already identified the intended recipient and was publishing the notice largely for transparency and public record rather than inviting applications from multiple organizations. Although the eligibility field is listed as "Unrestricted," the text makes clear that the intended awardee is North Carolina State University, so other applicants would not realistically have an opportunity to compete for this funding under this notice.

The purpose of the cooperative agreement is to support the South Atlantic Landscape Conservation Cooperative (South Atlantic LCC). The work is described in terms of extension and research roles, carried out by working with cooperative members. That implies the funded activities are meant to help translate science into practice (extension) and to generate or synthesize scientific information (research) in collaboration with the broader LCC partnership network. Landscape Conservation Cooperatives have historically functioned as multi-partner collaborations that coordinate conservation planning and science across jurisdictions, so the emphasis on working with cooperative members suggests a focus on coordination, partnership support, shared research priorities, and applied outcomes that serve multiple agencies and stakeholders in the South Atlantic region.

In terms of funding scope, the notice lists an award ceiling of $100,000 and anticipates a single award. As a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, the instrument type typically signals that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work, such as participating in planning, providing technical direction, or collaborating on deliverables. The notice itself is brief and does not provide detailed deliverables, performance measures, or a work plan, which is consistent with a single-source intent notice where the detailed project scope is usually handled directly between the agency and the named recipient during award development.

Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a targeted federal award to North Carolina State University to support research and extension functions for the South Atlantic LCC through collaborative work with partner organizations, with up to $100,000 available and one expected recipient, announced as a single-source intent rather than an open, competitive solicitation.
