Opportunity Summary:
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), through its Western Ecological Research Center, announced a small, targeted funding opportunity under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program, specifically the Californian CESU. The project focus is on identifying and understanding the factors that influence whether reintroduction efforts succeed for the endangered mountain yellow-legged frog. The award is intended to support science and technology research and development work that can improve conservation outcomes for this species by clarifying what conditions, methods, or environmental pressures most strongly affect reintroduction success.
This opportunity is listed as a discretionary award and will be issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the USGS is expected to have substantial involvement in the funded work compared with a standard grant. Only one award was anticipated. The estimated total funding amount for the project is $14,500. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The notice did not specify a formal award ceiling or floor (both are shown as 0), which typically indicates that applicants should rely on the stated estimated total funding level and the specific scope described in the full announcement.
Eligibility is limited to organizations that are already partners within the Californian CESU network. CESUs are formal partnerships designed to connect federal agencies with universities, tribes, nonprofits, and other research organizations to provide research, technical assistance, and education aligned with public land and resource management needs. In practical terms, this means the competition is restricted: only a participating Californian CESU partner can apply, and the project is structured to leverage that established partnership framework.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number G13AS00048 and the CFDA number 15.808 (U.S. Geological Survey Research and Data Collection). The opportunity was posted on May 20, 2013, with an original and current closing date of May 30, 2013, indicating a short application window. The archive date is August 20, 2013, which generally means the opportunity is no longer active after that point and is kept for recordkeeping and reference.
For applicants or interested parties seeking the complete announcement and requirements, the notice points to Grants.gov as the additional information source. The designated contact for access issues or questions is Faith Graves at USGS (phone 703-648-7356, email fgraves@usgs.gov).
