Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Coordination of Science and Research" (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00231) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service funding action intended to support ongoing science coordination work carried out through the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA). It falls under the Service's CFDA program authority 15.670, described as Adaptive Science, and it is categorized within Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The core purpose is to provide financial assistance to continue services that support AFWA's Science Coordination Team, which suggests the funding is aimed at maintaining and advancing coordinated scientific efforts that help inform fish and wildlife management decisions.

This notice is not a competitive funding announcement. It is explicitly described as a notice of intent to make a single-source award, meaning the agency has already identified AFWA as the recipient and is not soliciting applications from other organizations. Because of this, there is no full program announcement associated with the posting and it should not be treated as an open call for proposals. While the posting lists eligible applicants generally as nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), the single-source nature of the action indicates that the practical intended awardee is AFWA for this specific agreement.

The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared to a standard grant. The opportunity anticipates one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $255,760. Both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $255,760, indicating the planned award amount is fixed rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a mandatory non-federal match as a condition of the award.

Key dates reflect the administrative posting timeline rather than a competitive application window. The opportunity was posted and created on July 8, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 12, 2013, and an archive date of August 9, 2013. For additional details, the posting references Grants.gov as the source link. The listed contact for access issues or questions is Sonja Scott, Administrative Officer, reachable at 703-358-1720 or via email at SonjaScott@fws.gov.
