Opportunity Summary:
The CVJV Implementation Plan Communications grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F15AS00069) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary funding action offered through a cooperative agreement under the Environment funding activity category. The purpose of the project is to support the Central Valley Joint Venture (CVJV) Communications program, with a specific focus on communications-related work tied to development of the CVJV 2016 Implementation Plan. In practical terms, the award is meant to help ensure that planning efforts for the 2016 Implementation Plan are effectively communicated, supported by appropriate outreach materials and coordination, and that communications capacity is in place to assist the Joint Venture as the plan is developed.
This notice is explicitly presented as a Notice of Intent to Make an Award, indicating that the agency planned to fund a specific organization rather than run an open, competitive process. The announcement states that no competition is expected and includes the instruction "Do not respond," which signals that applications were not being solicited from the general public. The intended recipient named in the notice is the California Waterfowl Association.
The total anticipated funding for the award is $69,898, and both the award floor and award ceiling are listed as $69,898, meaning the funding amount was fixed at that level rather than a range. One award was expected. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to provide non-federal match as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The opportunity is associated with CFDA 15.637, Migratory Bird Joint Ventures, which aligns with CVJV's broader mission of collaborative habitat and conservation planning for migratory birds in California's Central Valley.
Key dates show the posting date and creation date as January 12, 2015, with an original and current closing date of January 23, 2015, and an archive date of January 24, 2015. Because the notice was not competitive and instructed prospective parties not to respond, these dates function more as administrative milestones for the public posting rather than a standard application window.
