Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Eradication of invasive species in the Muddy River" (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00258), was issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as an environmental cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance. The project focus is straightforward: carry out eradication of exotic (invasive) species in the Muddy River and its connected waters. The work is expected to involve chemical treatments and any other appropriate eradication methods, along with the practical groundwork that comes with that kind of field effort, such as project planning, obtaining necessary permits, and completing required clearances.
The funding amount for the action was set at a total of $465,926, and both the award ceiling and award floor were listed at the same figure, indicating a single, fixed-size award rather than a range of potential award amounts. Only one award was expected. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Although the eligibility field is labeled as "unrestricted" in the basic listing, the announcement makes clear that this was not an open, competitive funding opportunity. It was published as a Notice of Intent to Award on a single-source basis, with explicit statements that no competition was expected and that applicants should not apply. In other words, it functioned as a public notice that the agency intended to make a direct award to a specific recipient rather than solicit and evaluate proposals from multiple applicants.
Key dates show how brief the administrative window was: the opportunity was posted and created on June 23, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 30, 2014, and an archive date of July 7, 2014. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement through Grants.gov was directed to contact Brenda Krone at the Fish and Wildlife Service (775-861-6314, brendakrone@fws.gov).
