Opportunity Information: Apply for F12AS00248
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service plans to award a single source Cooperative Agreement to Kawerak Inc., specifically the Eskimo Walrus Commission (EWC), to foster ongoing collaboration for the conservation and co-management of Pacific walrus. This agreement, rooted in Section 119 of the Marine Mammal Protection Act, is not open for proposals; the award will be issued 15 days after this announcement.
The main goals of the agreement include:
1. Conserving the Pacific walrus in Alaska. 2. Promoting co-management practices involving subsistence users through the Commission. 3. Equipping the Commission with vital information on walrus population trends for effective management. 4. Providing the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service with data necessary for monitoring walrus populations.
The choice for a single source agreement is justified by the EWC's strategic location in Nome, Alaska, which is close to significant walrus hunting communities, facilitating easier and less costly travel for related stakeholders. Legislative history from 1997 underscores Congress’s intent for a sustained co-management relationship with the EWC, which has been in place since 1997. The EWC plays a crucial role in representing the interests of Alaska Native communities and has the established technical expertise necessary for this task.
The EWC is recognized as the only Alaska Native Organization specifically authorized to represent the interests of various coastal walrus hunting communities in Alaska. This long-term partnership aims to ensure effective conservation and management of walrus populations while supporting the subsistence needs of local communities.Apply for F12AS00248
