Opportunity Summary:

The Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00347) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement under the federal Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance program (CFDA 15.608). The purpose is tied to environmental work and supports the kind of applied research, technical assistance, and education activities that the Service carries out in partnership with outside institutions. In this case, the award is being made through the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network, which is a established partnership framework used by federal agencies and universities and other partners to collaborate on natural resource priorities.

This posting is not a competitive grant solicitation and is not a request for applications. It is explicitly labeled as a Notice of Intent to Award to a single source, meaning FWS has already identified the intended recipient and does not plan to open the funding to competing proposals. The intended awardee is North Carolina State University, and the agency states that the decision not to compete the award is based on applicable Departmental policy (referenced as 505 DM 2.14,B.(2)) and is within the agency's discretion. In practical terms, this type of notice is mainly provided for transparency and public recordkeeping, rather than to invite submissions from other applicants.

The opportunity anticipates one award with a total estimated funding amount of $50,000, and both the award floor and ceiling are listed as $50,000, indicating a fixed award size for this action. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The posting date and creation date are September 3, 2013, with an original and current closing date of September 4, 2013, which is consistent with a single-source notice where the timeline is short because proposals are not being solicited from the public.

Although the eligibility field is marked as "unrestricted" in the standard grants.gov categorization, the narrative eligibility information clarifies that the opportunity is not open for applications and will not be competed. Anyone looking for additional official details is directed to the grants.gov listing, and questions about access to the announcement materials are routed to the listed point of contact: Janice Mcneill, Contract Specialist, at 404-679-4056 or janicemcneill@fws.gov.
