Opportunity Summary:
The FWS Mountain Prairie Region Tribal Conservation Priority Support opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F15AS00111) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) discretionary funding announcement for a cooperative agreement focused on strengthening Tribal conservation coordination, planning, and participation across the Mountain Prairie Region. The core purpose is to support the planning and development work behind key Tribal conservation events and related activities, with an emphasis on building capacity, improving communication, and helping Tribes engage effectively in fish and wildlife conservation efforts that intersect with federal programs and priorities.
The work described centers on hands-on logistical and programmatic support for a set of identified Tribal conservation events. Examples listed in the notice include the Eagle Summit, a Tribal Roundtable, workshops connected to a TWG (Tribal Wildlife Grant) and grant-writing support, presentations, and Tribal youth conservation activities. In practice, that means the recipient would help coordinate event planning details, assist in shaping agendas and content where appropriate, and ensure that events and activities can be carried out smoothly and in a way that meets FWS needs and timelines.
The notice also outlines the types of deliverables or work products expected. These include using the Native American Fish and Wildlife Society (NAFWS) distribution and membership lists to advertise events and increase participation, assisting with the development of a Tribal Advisory Board, and handling event-related hosting needs such as supplies. The agreement may also cover participant support items requested by the Service, including meals and flat-rate travel stipends for Tribal members. Overall, the deliverables lean heavily toward outreach, convening, coordination, and practical support that lowers participation barriers and helps turn conservation priorities into well-organized, well-attended activities.
This announcement is specifically a Notice of Intent to make a single-source award to the Native American Fish and Wildlife Society, citing Department of the Interior policy 505 DM 2.14 B(4) related to unique qualifications. That means it is not a typical open competitive grant solicitation; instead, it signals the agency’s intent to directly fund a particular organization based on its specialized role, relationships, or capabilities relevant to Tribal fish and wildlife conservation coordination.
Funding is listed at an estimated total of $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $20,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA program number associated with the opportunity is 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance. The posting date is February 20, 2015, with an original and current closing date of February 27, 2015, and an archive date of March 20, 2015.
