Opportunity Summary:
The FWSR1 PICCC FY2014 funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00194) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), Pacific Region, to support the work of the Pacific Islands Climate Change Cooperative (PICCC). The program is focused on building practical, decision-relevant science and information to help resource managers and partners in the Pacific Islands respond to climate change impacts. The core emphasis for this solicitation is on two major climate-related challenges considered especially urgent for Pacific Island ecosystems and communities: (1) the effects of sea level rise, and (2) changes in precipitation patterns and extremes, including conditions such as drought and flooding. Projects are expected to generate information that can guide conservation planning and on-the-ground management in the region, aligning with PICCC's role as a collaborative science and management network.
The opportunity is categorized under Environment and Natural Resources and uses a grant funding instrument. It is listed under CFDA 15.669, Cooperative Landscape Conservation. For Fiscal Year 2014, the program anticipated making about three awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $250,000. Individual awards could be as large as $150,000, and the stated minimum award amount is $0 (meaning smaller awards could be made depending on the proposal set and available funds). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which typically lowers barriers for applicants and allows organizations to propose projects without needing to secure non-federal match funds.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the competition is open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any additional clarifications that may have been included in the full announcement. In practice, opportunities like this often attract proposals from universities, nonprofit conservation organizations, tribal and local government entities, and other partners engaged in climate adaptation, ecological monitoring, modeling, vulnerability assessments, and applied management research in island contexts. The solicitation is specifically framed around producing "science and information," which commonly includes activities such as data collection and synthesis, decision-support tools, scenario planning, vulnerability and risk assessments, hydrologic or coastal inundation modeling, identification of priority conservation actions, and other applied products that directly inform management choices related to sea level rise and precipitation-driven impacts.
Key administrative dates show the announcement was posted on June 7, 2013, with an application deadline of July 3, 2013, and it was later archived on August 2, 2013. Applicants seeking the full announcement and related details were directed to an additional information link hosted by the Hawaii Conservation Alliance site: http://hawaiiconservation.org/activities/pacificislandclimatechangecooperative/fundingopportunities. For assistance accessing the announcement or for programmatic questions, the listed point of contact was Jeff Burgett, PICCC Science Manager, reachable by phone at 808-687-6175 ext. 1002 or by email at JeffBurgett@fws.gov.
Overall, this grant opportunity was designed to strengthen climate adaptation capacity in the Pacific Islands by funding a small number of targeted projects that address pressing coastal and freshwater-related climate stressors. By concentrating on sea level rise and precipitation extremes, the solicitation signals an interest in work that helps managers anticipate and respond to shoreline change, inundation, saltwater intrusion, habitat loss, changing water availability, wildfire risk associated with drought, flood impacts, and other linked ecological and infrastructure challenges that are particularly acute in island environments.
