Opportunity Summary:
The FY12 Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force Regional Panels opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00335) was a discretionary grant program run by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance. The core purpose of the funding was to support the work of Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) Task Force Regional Panels, which were established to help carry out Section 1203 of the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990 (NANPCA). In practical terms, this kind of support is aimed at keeping regional coordination and implementation efforts moving forward so that prevention, early detection, and management of nonindigenous aquatic nuisance species can be addressed consistently across states and regions.
The announcement anticipated making about five awards, with an estimated total program funding level of $250,000. Individual awards could be as high as $50,000, and the listed award floor was $0, meaning proposals could request smaller amounts depending on the scope of work. The funding instrument was a grant, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations, including both nonprofits with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education) and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (also excluding institutions of higher education). The activity category was Natural Resources, which aligns with the focus on protecting aquatic ecosystems and managing invasive or otherwise harmful nonnative species that can disrupt habitats, fisheries, water infrastructure, and local economies.
