Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Great Lake Commission" (Funding Opportunity Number FWS 2011 94100 GLC), was issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as a continuation, single-source award rather than a competitive funding announcement. The purpose is to provide continued support for the Great Lakes Panel on Aquatic Nuisance Species, a long-running effort tied to Section 1203 of the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990 (NANPCA). The central justification is continuity: the Great Lakes Commission has received all prior awards supporting this panel for roughly 20 years, and the agency states that continuing with this same entity is considered essential to maintaining effective implementation of the statutory requirements and ongoing program work.
The listing makes clear that this is not a request for applications. In other words, outside organizations are not being invited to apply because the agency has already determined that competition would be inappropriate under its internal policy. The determination not to compete is explicitly tied to Department policy (cited as 505 DM 2.14, B), which allows a noncompetitive continuation when the activity being funded must continue for satisfactory completion of work already underway, and when competing the award would significantly disrupt continuity or completion. The notice indicates that further justification is available in the full announcement under a "Notice of Intent" justification.
Financially, the opportunity was structured as a grant with a total estimated funding amount of $50,000. The award floor and ceiling are both $50,000, which effectively signals that the agency anticipated issuing one award in that exact amount. The expected number of awards is one, consistent with the single-source continuation approach. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement indicated, so the recipient was not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on July 21, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 27, 2011, and an archive date of August 26, 2011. The short window aligns with the fact that the action was not competitive and was intended to formalize a continuation award rather than solicit and evaluate multiple applications. The CFDA listing associated with the funding is 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance, and the funding activity category is listed under Employment, Labor and Training, though the described programmatic focus is specifically on aquatic nuisance species coordination and panel support within the Great Lakes context.
For questions or difficulties accessing the full announcement, the posting directs inquiries to Susan Mangin, Program Officer, at 703-358-2466, and references the Fish and Wildlife Service website (https://fws.gov).
