Opportunity Summary:

The Habitat Conservation for Greater Sage Grouse funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F16AS00138) is a discretionary grant announced by the U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (DOI-FWS). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as coordinating activities, providing technical input, or collaborating on implementation and oversight. The program is categorized under the Environment funding activity area and is listed under CFDA 15.608.

This opportunity is structured as a single-source award, meaning the Service intends to fund only one specific recipient rather than running a competitive process among multiple applicants. The intended recipient is the Nevada Department of Wildlife, and eligibility is limited to state governments, aligning with the single-source approach described. The stated purpose is joint habitat conservation efforts designed to benefit the greater sage-grouse, a species closely tied to sagebrush ecosystems and frequently the focus of multi-agency habitat conservation planning.

The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $46,152, and the agency anticipates making one award in total. The notice was created and posted on March 21, 2016, with an original and current closing date of March 29, 2016, indicating a short window consistent with an announcement made to document and finalize a directed, non-competitive award.
