Opportunity Summary:
The Hempstead Harbor Cove Wetland Restoration opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00441) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service notice of intent to make a single-source award, not a competitive grant solicitation. In practical terms, this means there is no full application package to respond to and no open call for proposals. The agency states up front that it is not requesting applications, and the decision to avoid competition is being made under Departmental Manual policy (505 DM 2.14(B)(4)), which the government describes as entirely within its discretion.
The planned award is a Cooperative Agreement under CFDA 15.658, Natural Resource Damage Assessment, Restoration and Implementation, and it is categorized under Natural Resources. The intended recipient is the Town of North Hempstead. The work to be funded focuses on on-the-ground wetland restoration actions in Hempstead Harbor Cove, specifically invasive species management and the planting of native species. These activities are tied directly to the 2014 Final Restoration Plan and Environmental Assessment Addendum for the Mattiace Petrochemical Site, indicating the project is part of a broader natural resource damage restoration effort connected to that site.
Funding details in the posting indicate an estimated total funding amount of $250,000, with an award floor and ceiling both listed as $25,000, and an expected number of awards of one. The posting also states there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on September 15, 2014, with a closing date of September 19, 2014, and an archive date of September 22, 2014. Because this is a notice rather than a solicitation, the short window functions mainly as a period for questions or comments rather than an application submission period.
For anyone needing clarification, the point of contact listed is Artela Jacobs at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at (404) 679-7197 or by email at artelajacobs@fws.gov. The notice also references Grants.gov as the public listing location, but reiterates that there is no full announcement associated with the notice and that questions were due no later than September 19, 2014.
