Opportunity Summary:
The Hualapai Tribe Zebra Tailed Lizard Translocation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R14SS00010) was a continuation cooperative agreement offered by the Bureau of Reclamation to support ongoing monitoring of a wildlife reintroduction effort on the Hualapai Reservation. The project centers on the Diamond Creek dune area along the Colorado River, where twelve zebra-tailed lizards were translocated in April 2012 after being absent from the site for nearly 30 years. Follow-up monitoring after the initial release showed that the number of lizards observed during monthly surveys fluctuated widely, but importantly, successful reproduction was confirmed in 2013, suggesting at least some level of establishment.
The main purpose of the 2014 funding was to keep monthly monitoring going so the Tribe and project partners could better determine whether the translocation was truly succeeding or failing. Because the survey counts were highly variable, a single season of post-release observations was not considered enough to draw confident conclusions about population stability, survival, recruitment, or overall site suitability. The 2014 monthly surveys were intended to generate a clearer record of trends in presence, abundance, and evidence of continued reproduction. The results would also help inform adaptive decisions: if few zebra-tailed lizards were detected in 2014, the opportunity notes that a second translocation might be needed, along with discussions about how to improve translocation methods, timing, handling, release strategies, or habitat considerations.
The opportunity also ties the work to broader river and resource management discussions. Specifically, it notes that if monitoring results point to the need for another translocation or improvements to the approach, those topics would be appropriate to raise within the Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Technical Work Group. In other words, the monitoring data were not only meant to assess this single effort on the Reservation, but also to feed into the wider adaptive management framework connected to Colorado River operations and associated ecological outcomes.
Administratively, the program was posted on June 2, 2014, with an original and final closing date of June 15, 2014, and an archive date of June 16, 2014. The agency expected to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $3,844, and the listed award ceiling was also $3,844 (with an award floor of $1). No cost sharing or matching was required. The CFDA listing included 15.517 (Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act), and the funding activity category was labeled as Humanities (with a note to see Cultural Affairs in CFDA), reflecting how the program was categorized in the source system even though the project itself is clearly wildlife-focused.
Eligibility was broad and included federally recognized Tribal governments, state and local governments, nonprofits, public and private institutions, small businesses, for-profit entities, individuals, and Native American organizations. The listed point of contact for access issues with the announcement was Timothy Wagoner, Grants Officer at the Bureau of Reclamation (phone 801-524-3704).
