Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity, titled "Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief, Proj SA 024 Restoration and Resiliency of Beach Habitat, NJ" (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00294), was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief Activities program (CFDA 15.677). It was issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the agency expected to have substantial involvement with the recipient during the project rather than simply providing funds and receiving a final deliverable. The purpose of the award was narrowly focused on supporting coastal recovery and resilience work in New Jersey after Hurricane Sandy, specifically centered on beach habitat restoration and long-term resiliency.

The scope of work emphasized producing practical, transferable guidance rather than on-the-ground construction. The selected awardee was expected to develop a technical report that lays out best management practices for preserving and enhancing beach habitat in New Jersey, drawing on post-Sandy lessons learned and restoration/resilience concepts. In addition to the written technical product, the project also required delivery of two workshops in partnership with Rutgers University in New Jersey. Those workshops were intended to share the best management practices, strengthen coordination among relevant stakeholders, and improve implementation capacity for beach habitat protection and enhancement efforts.

The total funding available for this opportunity was a fixed amount of $10,000, with an award ceiling and floor both set at $10,000, and the agency anticipated making one award. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, lowering barriers for applicants and signaling that the project was designed as a targeted technical assistance and knowledge-sharing effort rather than a large restoration capital project. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any applicant type), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full notice on Grants.gov.

Key dates for the announcement were a posting date of July 14, 2014, and an application closing date of August 14, 2014, with the opportunity archived on August 29, 2014. Applicants were directed to the full announcement on Grants.gov for complete requirements and submission instructions. For assistance accessing the announcement, the point of contact listed was Cheryle Lawrence, Grants/Agreements Officer, reachable at cherylelawrence@fws.gov.
