Opportunity Summary:
Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00280, titled "Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief, Science Applications," was a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) under CFDA 15.677, Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief Activities. The program falls under Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief authority (Public Law 113-2) and was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the agency expected substantial involvement in carrying out or overseeing the work rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back.
The purpose of this specific award was to support Trout Unlimited (based in Arlington, Virginia) in developing and implementing pilot training programs focused on aquatic connectivity and flood resilience. In practical terms, the project was aimed at building capacity and know-how around restoring or maintaining connections in aquatic systems (for example, improving fish passage and stream continuity) while also reducing flood risks and improving resilience in watersheds affected by major storm impacts like Hurricane Sandy. The emphasis on "pilot training programs" indicates the funding was intended to create and test training approaches that could be replicated or scaled, rather than funding only on-the-ground construction or restoration work.
The opportunity anticipated a single award with a total estimated funding amount of $71,500. The award ceiling and floor were both set at $71,500, signaling that the grant amount was fixed rather than a range. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal funds to receive the award. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any clarifications provided in the full announcement.
Key dates for the announcement were straightforward: it was posted and created on July 3, 2014, with an application deadline of August 4, 2014. The listing was later archived on August 30, 2014. Additional details and the full announcement were available via Grants.gov, and the named point of contact for access issues was Cheryle Lawrence, Grants/Agreements Officer at FWS, reachable at cherylelawrence@fws.gov.
