Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Implementation of actions under the CAP Gila River Basin Native Fish Conservation Program" (Funding Opportunity Number F09AC00084) is a continuation award issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to support ongoing native fish conservation work in Arizona during fiscal year 2013. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the funding agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project’s direction, coordination, or oversight as compared to a standard grant. The overall purpose is to fund implementation activities required under the Gila River Basin Native Fish Conservation Program, which focuses on conserving native fish species and their habitats within the Gila River Basin.

This opportunity is categorized as a continuation rather than an open competitive solicitation, and it is explicitly designated as a sole-source action to the Arizona Game and Fish Department. In practical terms, that means the award was not intended for a broad pool of applicants; eligibility is restricted to a single recipient (Arizona Game and Fish Department) because the work is part of an existing agreement and represents continued funding for previously established responsibilities and planned conservation actions. The eligible applicant category is listed generally as "Others," but the eligibility clarification makes clear that only the Arizona Game and Fish Department is intended to receive the funds.

The funding details indicate a single expected award with a total estimated amount of $375,600. Both the award ceiling and award floor are also listed as $375,600, signaling that the award amount is fixed for this continuation action rather than variable. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.615, the Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund, and it falls under the broader funding activity category of Environment, reflecting the conservation and resource management focus of the supported work.

Key administrative dates show the opportunity was posted and created on December 13, 2012, with an application closing date of January 14, 2013, and an archive date of February 13, 2013. Even though it had a formal closing date, the continuation and sole-source nature of the announcement indicate it functioned primarily as a mechanism to document and process continued federal support for an existing project relationship, rather than to solicit new project proposals from the public.

For assistance with accessing the full announcement electronically or for further questions tied to the notice, the listed point of contact is Lesley Fitzpatrick, a Fish and Wildlife Biologist, reachable by phone at (602) 242-0210, with contact via a government email address as indicated in the announcement.
