Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Invasive Plant Council" (Funding Opportunity Number CALCC 2003), is a discretionary cooperative agreement administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) through the California Landscape Conservation Cooperative (CA LCC). The award supports work tied directly to the CA LCC 2011 program priorities in the natural resources category. In practical terms, the project is meant to strengthen invasive plant management planning across California by improving access to decision-support mapping tools.
The core deliverable is the development of an online tool built around a set of invasive plant risk maps. The tool is intended for use by natural resource managers, enabling them to draw or select custom areas of interest, generate tailored maps for those areas, and produce summary statistics that help quantify risk and compare locations. By pairing mapped risk information with quick summaries, the tool is designed to make it easier to set management priorities, focus limited resources, and coordinate actions across jurisdictions. The emphasis is on usability for management decisions, not just producing static maps, so the online interface and the ability to generate outputs on demand are central to the project.
USFWS states that it plans to make a single-source award to the California Invasive Plant Council rather than run a competitive application process. The justification given is that the organization has unique qualifications, particularly staff with the technical expertise needed to develop the tool. The notice explicitly notes there is no application process for this project; instead, it serves as a notice of intent to award under justification 505 DM 2.14 (B4). The listing reflects an "ExpectedAwards" count of 1, reinforcing that the funding is intended for one recipient.
The total anticipated funding is $96,523, and the award ceiling is the same amount, indicating a single fixed maximum for the agreement. No cost sharing or matching is required. Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on June 13, 2011, with an original and current closing date of June 17, 2011, and an archive date of July 17, 2011. The anticipated project start date is July 2011, with expected completion in December 2012, which implies an implementation period of roughly 18 months to build, test, and deliver the online mapping and reporting capability.
