Opportunity Summary:
The Invasive Species Strike Team grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00268) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) under CFDA 15.664, Fish and Wildlife Coordination and Assistance Programs. It was posted and created on July 16, 2012, with an application closing date of July 27, 2012, and it was later archived on August 26, 2012. The purpose of the award is to provide funding to the University of Hawaii Pacific Cooperative Studies Unit (PCSU) so USFWS and PCSU can work together on projects that address invasive species threats affecting USFWS National Wildlife Refuges.
The total funding amount for this opportunity is $100,000, and it is structured as a single award with a fixed range: an award floor of $100,000 and an award ceiling of $100,000, meaning the expected cooperative agreement award is exactly $100,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible. Although the announcement is framed as an education-related funding activity category, the central goal described is practical, on-the-ground coordination and project work focused on invasive species issues on refuge lands, carried out in cooperation with PCSU.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, aligning with the intent to fund PCSU through the University of Hawaii system. The cooperative agreement structure signals that USFWS anticipates substantial involvement in the work rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant, which is typical for projects where the agency and the recipient coordinate closely on technical priorities, planning, implementation, and reporting related to invasive species management.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Jason Hanley, Invasive Species Strike Team Leader, reachable by phone at 808-271-2743, with an additional note referencing Lotus Notes for contact.
