Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "LCC Addressing National Science, Conservation Information, and Related Decision Support Needs" (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00244) is a discretionary federal grant/cooperative agreement program administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It is tied to the work of the Gulf Coastal Plains and Ozarks Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GCPO LCC), a non-regulatory conservation partnership that brings together private organizations along with state and federal agencies. The overall purpose is to support science, conservation information, and decision-support efforts that help partners collectively plan and deliver landscape-scale conservation outcomes. The emphasis is on sustaining natural and cultural resources at desired levels both now and into the future, using coordinated, collaborative approaches rather than regulatory mandates.
From a funding and award structure standpoint, the opportunity anticipated making about five awards with an estimated total program funding level of $1,750,000. Each individual award was set at a fixed level, with both the award ceiling and award floor listed as $350,000, indicating that awards were expected to be uniform in size. The program did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can make participation easier for applicants that do not have dedicated match resources. The funding instrument types listed include cooperative agreements, grants, and other mechanisms, reflecting flexibility in how the agency could structure project support depending on the nature of the work and the level of anticipated federal involvement.
In terms of eligibility, the listing indicates that eligibility was unrestricted and that all potential applicants were eligible, meaning proposals could be submitted by a wide range of entity types (for example, nonprofit organizations, universities, tribes, state or local governments, or private entities), subject to any additional clarifications that would have been included in the full announcement on Grants.gov. The funding activity category is "Science and Technology and other Research and Development," aligning the opportunity with applied science, data development, and tools that inform conservation decision-making at landscape scales. The opportunity is associated with CFDA numbers 15.669 (Cooperative Landscape Conservation) and 15.670 (Adaptive Science), signaling its focus on collaborative conservation and adaptive, science-based management.
