Opportunity Information: Apply for FWSR2 SJV MBQUAIL MEX FY2010
The Masked Bobwhite Quail Survey opportunity aims to establish a long-term monitoring program for the critically endangered Masked Bobwhite Quail in Sonora, Mexico. This species is extinct in the wild in the United States, and very few remain in Mexico, making their recovery a priority. The agreement focuses on consistently surveying known habitats, exploring historic ranges for new populations, and identifying suitable areas for future introductions.
The modification to the existing agreement seeks to sustain current survey efforts and ensure timely data collection to prevent loss of vital information. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) will play a significant role, including providing training on survey methods, assisting with breeding season surveys, reviewing data for compliance with monitoring protocols, meeting monthly to discuss progress, liaising with the Recovery Team, and collaborating on updates to the team. This cooperative effort is crucial for the survival of the Masked Bobwhite Quail.Apply for FWSR2 SJV MBQUAIL MEX FY2010

- THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD TO A SINGLE SOURCE THERE IS NO FULL ANNOUNCEMENT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS NOTICE. This Notice is NOT a request for competitive proposals. In accordance with Department of the Interior guidance (505 DM2 at 2.14) the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) hereby provides notice of intent to make a single source award for this project under criterion #2 (Continuation) and #4 (Unique Qualifications) to Eduardo Gomez in the amount of 28,100 via a modification to an existing agreement with the recipient. The objective of the agreement is to maintain a long term Masked Bobwhite Quail (MBQ) Survey Program in Sonora, Mexico. The MBQ is arguably the most endangered bird in North America and a high priority species for recovery efforts by the Service. They are extinct in the wild in the United States and there are very few left in Mexico. The key to its recovery is to annually monitor areas in Sonora where they are still known to exist, survey other parts of their historic range to find new populations and to identify and record areas where good habitat still exists for use as introduction sites in the future. Further competition would jeopardize the MBQ Survey Program by interrupting the surveys in the middle of the breeding season at a critical time in the recovery efforts for this species by the FWS. In addition, the recipient is a Mexican biologist and a MBQ expert, the only MBQ expert in northwestern Mexico. Since 2006, Mr. Gomez has been coordinating MBQ surveys in Sonora for the FWS under the existing cooperative agreement. Because he lives in Sonora and can speak Spanish, he has been extremely effective in training other Mexican biologists to assist in the surveys, working with land owners in Sonora to gain access to lands to conduct surveys, interviewing ranchers about areas where MBQ might be found, and monitoring areas where the FWS currently has conservation agreements with some landowners. Mr. Gomez s combination of education and experience make him uniquely qualified to coordinate and execute MBQ surveys and facilitate outreach to landowners. His participation has been invaluable.
