Opportunity Summary:
The Migratory Bird Coordinator grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FWS 9 DBHC AFWA 2011) is a continuation grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) to support coordination and leadership for U.S. bird conservation partnerships. The central purpose of the award is to coordinate activities and advance priorities of the U.S. North American Bird Conservation Initiative (NABCI) Committee, on which the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service serves as a member. In addition to NABCI coordination, the funded work is intended to support other regional and national bird conservation activities, helping align efforts across partners and maintain momentum on shared migratory bird conservation goals.
This opportunity is explicitly identified by the agency as a single-source award under Department policy, meaning FWS does not expect competing applications and anticipates making one award to a specific eligible organization. The announcement lists one expected award with an estimated total funding amount of $60,000, and both the award ceiling and maximum are also set at $60,000, indicating the full award value is intended to be at that amount. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the grant.
The assistance listing connected to this funding is CFDA 15.637, Migratory Bird Joint Ventures, and the activity category is Environment and Natural Resources. Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on April 1, 2011, with an original and current closing date of April 8, 2011, and an archive date of April 9, 2011, reflecting a short application window consistent with a continuation, single-source action.
Applicants or interested parties are directed to Grants.gov for additional information, and the contact listed for access issues or questions is Ken Kriese.
