Opportunity Summary:
The Migratory Bird Joint Ventures Gulf Coast Joint Venture (GCJV) Fiscal Year 2011 grant opportunity is a discretionary federal funding program focused on conserving and improving important bird habitats across the Gulf Coast Joint Venture region. The GCJV operates as a regional partnership that brings together public agencies and private organizations to coordinate habitat conservation for migratory birds and other priority bird species. Its work is organized around a practical conservation cycle: using biological planning to identify priority needs, carrying out on-the-ground habitat conservation actions, monitoring results and evaluating whether strategies are working, and communicating outcomes and guidance to partners and stakeholders.
Funding is provided through the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (under CFDA 15.637, Migratory Bird Joint Ventures), which supplies base administrative support to keep the partnership functioning and moving priorities forward. From there, the GCJV can award federal assistance to support annual or multi-year projects that fit within its core mission areas. The main types of activities supported include coordination among partners, biological planning, monitoring and evaluation tied to both planning and implementation, communications and outreach, and the development and implementation of habitat conservation actions. The funding instruments listed for this opportunity include cooperative agreements and grants, signaling that projects may involve varying levels of collaboration and federal involvement depending on the specific activity and agreement structure.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity is broadly open to many types of applicants, provided they meet any additional eligibility conditions that may be specified in the full announcement. A notable feature of this opportunity is that it does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can make participation more accessible for organizations that have limited non-federal funding available.
The announcement emphasizes early coordination with the GCJV Office before submitting a proposal. Prospective applicants are encouraged to discuss GCJV priority activities and refine project ideas in conversation with the Joint Venture, which helps ensure that proposed work aligns with the partnership's current objectives and regional conservation priorities. The primary point of contact listed is Barry Wilson, GCJV Coordinator (barrywilson@usgs.gov, phone 337-266-8815). Additional background on the partnership is available at http://www.gcjv.org, and applicants who cannot access the full announcement electronically are directed to contact the coordinator for assistance.
