Opportunity Summary:
The Migratory Bird Management grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00212) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service focused on the conservation of North American migratory birds. It is tied to the federal assistance listing (CFDA) 15.655, Migratory Bird Monitoring, Assessment and Conservation, which generally supports work such as monitoring bird populations, evaluating habitat conditions and management needs, and carrying out conservation actions that help sustain migratory bird species across their ranges. The opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the agency typically expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work, such as collaborating on project direction, technical input, coordination, or oversight compared to a standard grant.
This opportunity anticipated making one award. The estimated total funding available was listed as $37,000, with an award floor of $37,000 and an award ceiling of $92,500. No cost sharing or matching requirement was identified, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award. The posting date and creation date were both June 3, 2014, and the original and current closing date were June 9, 2014, indicating a very short application window. The opportunity was later archived on September 30, 2014.
Eligibility was not broadly competitive in the typical sense. The announcement specifies a single source award, and the eligible applicant category is listed as "Others" with a note to see additional eligibility information in the full announcement. In practical terms, "single source" generally signals that the agency intended to fund one specific recipient rather than soliciting and evaluating multiple competing proposals. Anyone trying to understand who could apply and under what conditions would have needed to consult the linked additional information page provided by the agency.
For applicants or interested parties needing help accessing the announcement, the listed contact was Katherine Smiley at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The contact phone number was 907-786-3412, and the email address provided was KatherineSmiley@fws.gov.
