Opportunity Summary:
The Migratory Bird Monitoring, Assessment, and Conservation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F15AS00089) was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.655, Migratory Bird Monitoring, Assessment and Conservation. The project focus was a research-based study on Golden Eagle dietary responses, with the broader purpose of supporting conservation by improving understanding of migratory bird ecology and habitat use. In practical terms, the work was meant to generate information that could help conserve and enhance migratory bird species and the environments they rely on, using Golden Eagles as the central study species and diet as a key indicator of ecological conditions.
Funding for this opportunity was fixed and relatively small, reflecting a single, targeted award rather than a broad multi-project program cycle. The opportunity anticipated one award with an estimated total funding amount of $46,887, and both the award ceiling and award floor were also listed as $46,887, indicating that the award amount was essentially predetermined. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the grant. The funding instrument type was a grant, and the activity category fell under natural resources and science and technology, along with other research and development, which aligns with the monitoring and assessment theme and the emphasis on producing actionable ecological knowledge.
Eligibility was limited to specific applicant types: public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, for-profit organizations other than small businesses, and small businesses. In addition to organizational eligibility, there was a geographic and residency constraint: applicants had to be U.S. residents, and more specifically residents of the state of Idaho. That requirement effectively narrowed participation to Idaho-based entities or individuals meeting the residency condition, suggesting the study area, management need, or partnering structure was tied closely to Idaho.
The timeline shows this was a time-limited, archived opportunity from 2015. It was posted on February 5, 2015, with an original and current closing date of March 7, 2015, and it was later archived on April 6, 2015. The creation date is listed as February 24, 2015, which typically reflects when the record was finalized or updated in the system. Anyone looking for the original announcement or associated documents was directed to Grants.gov via the additional information link provided in the notice.
For support, the opportunity listed a specific point of contact at the Fish and Wildlife Service: Jamie Juker, reachable by phone at 208-378-5263 and by email at JamieJuker@fws.gov. This contact was also provided for assistance if an applicant had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, which is common for federal postings that may include attachments or compliance instructions not fully captured in short summaries.
