Opportunity Summary:
The Mojave Shoulderband Snail Field Assessment (Funding Opportunity Number F16AS00062) is a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (DOI-FWS) under CFDA 15.657 in the environment program area. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funding with minimal interaction.
The purpose of the grant is to support field survey work in the Mojave Desert focused on the Mojave shoulderband snail. The core project goal is to determine whether the species is present or absent at survey locations, and to gather baseline biological information where it is found. Beyond detection, the work is intended to improve understanding of the snail's demography and basic ecology, which generally includes information such as population structure, relative abundance or density at occupied sites, and fundamental habitat or site-use characteristics that help explain where the species persists and under what conditions.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to for-profit organizations other than small businesses, indicating that the anticipated applicant pool is commercial or corporate entities that do not qualify as small businesses. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $50,000. The notice was created and posted on December 17, 2015, with an original and current application closing date of January 1, 2016, reflecting a short application window between posting and deadline.
In practical terms, the award was designed to fund a targeted field assessment that produces actionable presence/absence results and basic ecological and demographic insights for the Mojave shoulderband snail, contributing to improved knowledge for conservation planning and management in the Mojave Desert.
