Opportunity Summary:
The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00173) is a mandatory, single-source grant announcement issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It is categorized under environmental funding activities and is specifically described as Congressionally approved and mandated funding directed to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF). Because it is a sole source action, the intent is not to run a competitive process; instead, the notice serves as the formal public posting that a grant award will be made to the designated recipient as required by Congress.
The opportunity anticipates one award with a total estimated funding amount of $7,525,000. The award floor and award ceiling are both listed as $7,525,000, which effectively means the grant amount is fixed at that level rather than offered as a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award. The assistance listing is associated with CFDA number 15.663 (National Fish and Wildlife Foundation), indicating the federal assistance program under which the funding is administered.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education, but in practice the announcement is explicitly tied to the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation as the intended and only recipient under this Congressionally mandated, single-source structure. The posting date is May 17, 2012, with a creation date of June 5, 2012. The original and current closing date both reference June 12, 2012, alongside the clarification that this is a sole source announcement tied to Congressionally approved and mandated funding. The archive date is September 15, 2012, which reflects when the notice was set to be removed from active listings.
For applicants or members of the public seeking the full announcement, the notice points to Grants.gov as the source for additional details. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact is Brian Bohnsack at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable at 703-358-2435 or via email at BrianBohnsack@fws.gov.
