Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00372) is a discretionary grant action from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in the form of a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance. It is titled "Notice of Intent to Award the White Mountain Apache Tribe for Continued Cooperation on the Mexican Wolf Recovery Program," which signals that the agency is stating its intention to make a specific award tied to ongoing work rather than running a broad, open competition for many applicants. The overall program area is natural resources, and the purpose is to support continued collaboration connected to Mexican wolf recovery activities.
The announcement anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) and lists total estimated funding at $1,100,000. For this specific award action, the funding amount is set at $205,000, shown by both the award ceiling and award floor being the same, which typically means the agency has a defined budget for this particular project and is not seeking variable funding proposals in different ranges. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to provide non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is identified as "Native American tribal organizations (other than Federally recognized tribal governments)," and the notice is explicitly directed to the White Mountain Apache Tribe for continued cooperation on the Mexican Wolf Recovery Program. In practical terms, a notice of intent to award like this commonly reflects an established partnership or a continuation of previously funded efforts where the agency expects to work closely with the recipient. The cooperative agreement instrument type also matters here: it generally indicates substantial federal involvement during the project, meaning FWS is likely to coordinate, participate, or provide ongoing technical direction as part of implementing recovery-related activities rather than simply issuing funds with minimal interaction.
Key timing details show the posting and creation date as August 9, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 17, 2012, and an archive date of August 20, 2012. Those short windows are typical of intent-to-award postings, since the main purpose is often public notice and administrative transparency rather than soliciting extensive competing applications. The listing includes an additional information link to Grants.gov, and for access issues the contact provided is Sherry Barrett at sherrybarrett@fws.gov.
In short, this is a time-limited, single-recipient, continuation-oriented cooperative agreement action by FWS to provide $205,000 to support the White Mountain Apache Tribe's continued participation and coordination in Mexican wolf recovery efforts, under the Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance program, with no matching funds required and with anticipated ongoing federal involvement consistent with a cooperative agreement.
