Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity is a Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary grant notice (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00333) announcing the agency's intent to make a single-source award rather than run a competitive application process. The project is titled "Regional Risk Assessment for Upper Midwest and Great Lakes LCC Priority Species," and it falls under the environment activity category, with the CFDA listing of 15.650 (Research Grants - Generic). The notice was posted on August 28, 2013, and the original and current closing date shown is September 5, 2013, with the archive date of September 6, 2013. Importantly, the announcement repeatedly states that this is not an application opportunity; it is simply a public notification that the agency plans to proceed with a single recipient.
The intended recipient is the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, selected under the Department of the Interior's single-source justification authority cited as 505 DM 2.14B (2,3). In practical terms, that citation signals the agency has determined there is a justified reason to award directly to that specific organization (for example, unique qualifications, statutory or programmatic considerations, or other allowable reasons under that policy). Because of that structure, other entities are not being solicited to apply, and the "Eligible Applicants" field effectively points back to the clarification that the award is directed to Wisconsin DNR.
Funding for the effort is listed as an estimated total of $75,325, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The award ceiling and floor are both displayed as $0, which commonly occurs in notices like this when the agency is not setting competitive range parameters because it is not accepting proposals; the meaningful figure to focus on is the estimated total funding amount. The notice also indicates there is expected to be one award.
Substantively, the work described by the title focuses on a regional risk assessment tied to "LCC priority species" in the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes area. "LCC" refers to Landscape Conservation Cooperatives, which were designed to support landscape-scale conservation planning by bringing partners together and using science and data to inform decisions across jurisdictions. A regional risk assessment in this context typically means evaluating threats, vulnerabilities, and potential impacts to priority species across a broad geography, often considering stressors such as habitat change, invasive species, climate-related impacts, land and water use changes, and other drivers that can affect species persistence and management options. While the notice text provided does not include a detailed scope of work, the project framing strongly suggests the grant supports applied research and assessment products intended to guide conservation planning and prioritization within the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes region.
For anyone needing the official posting or additional documentation, the notice points to Grants.gov via the additional information link (http://www.grants.gov). The listed point of contact for access issues is John Rogner at the Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at 847-381-2253 or by email at JohnRogner@fws.gov.
