Opportunity Summary:
The OISC ED/RR Program Support grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00314) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to support invasive species work in the State of Hawaii, with a specific focus on Oahu. The purpose of the award is to strengthen the Oahu Invasive Species Committee (OISC) by funding its Early Detection and Rapid Response (ED/RR) efforts, which are the on-the-ground activities used to find new or emerging invasive species problems quickly and act before they spread widely. The work is intended to occur across both private and public lands, reflecting the reality that invasive species do not respect property boundaries and often require coordinated, island-wide action.
The public benefit emphasized in the announcement is the protection of trust resources and other public assets affected by invasive species. In practical terms, this means reducing or preventing harm to native ecosystems, wildlife habitat, and other conservation priorities that the public relies on and that government agencies hold in trust. Because ED/RR focuses on catching problems early, the funded work is aimed at preventing larger ecological damage and avoiding the much higher long-term costs associated with widespread infestations.
This funding opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and is linked to CFDA 15.657, Endangered Species Conservation - Recovery Implementation Funds. The program anticipates making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $30,000. The award ceiling is $30,000 and the award floor is $0, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute additional funds to be considered.
Eligibility is limited to private institutions of higher education. The grant was posted and created on August 13, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 27, 2013, indicating a short application window. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov at http://www.grants.gov.
