Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Programming assistance" (Funding Opportunity Number: NWRS R2 11004), was offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as a discretionary cooperative agreement to support science and technology-related research and development work. The purpose of the award was narrowly focused: to provide programming support for building a computer-based simulation that models elk movements in riparian systems. In practical terms, the work would involve developing or assisting with software that can represent how elk move through streamside or river-adjacent habitats, likely to help managers understand patterns of habitat use and potential impacts on riparian vegetation and associated wildlife resources.
The opportunity anticipated making a single award, with total funding of $4,000. The award amount was fixed, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $4,000, meaning applicants should have expected a small, targeted project rather than a large multi-year effort. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the applicant was not required to contribute additional funds to be eligible or competitive under the terms listed.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations holding IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The funding was listed under CFDA number 15.650 (Research Grants (Generic)), which aligns with research support activities under the Department of the Interior umbrella and indicates the project was considered research-oriented, even though it emphasized programming and simulation development.
Key dates show this was a short-window announcement. It was posted on August 25, 2011 (created August 24, 2011) and originally closed on August 31, 2011, with the same date listed as the current closing date. The announcement was later archived on September 30, 2011. This timeline suggests the agency likely needed assistance quickly, possibly for a discrete component of a broader ongoing project.
For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Bernard Lujan, Assistant Refuge Supervisor, reachable by phone at 505-248-6805 or by email at bernardlujan@fws.gov.
