Opportunity Summary:
The R2 Sport Fish Restoration Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number F15AS00451) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.605, the Sport Fish Restoration Program. In this specific announcement, the grant funding is intended to support historical preservation activities on land owned by the Arizona Game and Fish Commission near Eagar, Arizona. The opportunity sits within the broader Environment and Natural Resources activity category, but the project purpose described here is narrowly focused on preserving historical resources associated with that state-owned property.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, and the title explicitly notes that it is for state game and fish agencies only. The announcement anticipates a single award, with total estimated funding of $70,000. The award structure is straightforward: the award ceiling and award floor are both listed as $70,000, meaning the agency expected to make one grant in that exact amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the notice indicates there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement for this award, which means the recipient is not required (per the listing) to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the $70,000.
Key timeline details show the opportunity was posted on September 1, 2015, with a creation date of September 2, 2015. The original application closing date was September 8, 2015, and it was later extended to a current closing date of September 21, 2015. The opportunity was ultimately archived on October 1, 2017, which typically means it is no longer open for applications and is maintained for recordkeeping.
