Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "RECOVERY ACT Central Yukon Field Office Habitat Restoration Data Analysis, Fairbanks, AK" is a Recovery Act funded cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, focused on improving wildlife habitat knowledge in Alaska in order to better protect public resources and inform land use permitting decisions. The work is centered on the Central Yukon Field Office area near Fairbanks, specifically the Utility Corridor Management Area in the northeastern portion of that office's management footprint. A major purpose of the project is to strengthen the understanding of how key ungulate species use habitat and move across the landscape, with an emphasis on species that are important to rural Alaskans for subsistence.

The project scope is primarily data-focused rather than field-collection focused. The selected cooperator is expected to compile and analyze existing radio-telemetry datasets for three ungulate species: moose, caribou, and Dall's sheep. The datasets include both VHF and GPS radio telemetry location data, meaning the work likely involves bringing together location records from different monitoring efforts and time periods, cleaning and standardizing them, and conducting analyses that reveal patterns of habitat use, movements, and potentially seasonal ranges or corridor use. The overall intent is to translate existing animal location information into practical insights that can be used to evaluate the effects of land use permitting and related activities within the corridor management area.

Administratively, this opportunity was posted on December 10, 2009, with an application closing date of January 11, 2010, and it was archived on January 31, 2010. It anticipated a single award, and the funding was fixed at $96,000, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $96,000, suggesting a single, defined project budget rather than a range. The funding instrument was a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the agency expected to have substantial involvement during the project compared with a standard grant. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, and eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning any entity type could apply as long as it met any conditions described in the full announcement.

The opportunity fell under CFDA 15.231, "Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management," and the listing directs applicants to grants.gov for full details. The contact provided for access issues with the full announcement was Sandra S. Smith at s2smith@blm.gov.
