Opportunity Summary:
Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00032, titled "Research and data collection for sage grouse habitat," was a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance program (CFDA 15.608). The project focus was straightforward and applied: support research and data collection aimed at understanding how grazing affects greater sage-grouse populations and, by extension, sage-grouse habitat conditions. The work implied by the description points to field-oriented monitoring and analysis that could help land and wildlife managers evaluate grazing-related impacts on sage-grouse ecology, habitat use, and population responses, with the broader goal of informing conservation and management decisions.
The funding mechanism for this opportunity was a Cooperative Agreement, which typically signals that the agency expected to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as coordinating on study design, data needs, deliverables, or field priorities. The total funding available was $25,000, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $25,000, indicating the agency anticipated making one award at a fixed amount rather than multiple smaller awards. Cost sharing or matching was not required, which would have made participation easier for eligible applicants that might not have had available non-federal funds to contribute.
Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, meaning the competition was aimed at state universities, public colleges, and similar institutions positioned to conduct wildlife and habitat research. The opportunity was posted on November 21, 2012, with an original and final application closing date of December 13, 2012, and it was archived on December 14, 2012, reflecting a short application window typical of smaller, targeted research awards.
