Opportunity Summary:
The Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service posted a discretionary funding notice titled "Research Grants (Generic)" (Funding Opportunity Number F16AS00386) in the Environment and Natural Resources category under CFDA 15.650. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning the agency expected to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than simply issuing funds with minimal ongoing participation.
This notice was not a competitive solicitation. It was issued strictly for notification purposes to document that a single-source financial assistance award had already been made to the University of New Hampshire (UNH). The eligible applicant type listed is "Public and State controlled institutions of higher education," which aligns with UNH. Because the award was already completed at the time of posting, the opportunity did not have an open application window, and the listing indicates there were no expected new awards and no actionable closing date for prospective applicants.
The award period was approximately 3.5 years, with an award ceiling listed at $200,000. In practical terms, this ceiling reflects the maximum amount associated with the announcement, but it is presented in a context where the recipient and award decision were already determined. The creation date for the posting is August 4, 2016, and the overall purpose of the posting is administrative transparency rather than inviting proposals or applications from other institutions.
