Opportunity Summary:
The Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) grant opportunity titled "Research on Aquatic species in reservoirs" (Funding Opportunity Number: FWS 94100 RESERVOIR) is a discretionary grant program intended to support environmental research focused on aquatic vegetation and aquatic species habitats in reservoir systems across the United States. The overall purpose is to generate research-based information that can help improve understanding and management of reservoir ecosystems, particularly the conditions that shape aquatic plant growth and the broader species environment associated with these waters.
This funding opportunity falls under the federal assistance listing CFDA 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance, which generally supports work that helps conserve, manage, and restore fish and wildlife resources. The grant is categorized under the Environment funding activity area, reinforcing that the supported work should be primarily ecological or resource-management oriented. The announcement indicates that funding is intended for research "on/of aquatic vegetation and species environment in reservoirs," which suggests projects could include surveying and mapping aquatic plant communities, evaluating habitat conditions affecting fish and wildlife, assessing ecological interactions in reservoir settings, or producing data and analyses that inform management actions in reservoir environments.
The total estimated funding available under the opportunity is $90,000. The notice lists an award ceiling of $90,000, meaning the maximum possible award amount is capped at that figure. The opportunity anticipated making up to six awards, which implies that individual award amounts could vary and may be smaller than the ceiling depending on how the funding was distributed across selected projects. The funding instrument type is a grant, meaning the award would generally support an approved scope of work carried out by the recipient, with typical federal grant requirements related to reporting, allowable costs, and project oversight.
Eligibility is limited to state governments and small businesses. No cost sharing or matching is required, which can reduce barriers to participation for applicants that do not have separate funds to contribute. The opportunity was posted and created on July 29, 2011. The original and current closing date was August 19, 2011, and the opportunity was archived on August 31, 2011, indicating this was a time-limited competition that is no longer open.
