Opportunity Summary:
The "Sacramento State University Collaborative" (Funding Opportunity Number F16AS00134) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (DOI-FWS) discretionary funding action structured as a cooperative agreement in the environment program area (CFDA 15.669). It was posted and created on March 16, 2016, and it is explicitly issued as a Notice of Intent to make an award to California State University, Sacramento, meaning it is not a competitive solicitation and no responses or applications are expected from other organizations.
The purpose of the agreement is to formalize a partnership between the California Landscape Conservation Cooperative (CA LCC) and the Refuges Inventory and Monitoring (I and M) Program with California State University, Sacramento (Sacramento State) and its affiliated support entity, University Enterprises Incorporated (UEI). The collaboration is designed to serve as an educational platform that connects scientific research and real-world natural resource management, effectively building a bridge between disciplines that do not always work together closely. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at aligning and advancing the missions of each partner by combining multiple supportive efforts rather than funding a single narrow project. These efforts include coordinated research activities, education-focused initiatives, and outreach projects that translate technical work into information that can be used by managers and understood by broader audiences.
A central theme of the collaboration is climate change: the work is intended to increase public awareness of climate change impacts and strengthen understanding of the science relevant to conservation and management decisions. By integrating university-based capacity with the applied needs of federal conservation programs, the agreement supports activities that connect data, monitoring, research, and communication, with the broader goal of improving how climate-related science informs management practices while also enhancing public engagement and literacy on the topic.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, consistent with the intention to award directly to Sacramento State. The anticipated award profile is a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $163,841. The listing indicates no open closing date because the agency does not expect competition and does not invite submissions from other applicants.
