Opportunity Summary:
The Seminole Tribe of Florida Gulf Coast Restoration Grant (Funding Opportunity Number A16AP00082) is a discretionary grant action administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs (DOI-BIA), under CFDA 87.052. It falls within the environmental funding activity category and is tied to work supporting Gulf Coast restoration efforts associated with the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program. The opportunity was posted and created on May 16, 2016, with an associated closing date of June 15, 2016.
This notice is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Award Only," meaning it is not an open call and not a solicitation for new proposals or competitive applications. Instead, DOI-BIA indicates its intent to make a specific award directly to a named recipient: the Seminole Tribe of Florida, a federally recognized tribal government. As such, the typical competitive application process does not apply here, and the listing primarily serves as a public record of the planned or issued award.
The purpose of the grant is to enlist and train Seminole tribal youth to carry out environmental data collection activities. The work is meant to build youth capacity and involvement in environmental stewardship while also generating data that supports the Tribe's environmental management needs, particularly as those needs relate to Gulf Coast ecosystem restoration and oil spill impact-related priorities. In practical terms, this kind of project commonly includes training youth in field sampling and monitoring methods, data recording practices, and basic environmental assessment techniques that can be used to inform tribal natural resource decisions and restoration planning.
The award information indicates an expected single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $100,000. Because the opportunity is set up for a single recipient and is not open for competition, the ceiling functions more like a maximum anticipated award amount for this specific project rather than a cap for multiple applicants.
