Opportunity Summary:
The South Atlantic Conservation Blueprint grant opportunity is a discretionary funding program offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) under Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00311. It supports science, technology, and other research and development work tied to building and improving the South Atlantic Conservation Blueprint, a regional, map-based conservation planning product developed through the South Atlantic Landscape Conservation Cooperative (South Atlantic LCC). The core intent is to fund projects that contribute to a shared, spatially explicit plan identifying priority places and conservation actions needed to sustain natural and cultural resources across the South Atlantic region as conditions change over time.
This opportunity is connected to the South Atlantic LCC, a partnership of federal, state, and private organizations focused on landscape-scale conservation for current and future generations. The Cooperative has a 1 to 3 year mission to create a shared blueprint that guides conservation actions across the region. The Blueprint is described as a "living plan," meaning it is meant to be updated as new data, tools, and partner priorities emerge. At the time of this announcement, Version 1.0 had been completed, and work on Version 2.0 was underway with an anticipated completion date of June 2015. Funding through this call is meant to help advance that ongoing development and refinement effort.
Applicants have broad eligibility. The program is open to essentially all types of entities, including state and federal agency personnel, municipal and county governments, non-governmental organizations, and even individuals. The listing indicates there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier to participation for organizations that may not have non-federal funds available.
Awards are expected to be made as cooperative agreements, with an estimated total program funding level of $300,000 and an anticipated six awards. Individual awards are expected to fall between $50,000 (award floor) and $200,000 (award ceiling). The program is associated with CFDA number 15.669, Cooperative Landscape Conservation, reflecting its focus on cooperative, partnership-driven conservation planning and implementation support.
The application window for the original posting ran from July 16, 2014, with a closing date of August 15, 2014 (and an archive date of August 31, 2014). Proposals could be submitted through multiple channels, including Grants.gov, email, or mail, following the directions in the full announcement. For access issues or questions about the full notice, the contact listed is Nijua Heard, Grant Specialist, reachable at 404-679-4146 or NijuaHeard@fws.gov, and additional information is referenced through Grants.gov (www.grant.gov).
