Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "SRLCC Colorado participation and coordination among State and Federal Partners for landscape conservation activities" (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00046) is a small, targeted federal grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service intended to strengthen Colorado's role in the Southern Rockies Landscape Conservation Cooperative (SRLCC). The core purpose is to support better coordination between Colorado state staff and a broader network of state and federal partners working on large, landscape-scale conservation planning in the Southern Rockies region. The funding is specifically aimed at helping Colorado more effectively participate in SRLCC activities and to align its ongoing Decision Support System (DSS) work and Colorado River Basin Study-related landscape projects with other conservation efforts that operate at similar geographic scales.
A major theme of the opportunity is integration and efficiency. By helping Colorado staff stay engaged in SRLCC meetings and collaborative technical work, the grant is designed to ensure that multiple agencies and partners can share data, methods, and planning products rather than duplicating efforts. In practical terms, the agreement supports the development and coordination of landscape-scale projects and the "foundational information" that underpins them, such as shared datasets, analytical tools, or planning frameworks. The intended outcome is improved collaboration across jurisdictions and programs, reduced redundancy, and fewer conflicts among overlapping conservation initiatives, while also producing information that serves agency needs as well as the public interest.
This is a discretionary grant with a single expected award and a total funding amount of $20,000, with the award ceiling and floor both set at $20,000, meaning the award amount is fixed. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The funds are described as supporting salary expenses tied to participation in meetings and/or other technical assistance, enabling state personnel to contribute to mutually agreed SRLCC activities connected to the Colorado River Basin Study and the Colorado-New Mexico DSS landscape projects.
The award was issued as a single-source, non-competitive grant under Department of the Interior policy 505 DM 2.14 B (4), justified on the basis of "unique qualifications." The sole eligible and selected recipient is the Colorado Natural Resources Department, explicitly identified in the announcement as uniquely qualified for this work under the cited policy. The opportunity was posted on January 4, 2013, created the same day, and had an extremely short closing window with an original and current closing date of January 5, 2013. The archive date is February 4, 2013. The CFDA program number associated with the funding is 15.664, Fish and Wildlife Coordination and Assistance Programs, and the activity category is listed under Information and Statistics, Natural Resources, Science and Technology, and other Research and Development.
