Opportunity Summary:

This government grant opportunity, titled "Synthesis of on going long term monitoring programs by Great Northern Landscape Conservation," was issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) as a discretionary funding opportunity focused on environment and natural resources. The project is framed as a synthesis effort, meaning the core purpose is to pull together, review, and integrate information coming from ongoing long-term monitoring programs associated with the Great Northern Landscape Conservation initiative. In practical terms, opportunities like this typically support compiling existing monitoring data and findings, identifying trends and gaps across programs, and producing summary products that help partners make more coordinated, landscape-scale conservation decisions.

The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates that the agency expects substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds. This can include collaboration on project direction, coordination with other partners, involvement in review of deliverables, and alignment with broader agency and landscape conservation priorities. The opportunity lists one expected award, with an estimated total funding amount of $25,000. No cost sharing or matching funds are required, which means the recipient is not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which is commonly used in postings where the agency does not want to state a firm per-award limit in the public-facing fields or where the amount is controlled through the agreement terms rather than those metadata fields.

Eligibility for this opportunity is essentially restricted and award-specific. While the general eligibility field says "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the eligibility information clarifies that the agreement is being awarded to Montana State University under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). That indicates it is not an open competition in the usual sense; instead, it is a directed cooperative agreement to a named institution within the CESU network, which is a partnership framework used by federal agencies to collaborate with universities and other partners on research, technical assistance, and education projects.

The administrative timeline reflects a short posting window. The opportunity was posted and created on September 8, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 15, 2010. The archive date is October 15, 2010, meaning that after that date it was treated as a closed, historical posting in the grants system. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.650, listed as "Research Grants (Generic)," which signals the project is treated as research or technical synthesis rather than on-the-ground construction or direct implementation funding.

For questions or issues accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Andrea Meyer, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-236-5412. The posting also references email contact, though the address is not included in the text provided.
