Opportunity Summary:
The USFWS Mountain Prairie Conservation Priority Outreach opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00339) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary cooperative agreement focused on strengthening conservation delivery in the Service's Mountain Prairie Region through targeted outreach and communications. The work is centered on creating and supporting communication efforts that help partners, stakeholders, and the public understand and engage with priority conservation issues in the region. While the agreement is framed broadly as outreach support, the initial emphasis is specifically on conservation related to sage-grouse, sagebrush ecosystems, and the Prairie Pothole Region, including the habitats involved and the species that depend on them.
The planned scope of work includes developing a range of outreach products across multiple formats. This includes visual and digital materials such as photos, videos, and other multimedia content, as well as traditional print deliverables like fact sheets, brochures, maps, and handouts. In addition to producing materials, the award anticipates strategic planning and program support for identified outreach initiatives, meaning the recipient would help design or refine outreach approaches and assist with implementation. The agreement also includes hosting outreach events with partners and stakeholders, which suggests an emphasis on convening and collaboration, not just producing communications products.
This notice is a "Notice of Intent" to make a single-source award rather than a competitive solicitation. The recipient is the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), and the listing explains that the single-source approach is justified under Department of the Interior policy (505 DM 2.14) based on congressional legislative intent and NFWF's unique qualifications. The notice highlights that NFWF was established by Congress to work with the Service on projects of this type and notes NFWF's capped direct cost rate (10 percent) for expenditures tied to cooperative projects, positioning it as a particularly suitable partner for this kind of outreach effort.
The opportunity planned for one award with total funding of $20,000, with both the award floor and ceiling set at $20,000, indicating a fixed-size award rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The program is associated with CFDA 15.653 (National Outreach and Communication Program). Key dates show the posting and creation date as July 26, 2014, an original and current closing date of August 4, 2014, and an archive date of September 25, 2014. For additional details, the notice points to Grants.gov and lists a USFWS contact: Marla Trollan (Project Officer) at 303-236-4510 and marlatrollan@fws.gov.
