Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00431
The Eastern Tallgrass Prairie and Big Rivers Landscape Conservation Cooperative grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00431) is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (Midwest Region). It is focused on natural resources work under CFDA 15.669 and is intended to support a project connected to the Eastern Tallgrass Prairie and Big Rivers Landscape Conservation Cooperative (often referred to as an LCC). The core purpose, as stated in the notice, is to fund a specific project that was selected by the LCC Steering Committee.
This opportunity uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared with a standard grant. The notice also makes clear that this is a single-source award, meaning the agency plans to make the award without competition rather than running an open, competitive process. In practical terms, the funding is effectively targeted to a pre-identified recipient for a particular piece of work.
The intended recipient is The Conservation Fund, and the award is described as being issued to that organization based on the Steering Committee selection. While the eligibility section lists nonprofit organizations (including 501(c)(3) nonprofits and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education), the single-source nature of the announcement indicates that, for this specific award, the Fish and Wildlife Service is not seeking applications broadly and is instead proceeding with the named organization.
Funding is capped at an award ceiling of $75,000, and the agency expected to make one award. The announcement was created on August 28, 2017, with an original closing date of September 5, 2017. Overall, this notice is best understood as a formal public posting documenting the government’s intent to provide up to $75,000 via a cooperative agreement to The Conservation Fund for an LCC Steering Committee-selected project related to conservation priorities in the Eastern Tallgrass Prairie and Big Rivers landscape.Apply for F17AS00431
