Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00285
The Migratory Bird Joint Ventures - Gulf Coast Joint Venture funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00285) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service notice describing a set of anticipated, single-source awards to support the Gulf Coast Joint Venture, a collaborative bird habitat conservation partnership that works across the coastal portions of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. The notice is explicitly labeled as "single source funding only" and "not a RFP," meaning it is not a competitive solicitation inviting proposals from the general public. Instead, it signals the agency's intent to make targeted awards to specific partners for defined needs that support the Joint Venture's conservation planning and science priorities.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and would be administered through either cooperative agreements and/or grants, under CFDA number 15.637, within the Environment and Natural Resources activity category. While the eligibility field is listed as "unrestricted" in the source data, the practical effect of the single-source notice is that the awards are intended for named recipients, with funding tied to particular scopes of work rather than open competition. The notice was created on June 27, 2017, with an original closing date of July 5, 2017, reflecting a short administrative window typical of announcements that document noncompetitive or directed funding actions.
In terms of funding scale and structure, the award ceiling is listed as $80,000, and the agency anticipates making three awards in total. The three awards correspond to three distinct support areas aligned with Gulf Coast Joint Venture objectives: (1) biological planning support staff, specifically a Biological Team Leader role, anticipated to be supported through Ducks Unlimited; (2) mottled duck research anticipated with the LSU Ag Center; and (3) plover research anticipated with the Gulf Coast Bird Observatory. Taken together, these components indicate an emphasis on strengthening the Joint Venture's capacity for biological planning and decision support, while also advancing applied research on focal bird species that are relevant to Gulf Coast conservation actions.
Overall, the notice communicates that the Fish and Wildlife Service intends to fund partner organizations that already play key roles in Gulf Coast Joint Venture delivery, focusing on staffing and research that can inform habitat conservation strategies and on-the-ground outcomes across the four-state coastal region.Apply for F17AS00285
