Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00289
The Wyoming Species of Conservation Concern grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00289) is a discretionary funding notice from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project, such as coordinating work, providing technical input, or collaborating on deliverables rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant.
The core purpose of the opportunity is to fund work that improves the collection, compilation, analysis, and sharing of data and information on wildlife species in Wyoming that may need conservation attention. This explicitly includes species that are not listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) but are still considered conservation priorities, such as Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN). At the same time, it also covers species that are already in the ESA pipeline or protected under it, including proposed species, candidate species, and species that are listed as threatened or endangered. In practical terms, the work supported by the award is meant to strengthen the information base used for conservation planning, status assessments, and decision-making by ensuring data are gathered, organized, analyzed, and made accessible to partners who rely on them.
Administratively, the opportunity is tied to CFDA number 15.678 (a Fish and Wildlife Service assistance program category) and falls under a broader activity label of "Other," indicating it does not fit neatly into a single standard category like habitat restoration or enforcement, but instead centers on scientific and informational support activities. The posting indicates an award ceiling of $100,000 and anticipates up to five awards overall, suggesting modest, targeted projects rather than large, multi-million-dollar efforts.
Eligibility is not broadly open competition in the usual sense. The notice states it is a notice of intent to make a single-source cooperative agreement under the Great Plains Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) network to the University of Wyoming, citing DOI Policy 505 DM 2 (4) regarding "Unique Qualifications." That language typically signals the agency is justifying a direct award because the recipient has specific expertise, capacity, relationships, or infrastructure needed to carry out the work effectively, and the project is being routed through the CESU framework to support collaborative research and technical assistance.
The opportunity was created on July 3, 2019, with an original closing date of July 10, 2019, which is a very short window consistent with a notice-of-intent or single-source action rather than an open, competitive solicitation. Overall, the grant is best understood as targeted support for building and improving species conservation datasets and associated analyses in Wyoming, spanning both non-ESA conservation-priority species and ESA-listed or at-risk species, with the University of Wyoming positioned as the intended partner through the Great Plains CESU.Apply for F19AS00289
