Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00252
The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00252) is a discretionary funding action from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service, focused on environmental work under CFDA 15.678. The project described is titled "U.S. Fish and Wildlife Refuges Threat and Vulnerability Assessment," indicating an effort to evaluate risks, pressures, and susceptibility across units of the National Wildlife Refuge System. While the public notice does not provide technical details on methods or specific refuge locations, the title strongly suggests an assessment-oriented effort meant to help the Fish and Wildlife Service understand what threats refuges face and how vulnerable they may be to those threats, which typically supports planning, prioritization, and management decision-making.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the agency expects to be substantially involved in the project during performance, rather than issuing a hands-off grant. The eligible applicant category listed is "Public and State controlled institutions of higher education," aligning with the CESU model that commonly partners federal agencies with universities to deliver applied science, analysis, and technical support. In this case, the notice explicitly states it is a Notice of Intent to make an award to The Regents of the University of California, Davis, and that no competition is expected. The notice also instructs that potential applicants should not respond, which effectively means the agency has identified UC Davis as the intended recipient and is publishing the notice for transparency rather than to solicit proposals.
The funding parameters indicate a single anticipated award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $32,000. The opportunity record was created on June 13, 2017, with an original closing date of June 27, 2017, reflecting a short public notice period typical of non-competitive intent announcements. Overall, this is a small, targeted cooperative agreement intended to support a threat and vulnerability assessment for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service refuges, issued through the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units framework and directed to a specific university recipient without an open competitive application process.Apply for F17AS00252
