Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00183
The "Asian Carp Action Plan Grants to Great Lakes States for Fiscal Year 2019 Great Lakes Restoration Initiative" (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00183) is a discretionary grant effort run by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) within the Department of the Interior. It uses Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) appropriations to fund work tied directly to the most recent GLRI Asian Carp Action Plan. The core purpose is to help protect and restore the Great Lakes and the broader Great Lakes Basin by supporting coordinated actions that prevent, control, and manage invasive Asian carp and related aquatic invasive species threats.
A key point of this notice is that it is not a competitive grant program and it is not open for general applications. Instead, USFWS issued a notice of intent to make single-source awards, meaning the agency planned to award grants directly to specific recipients without competition. The intended recipients are the Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and the Northwestern Indiana Regional Planning Commission. The notice states there is no application process, and the very short window shown in the listing (created April 11, 2019, with an original closing date of April 18, 2019) reflects the administrative timing of the notice rather than a period in which outside applicants could apply.
USFWS justified the noncompetitive approach under Departmental policy cited as 505 DM 2.14 B.(2) and (4). The practical rationale is that the funded tasks include specific activities and deliverables that only these entities can realistically carry out under the Action Plan because of their jurisdictional authorities, established operational roles, and on-the-ground responsibilities in their respective areas. The notice also explains that these awards continue ongoing work already being supported, and that forcing a competition would disrupt continuity and create a significant adverse effect on the ability to keep the activities moving without interruption. In addition, the named recipients are described as uniquely qualified due to their management authorities for Asian carp and other aquatic invasive species, their technical expertise, and their active coordination roles, including participation with the Asian Carp Regional Coordinating Committee.
The opportunity is categorized under environment, natural resources, and research and development-related activity areas, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.662. The funding instrument is a grant, with an anticipated total award ceiling of up to 6,500,000 dollars across an expected four awards. In plain terms, this was a targeted GLRI funding action designed to keep state and regional partners resourced to implement a pre-defined invasive carp strategy in the Great Lakes region, rather than a call for new proposals from a broad pool of applicants.Apply for F19AS00183
