Opportunity Information: Apply for F18AS00377
The grant opportunity titled "Lower Keys Marsh Rabbit Post-Hurricane Assessment and Recovery" (Funding Opportunity Number F18AS00377) is a discretionary funding action from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (within the Department of the Interior) intended to support post-hurricane field work focused on the Lower Keys marsh rabbit (Sylvilagus palustris hefneri) and the condition of its habitat. The core purpose is to carry out surveys after hurricane impacts, documenting the species status and assessing habitat conditions so recovery needs can be identified and addressed using current, on-the-ground data.
This notice is not a typical open competition. It is explicitly a Notice of Intent to Award to a single source, and there is no full announcement or standard application package associated with it. In other words, even though the listing shows "Eligible Applicants: Unrestricted" in a general sense, the text makes clear that the agency plans to make one cooperative agreement award to a specific recipient rather than running a broad, competitive solicitation. The opportunity indicates an expected number of awards of one, reinforcing that it is designed for a single awardee.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the Fish and Wildlife Service expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply issuing a grant and receiving reports. That can include coordination on survey design, methods, data standards, scheduling, access to sites, and integration of findings into ongoing conservation and recovery planning for the species. The activity categories tied to the opportunity include education, environment, science and technology, and other research and development, which aligns with field surveys, ecological monitoring, and related analysis that typically follow major storm events.
Key administrative details include the creation date of September 21, 2018, with an original closing date of October 1, 2018. The listing also references CFDA 15.657, which corresponds to Fish and Wildlife Service activities (often involving wildlife conservation and restoration-related assistance). The notice includes an "Award Ceiling" field showing "1," but it does not clearly present a dollar maximum in the provided text; instead, it appears to reflect the single-award, single-source nature of the action rather than a specific funding cap.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a targeted, agency-directed cooperative agreement intended to quickly support post-hurricane assessment work for a highly specific endangered subspecies and its habitat in the Lower Florida Keys, with the agency already identifying the intended award recipient and using the public posting primarily to document the intent to make that single-source award.Apply for F18AS00377
