Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00053
The Fish and Wildlife Coordination and Assistance grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00053) is a discretionary grant announced by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service. It falls under CFDA 15.664 and is categorized within Natural Resources as well as Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The main purpose of this funding is to support work aimed at preventing and responding to the spread of white-nose syndrome, a serious wildlife disease affecting bats, and to improve bat survival through coordinated research efforts and strong communication among relevant partners.
A key feature of this notice is that it is a single-source (sole source) award, meaning the agency plans to fund a specific recipient without an open competition. The announcement explicitly states it is a notice of intent to award a sole source financial assistance grant and that no additional applications are being accepted. In practical terms, this is not a call for proposals where multiple organizations can apply; it is a formal public notice that the Service intends to make a non-competitive award to support a defined set of activities tied to white-nose syndrome prevention, response, research coordination, and information-sharing.
The eligible applicant type listed is nonprofits that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education. However, since the opportunity is being issued as a sole source action with no additional applications accepted, the eligibility category is mainly informational and reflects the type of organization associated with the intended award rather than an invitation for new applicants to compete. The funding instrument is a grant, and the listed award ceiling is $1,000,000, indicating the maximum amount anticipated for the award under this notice. The opportunity record shows an expected awards count of 0, which commonly appears in postings like this when the listing functions as a notice rather than a competitive program forecast with multiple awards.
Timing details show the opportunity record was created on December 8, 2016, and the closing information reiterates that this is a sole source notice rather than an application-based competition. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted federal assistance action intended to resource coordinated, science-based efforts and communication strategies that help slow the spread of white-nose syndrome and support bat conservation outcomes.Apply for F17AS00053
