Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00049
The Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00049) is a discretionary funding notice from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (specifically the Service's Southwest Region, Region 2) describing the agency's intent to make a cooperative agreement award related to environment and natural resources work. The notice was created on November 26, 2018, with an original closing date of December 7, 2018, and it lists an award ceiling of $77,000 with one expected award.
A key point is that this announcement is not a competitive solicitation. It is a formal Notice of Intent to Award a single-source (noncompetitive) financial assistance agreement to Texas State University. In other words, the government is not asking for applications from other organizations and does not plan to accept or review proposals under this posting. The agency is publicly documenting that it plans to make the award directly to the named institution rather than running an open competition.
The funding instrument identified is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the Fish and Wildlife Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared to a standard grant. The authority cited for using a single-source approach is 505 DM 2.14(B)(4), indicating the agency is relying on an internal policy/administrative basis to justify awarding without competition.
The listing also includes general eligibility information showing the relevant applicant class as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and it references CFDA number 15.678, which corresponds to a Fish and Wildlife Service assistance program area. Even though that eligibility category is broad, the notice makes clear that the intended recipient for this specific award is Texas State University and that no other submissions are being sought.Apply for F19AS00049
