Opportunity Information: Apply for F25AS00290
The FY 2025 Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund – Traditional Conservation Grants Program (Region 6), known as opportunity number F25AS00290, provides financial support to U.S. States and Territories that have entered into a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) under section 6(c) of the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The goal is to help conserve and recover species listed as threatened or endangered, as well as candidate species, eligible unlisted species, and those recently delisted (within the past five years).
States can apply for funding to implement conservation activities for federally listed resident species covered under their cooperative agreements. Efforts may include management, research, monitoring, or outreach. Proposals must clearly show how the project will directly benefit the species or its habitat, contribute to recovery, or reduce the need for future ESA listing.
While only qualifying State agencies can apply directly, local organizations and individuals may participate as subgrantees through partnerships with eligible State agencies.
All proposed work must align with approved or draft species recovery plans and be based in the United States. Projects requiring activities like capturing or relocating wildlife may require permits and potentially an Environmental Assessment.
Funds cannot be used to fulfill regulatory obligations under other ESA provisions or for land acquisition. Pre-award costs may be reimbursed if necessary and pre-approved. Continuation projects must include prior accomplishments and clear justification for continued support.
In summary, this grant supports voluntary, State-led projects aimed at the conservation and recovery of endangered and at-risk species, with strict requirements ensuring alignment with broader conservation strategies overseen by FWS.Apply for F25AS00290
