The Region 6 US Fish and Wildlife Service Fisheries Program is offering this grant to support initiatives focused on preventing and controlling aquatic invasive species across Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, and Kansas. This grant is for projects that aim to minimize or remove the impacts of aquatic species posing the highest risks to native ecosystems and federal trust species. Proposals may include assessment, planning, prevention, control programs, research on effects or development of eradication tools, and outreach/education efforts. Projects should demonstrate ecological benefits, scientific soundness, feasibility, and cost-effectiveness. The grant seeks to foster collaborative interagency efforts, reduce invasive species populations, improve partnerships, and decrease duplication, aligning with the USFWS Fisheries Program Vision.

| Description: | The Region 6 US Fish and Wildlife Service Fisheries Program and its partners recognize that we share responsibilities for preventing and controlling the impacts of aquatic invasive species on fish and other aquatic resources, and success is contingent on partnerships that cut across jurisdictions. Region 6 covers the states of Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, and Kansas. Proposals will only be considered for projects within these states, or as related to the Western Regional Panel on Aquatic Invasive Species and/or the 100th Meridian Initiative, which are coordinated in part by Region 6 Fisheries.Proposals may include but are not limited to: assessment, planning and coordination; prevention and control programs; research to understand or determine Aquatic Invasive Species effects, risk or spread; research to develop control or eradication tools; and Outreach and Education efforts intended to produce a change in behavior that will curtail spread of invasive species. This includes a process to fund State Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) Management Plans officially approved by the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force and authorized by the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990. Project ranking criteria include: ecological benefits for Federal trust species, minimizing or removing impacts of aquatic species posing highest risks to native species or ecosystems, current scientific knowledge and proven technology, and addressing objectives outlined in approved federal, state, regional, tribal or species aquatic nuisance species control and management plans. Projects will also be evaluated for their biological and statistical soundness, feasibility, geographic scope of applicability, and cost effectiveness. Benefits of collaborative interagency efforts and partnerships for aquatic resources will be: reduced impacts of invasive species and/or reduced invasive species populations, and improved partnerships and decreased duplication of efforts. Activities will be consistent with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Fisheries Program Vision.Significance: The extent to which the project, if successfully carried out, will make and original and important contribution to the Fish and Wildlife Service Mission and the public.Approach: The extent to which the concept, design, methods, analyses, and technologies are properly developed, well-integrated, and appropriate to the aims of the project.Feasibility: The likelihood that the proposed work can be accomplished within the proposed budget by the technical staff, given their experience and expertise, past progress, available resources, and institutional/organizational commitment. Note any unusually high or low cost-effectiveness.All questions are to be submitted in writing to the contact listed below. The Opportunity Number must be in the subject line.For Project Proposal and Budget Narrative instructions please click on “Full Announcement” above. |
