The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) offers competitive federal financial assistance through the Recovery Implementation Fund. This grant supports states, other federal agencies, landowners, educators, non-profit organizations, and researchers in their efforts to conserve endangered, threatened, or candidate species and their ecosystems. Funding is specifically for projects that secure vital information, aid in species recovery, and help prevent species listings under the Endangered Species Act. Projects must align with approved recovery plans, 5-year status reviews, or spotlight species action plans, or document species’ response to climate change. The initiative focuses solely on FWS-managed species, aiming to prevent extinction and achieve delisting through targeted restoration and research efforts.

| Description: | The FWS Endangered Species Program provides Federal financial assistance on a competitive basis to states, other Federal agencies, landowners, educators, non-profit organizations, researchers, and other partners to secure information about endangered, threatened or candidate species, to aid in the recovery of these species, to avert listing of species pursuant to the Endangered Species Act, and to help conserve the ecosystems upon which these species depend. This funding opportunity uses FWS Regional and Field Office discretionary funding, if available. The amount of actual funding available will vary from year to year. Funding may not be available every year in each Regional or Field Office. The FWS and National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), which is part of the Department of Commerces NOAA Fisheries office, share Endangered Species Act responsibilities for several species such as sea turtles. We have responsibility for sea turtles when they are on land, and NMFS has responsibility for sea turtles when they are in the water. Projects for NMFS-managed species are not included in this funding opportunity.This Recovery Implementation funding opportunity is intended for projects that will contribute to the recovery of FWS-managed endangered and threatened species in the United States, and is limited to projects carrying out actions described in a species approved recovery plan, in the implementation schedule of a species approved recovery plan, actions recommended in a completed 5-year status review of the species or in a spotlight species action plan, or projects documenting species response to climate change. For example: securing scientific information about endangered or threatened species, implementing restoration actions that will lead to delisting of a species, help prevent extinction of a species, or aid in the recovery of a species. Projects that address species response to climate change will receive additional consideration. |
