The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is offering this grant to the Canadian Wildlife Service to enhance monitoring capabilities for breeding waterfowl in the Interior of British Columbia. This grant is for the purpose of supporting the annual breeding waterfowl survey, which generates crucial population estimates for various ecosections and the entire survey area. These estimates are then utilized to support the harvest strategy for western mallards and to inform the setting of duck harvest regulations within the Pacific Flyway portion of the United States. This funding initiative aims to bolster crucial data collection that directly impacts waterfowl conservation and management efforts across North America. This is a notice of intent to award a grant, not a request for competitive proposals.
