Instructions: In accordance with Service policy 516 FW 6, Issuing Discretionary Grant and Cooperative Agreement Awards without Competition, complete this form to document the justification for issuing a single source grant or cooperative agreement award. This form must be signed by both a program representative and the employee with signature authority for the award to be issued (see 516 FW 3, Signature Authority for Grant and Cooperative Agreement Awards). The completed and signed form must be maintained in the official award file.

Program Contact:
Select all criteria that apply (from 505 DM 2):
(1) Unsolicited Proposal: The proposed award is the result of an unsolicited application that represents a unique or innovative idea, method, or approach that is not the subject of a current or planned award, but is found to be advantageous to program objectives.
(2) Continuation: The activity to be funded is necessary for the satisfactory completion of, or is a continuation of, an activity we are funding and holding a competition would have a significant adverse effect on continuing or completing the activity.
(3) Legislative Intent: The language in the applicable authorizing legislation or legislative history clearly indicates the intent of Congress to restrict the award to a particular recipient or purpose.
(4) Unique Qualifications: The applicant is uniquely qualified to perform the activity based on a variety of demonstrable factors such as location; property ownership; voluntary support capacity; cost-sharing ability, if applicable; technical expertise; or other such unique qualifications.
(5) Emergencies: Because of a compelling and unusual urgency, or substantial danger to health or safety, there is not enough time to follow adequate competitive procedures.
Explain below why competition for this award is not practical. As applicable, summarize the program legislative history, unique capabilities of the proposed recipient, and any cost-sharing contribution offered by the proposed recipient. Be brief and specific:
I have determined that this project meets the requirements for a single source award and recommend that it be awarded to the recipient named above.
I, as the Service employee with signature authority for this award under 516 FW 3, have reviewed this program recommendation and find that it meets the requirements for a single source award.

| offered by the proposed recipient Be brief and specific: The Southeast Conservation Adaptation Strategy (SECAS) is a conservation partnership among state fish and wildlife agencies and federal natural resource management agencies in the southeastern US. The coordination role of SECAS was performed under a previous cooperative agreement between FWS and Mississippi State University to fund a coordinator position. The person in that position has resigned, and critical elements of coordination of the SECAS initiative are currently unmet. Continuing this coordination role is of critical importance and of high priority to FWS Region 4. Continuing this work uninterrupted is important to meet coordination needs for the Southeastern Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies SECAS symposium to be held in October 2017. The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission is an essential partner in the SECAS initiative and has unique qualifications in the ability to provide technical expertise in the needed coordination role. Due to the continuation need and the unique qualifications this award meets the requirements for single source award. This proposal was unsolicited and represents a unique approach to accomplishing programmatic objectives. | |
