About this opportunity
This Traditional Conservation Grant Program, announced by the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, seeks state government applicants that have entered into cooperative agreements to develop and implement programs conserving and recovering threatened and endangered species. Eligible projects directly benefit listed, candidate, at-risk, and recently delisted species through management, research, monitoring and outreach activities. A 25% non-federal cost share is required, and applications will be evaluated based on species status, recovery implementation, technical merit, and costs. Approximately $2.67 million is available to fund high-priority recovery actions addressed in finalized recovery plans, with applications due May 24, 2024 and awards announced by September 30, 2024 for up to three-year projects.
Successful applicants may receive funding to conduct conservation work for listed resident species in their states or monitor candidate, at-risk, and delisted species, with performance taking place where those species and their habitats are located in western states under the Service's jurisdiction. Projects will be supported through the Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund as established by the Endangered Species Act.
Synopsis
The principle objective of the Traditional Conservation Grant Program is to support the development and implementation of States' programs to conserve and recover threated and endangered species under the Service's jurisdiction. Financial assistance, provided in the form of grants, can be used to support projects that have direct benefits for federally listed species, candidate and at-risk species, and recently delisted species. States may apply for funding to conduct conservation work on federally-listed resident species that are included in the State's cooperative agreement. States may also apply for funding to monitor candidate, at-risk, and recently delisted species. Projects proposed for funding may involve management, research, monitoring, and outreach activities or any combination thereof. Applications should include clear and specific information about how the proposed work would contribute to species recovery or prevent the need to list a species under the Endangered Species Act. Successful applications will be those that clearly demonstrate a direct benefit to the species or its habitat.
