Opportunity Information: Apply for BOR LC 19 F001
The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Program, Yuma Area Office for FY19 (Funding Opportunity Number BOR LC 19 F001) was a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, specifically through the Lower Colorado Region, Yuma Area Office (YAO). The program was set up to support on-the-ground work tied to the YAO's Endangered Species and Environmental Restoration programs during Federal Fiscal Year 2019, covering the period from October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019. In practical terms, the opportunity sought project proposals that would help implement conservation, monitoring, habitat work, or other actions that benefit threatened and endangered species and the habitats they rely on within the geographic area served by the Yuma Area Office (the funding announcement referenced an attached map to define the covered area).
The legal and programmatic backbone of the funding was the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Program (FWCAP) and the Endangered Species Act (ESA), with an emphasis on activities conducted under ESA Section 7(a)(1). That section is the part of the ESA that directs federal agencies to use their authorities to carry out programs for the conservation of listed species. So, while the funding came through Reclamation, the intent was broader than just internal agency needs: it aimed to advance conservation outcomes for listed species and their habitat in coordination with Reclamation's responsibilities and restoration priorities in the Lower Colorado/Yuma area.
Awards under this opportunity were available in the form of grants and/or cooperative agreements, which generally means applicants could receive either a more traditional pass-through award (grant) or an award that involves more active federal involvement in the project (cooperative agreement), depending on how the work was structured. The activity category was environmental, and the assistance listing was under CFDA 15.517. The opportunity anticipated making around three awards, with an award ceiling of $50,000 per award, indicating a relatively small, project-focused funding pot intended for targeted activities rather than large, multi-year restoration builds.
The opportunity opened on February 19, 2019 and had an original application deadline of April 30, 2019. Eligibility was labeled broadly as "Others," with additional clarification expected in the full notice under an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section. In similar federal listings, that wording often signals that eligibility may extend beyond state and local governments to include entities like tribes, universities, non-profits, special districts, or other organizations that can carry out conservation and restoration work, but the precise eligible applicant types would have been defined in the full funding announcement package. Overall, the core purpose was straightforward: provide modest, competitive funding for projects that directly support threatened and endangered species conservation and habitat-related actions aligned with Reclamation's environmental restoration priorities in the Yuma Area Office region during FY 2019.Apply for BOR LC 19 F001
