Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00060
The Gunnison Sagegrouse Habitat Restoration grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00060) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary grant focused on restoring and improving habitat conditions that support the long-term recovery of the Gunnison sage-grouse. The central goal is to improve habitat connectivity between smaller, outlying (satellite) sage-grouse populations and the primary Gunnison Basin population. That connectivity matters because it helps reduce isolation between groups, supports healthier population structure, and promotes gene flow, which is a key factor in maintaining genetic diversity and overall species viability over time.
The work described in the opportunity is practical, on-the-ground habitat restoration within Gunnison sage-grouse habitat. A major component is mechanically treating areas where pinyon and juniper trees have been encroaching into sagebrush landscapes. The emphasis is on places that still have a healthy, established sagebrush understory, meaning the project is intended to protect and reopen functioning sagebrush habitat before the tree invasion pushes it into a more degraded state. The treatment approach includes mowing and mastication, with mastication specifically planned using a Hydro-Axe to cut and process trees. In addition to live tree removal, the project also targets remnant tree skeletons left behind after fires in areas where sagebrush is already reestablishing, helping those recovering sites return more fully to suitable sagebrush conditions for the species.
Beyond vegetation treatments, the opportunity includes hydrological restoration elements such as installing "zee-dikes" or implementing other water-related restoration actions. These types of structures and activities are generally used to slow runoff, reduce erosion, and improve soil moisture conditions, which can support the resilience and productivity of sagebrush systems and associated understory plants that sage-grouse depend on for cover and food.
Administratively, this announcement is a notice of intent to make a single-source award to Colorado Parks and Wildlife under DOI policy provisions related to unique qualifications, rather than a broad competitive solicitation. The agency is the Fish and Wildlife Service, the funding instrument is a grant, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.664. The award ceiling listed is $50,000, with an expected total of five awards. The opportunity was created on December 6, 2018, and the original closing date was December 13, 2018.
A key compliance requirement is that the recipient must provide project-specific details to the Fish and Wildlife Service before initiating work so the Service can review and approve the project for National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) compliance. In practice, that means the project cannot simply proceed on a general concept; the specific treatment locations, methods, and ground-disturbing activities must be documented and cleared to ensure cultural and historic resources are appropriately considered and protected before implementation.Apply for F19AS00060
