- Description
- This special notice seeks proposals only under and specific to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Region 7 (Alaska) based Challenge Cost Share & Science Camp Program. This is not an announcement any other Region's challenge cost share and science camp program. This fulfills the public announcement and synopsis requirement for this program in Region 7 (Alaska) only. The Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), National Wildlife Refuge System, administers the Service's Challenge Cost Share program. Challenge Cost Share (CCS) funds are congressionally appropriated monies designated for the protection and conservation of wildlife resources. This is a federal matching funds program which leverages federal dollars with non-federal sources. In addition to money, these federal dollars can be matched with in-kind valuation assigned to non-federal contributions such as labor, equipment use, material and supplies. The non-federal matches may be contributed by State and local governments, private individuals, private organizations, business enterprises, and charitable groups. Service policy dictates that no more than 50 percent of the total cost to implement the project may come from federally funded sources. Explicit funding for the CCS program has been authorized by Congress since 1988. The Refuge System Administration Act authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to administer this program. The CCS program encompasses awards made through both federal assistance and procurement instruments (contracts). This "call for proposals" is the single designated annual competition through which multiple awards will be made. A twin posting of this call for proposals # 701814R005 has been posted on http://www.grants.gov and on http://www.r7.fws.gov/nwr/visitor/grants.htm Alaska's National Wildlife Refuge System Office manages Alaska's Fish and Wildlife Service CCS program.
