Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00125
The R8 (CA/NV) State Wildlife Grant Program for State Fish and Game Agencies is a mandatory federal grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (CFDA 15.634) that provides funding to state wildlife agencies to conserve wildlife and their habitats, including species that are not hunted or fished. The program is designed to support two broad types of work: conservation planning and on-the-ground implementation. Planning activities must directly contribute to developing, revising, or updating the applicant's Wildlife Action Plan that has been approved by the Director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Implementation activities, in contrast, are projects and actions that directly carry out the priorities and strategies already laid out in that approved Plan.
A central requirement of the program is that funded work must benefit Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) identified in the state Wildlife Action Plan. When deciding how to use funds, applicants are expected to consider where needs are highest, including how much other funding is already available for particular species or conservation issues. Congress has also directed an emphasis on species that are listed under the Endangered Species Act or are being considered for listing, meaning candidate, threatened, and endangered species. The program encourages states to prioritize those ESA-related species when they are included in the Plan and when focusing SWG funds on them fits the agency's priorities and operational approach.
The eligible applicant category is limited to state governments, which in practice means state fish and wildlife agencies in the Region 8 area referenced in the title (California and Nevada). The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity area is natural resources conservation. The opportunity listing shows an award ceiling of up to $2,000,000, with the posting created on March 1, 2019 and an original closing date of August 30, 2020 (noting that this closing date reflects the specific announcement and timeframe provided in the source information).
The announcement also clarifies what cannot be funded. Wildlife education and law enforcement activities are generally ineligible under this program, with a narrow exception when those components are minor or incidental and genuinely critical to the success of an otherwise eligible conservation project. Overall, the grant is structured to help state agencies plan for and implement practical conservation actions grounded in an approved Wildlife Action Plan, with a strong focus on the species and habitats most in need and special attention to ESA-listed or at-risk species when that aligns with state priorities.Apply for F19AS00125
