Additional Information

Agency Name:: Fish and Wildlife Service
Description:: The Black Duck Joint Venture (BDJV) is a partnership-based conservation program under the North American Waterfowl Management Plan that promotes the conservation of Black Ducks by providing greater knowledge for effective management. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (hereafter Service), a partner in the BDJV, administers grants and purchase orders on a competitive basis for projects/studies that advance both our and the general scientific community’s understanding of Black Duck ecology and is seeking proposals from interested parties. The BDJV will accept proposal addressing any aspect of black duck ecology and management, but proposals that address priority research needs (see attached) will have a greater probability of funding. The BDJV is receptive to funding annual projects as well as a limited number of multi-year (up to 4 years) projects. Successful multi-year projects will be funded in 1-year increments, subject to annual review, demonstration of suitable progress, and availability of funds. After 4 years of consecutive funding, those projects may reapply and compete for BDJV funds in one-year increments only and they will be re-evaluated based on their continued merit.

Applications are encouraged from nonprofit organizations, public and private educational organizations, federal, state, provincial, local, and tribal governments and organizations, foreign governments, and individual companies.

To be competitive for funding, proposals should include both cash match and in-kind support. Currently the only source of general funding for the BDJV is U.S. Congress-appropriated funds directed to USFWS for BDJV use – we are expected to demonstrate effective leveraging of these funds, preferably with non-U.S.-federal resources. Proposals citing a match contribution which has its origin from other US Government Federal awards will be ranked less competitively than proposals citing a match funded through non- federal (i.e. not originally US Government in origin) funds.

Proposal submission must be completed electronically via email to the contact listed below by midnight Eastern Standard Time February 1, 2013. All proposals should include the budget (and associated budget tables) and a completed Standard Form (SF) 424. The SF 424 can be obtained (as a word document) on the grants.gov website. The Government does recognize that some applicants may not have access to email and in those cases we will accept proposals by fax or mail provided they are postmarked by midnight Eastern Standard Time February 1, 2013. Should you wish to submit a proposal via fax or mail service, you MUST call the contact listed below prior to close of business February 1,
2013 (5:00 pm Eastern Standard Time) to inform them that you have submitted a proposal as a fax or via standard mail. Please keep in mind that the recommended proposal submission process is via email to prevent unwanted delays to other vendors proposals being considered for evaluation. Proposals submitted later than midnight Eastern Standard Time February 1, 2013 will not be considered for evaluation. It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure Service receipt of their proposal by the deadline. The Service bears no responsibility for misplaced or mishandled proposals when the applicant did not alert the Service to the incoming proposal and method of transmission prior to the submission deadline.

Applications will be evaluated and scored by the BDJV Technical Committee during their February 2013 meeting. A suite of proposals receiving the highest scores will be recommended to the BDJV Management Board for funding approval in March 2013.

It is important for applicants to review the evaluation criteria that will be used to score proposals received. Criteria have been organized into 4 categories. A score of 0-10 (0 being lowest and 10 highest) is assigned to each criteria multiplied by its weight. Next the weighted scores are summed to calculate an overall score.

Award notices will be provided to all applicants by email, mail, or phone during April 2013. Notice of a successful proposal is not an authorization to begin per- formance (pre-award costs are incurred at the recipient’s risk). A purchase order or grant contract signed by a USFWS warranted contracting officer and a formal Notice to Proceed will constitute authorization to begin performance.
