This Single Source Award is being awarded in accordance with Department of the Interior Policy 505 DM 2.14 B [(2) Continuation. The activity the award will fund is necessary for the satisfactory completion of, or is a continuation of, an activity we are funding, and holding a competition would have a significant adverse effect on continuing or completing the already funded activity.], which allows for award without competition to an applicant. This recipient and project meet this criteria due to the fact that the recipient competed under for this work under a federal announcement and the proposal was reviewed and selected as part of that process. The funding original was granted to a partner to the project to administer the grant; however the recipient had to shift funds to their organization after the partner was unable to administer the grant.

• Estimated Total Funding:

  $49000

• Award Range:

  $49000 - $49000

Grant Description

The tasks to be performed under this agreement are as follows: This project will produce a compilation of science products from numerous agency and university led research and conservation planning efforts in landscape integrity, connectivity, and climate change impacts and responses. This compilation will inform and direct conservation action through development of properly scaled GIS data layers and discussion among science informed conservation experts and practitioners. These data will be applied to management action through the prioritization of conservation targets and actions in landscape scaled collaborative conservation projects on the ground in the Rocky Mountain corridor.
