About this opportunity

The Fish and Wildlife Service, (hereinafter referred to as the “Service”) Headquarters Region 7 intends to award a single source Cooperative Agreement to the Pennsylvania State University as authorized by 505 DM 2.14.B. This notice is not a request for proposals and the Government does not intend to accept proposals. Award will be made 15 days after this notice. The purpose of this document is to provide written justification and notice of intent to award cooperative agreement number 70181AJ111 to the Pennsylvania State University without competition based on the following criteria: Purpose: The primary purpose of this proposed project is to establish an inventory and monitoring program which would increase public awareness, understanding and ability to manage natural resources throughout periods of climate change. The assistance award will provide support for Pennsylvania State University’s (PSU) research program into the uncertain effects of climate change, specifically in environments such as found on Izembek NWR. This award will facilitate a qualified student to pursue and attain a graduate degree, producing a dissertation of new knowledge in the field. Objectives: Initially project objectives will include populating a list of species about which baseline information on ecology and population status is desired, development of methods suitable for acquiring this information in a feasible and timely manner, and finally, field test implementing the protocol on a sub-set of focal species. It is envisioned that the protocol will allow for qualitative or quantitative assessment or both, of (i) non climate-related and (ii) climate-related factors influencing population trends. This approach could be used to identify species most at risk of suffering declines due to human pressure or climate change, and target them for concentration of management and conservation efforts. Background: Per statutory mandate and agency policy each refuge within the National Wildlife Refuge System operates under a Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP), including one or more wildlife and habitat plans and/or inventory and monitoring (I&M) plan. Izembek National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) does not have an established I&M program designed to fulfill our responsibility under these policies. In addition to these policies Izembek NWR is 95% designated wilderness. The lack of baseline information in concert with wilderness status sometimes leads to state jurisdiction and public user conflicts. The proposed project would supply an I&M program fulfilling our obligations to these policies as well as managing public lands to minimize user conflicts. Izembek NWR is in the focus for multiple issues including a proposed land exchange and road corridor through designated wilderness, elevated state rights land management issues, and unknown cause and effect of population trends and climate change. Concomitantly, changes in demographics have led to an increase in variety and intensity of uses of public lands. Based on this combination of factors and our inability to fulfill our responsibility to manage trust resources, we need to act now in developing an I&M program. This proposed project will implement science-based management decisions and practices. Unique Qualifications - Per statutory mandate and agency policy each refuge within the National Wildlife Refuge System operates under a Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP), including one or more wildlife and habitat plans and/or inventory and monitoring (I&M) plan. Izembek National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) does not have an established and approved I&M program designed to fulfill our responsibility under these policies. In addition to these policies Izembek NWR is 95% designated wilderness. The lack of baseline information in concert with wilderness status sometimes leads to state jurisdiction and public user conflicts.
