Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00224
The Missouri TSMD RCDP grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00224) is a discretionary cooperative agreement issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Its purpose is to support development of a Restoration and Compensation Determination Plan (RCDP) for the Missouri portion of the Tri-State Mining District (TSMD). The RCDP is intended to be prepared in accordance with the Department of the Interior Natural Resource Damage Assessment and Restoration (NRDAR) regulations, and it will build directly on earlier, related analyses and preliminary work produced during prior natural resource damage assessment efforts at TSMD sites.
The core focus of the work is planning: identifying and documenting restoration and compensation needs tied to natural resource injuries associated with the historic mining legacy in the Tri-State Mining District, specifically within Missouri. Rather than starting from scratch, the project continues an existing assessment process, using the studies, data, and prior analytical groundwork already developed. The expected period of work is approximately one and one-half years, reflecting that this is part of a longer-running technical and regulatory process rather than a short standalone project.
This notice is not a competitive funding opportunity and does not include an application process. Instead, it is a notice of intent to make a single-source award to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR). The agency explains that competition is not practical because the RCDP is a continuation of an ongoing assessment for which MDNR is the only co-trustee and has shared responsibility with DOI for the study. The single-source justification cited is 505 DM 2.14.B.2 and 4, which supports awarding without competition under specific circumstances such as unique qualifications and continuity of an ongoing effort.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning the Fish and Wildlife Service anticipates substantial involvement in carrying out the project rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The Service’s stated roles include writing selected portions of the RCDP, conducting field collection of environmental samples, and reviewing the RCDP document. This indicates a hands-on federal partner role in both the technical inputs (like sampling) and the development and quality control of the final planning document.
Key administrative details include an award ceiling of $40,000, an expectation of one award total, and a creation date of May 22, 2017 (with the original closing date listed as May 29, 2017, though the notice specifies there is no application process because it is a single-source intent to award). The opportunity is categorized under environment, natural resources, and research and development (CFDA 15.658). Eligible applicants are effectively limited by the design of the action to MDNR as the intended recipient, consistent with the single-source cooperative agreement approach described in the notice.Apply for F17AS00224
