Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00112
The "Regional Panels of the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00112) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) discretionary grant intended to support the work of the Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) Task Force through funding for its regional panels. The ANS Task Force was created under the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act (NANPCA) of 1990 (16 U.S.C. 4721-4728, as amended). Its overall mission is to help the United States prevent the introduction and spread of aquatic nuisance species, also widely called aquatic invasive species (AIS), while also supporting monitoring, control, research, and the sharing of information related to these species.
The ANS Task Force is co-chaired by USFWS and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). It includes 13 federal agency members and 15 ex officio members, reflecting a structure meant to bring together federal expertise and broader stakeholder perspectives. Under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) guidelines, the Task Force operates with the help of regional panels and issue-specific committees. These groups are designed to coordinate across agencies and to connect government efforts with the private sector and other North American interests, recognizing that invasive species prevention and response typically require collaboration across jurisdictions and sectors.
A central focus of this funding is the establishment and support of six regional panels. These panels are meant to convene a broad mix of stakeholders and provide balanced, regionally grounded advice to the national ANS Task Force on issues that are especially important within their respective areas. In practice, this can include helping align priorities among states, tribes, federal agencies, local partners, researchers, and industry groups; identifying regional pathways for invasive species introduction and spread; promoting consistent prevention and outreach strategies; and improving coordination on monitoring and management approaches.
From the posted opportunity details, the funding instrument is a grant under the Natural Resources funding activity category, with CFDA number 15.608. The listed award ceiling is $40,000, and the announcement anticipated six awards, consistent with the six regional panels referenced in the description. Eligibility is shown as "unrestricted," meaning it was open to a wide range of applicant types, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that might have been provided in the full notice.
Importantly, the posting also states that the recipient has already been selected and that the opportunity is not a request for applications. The original record was created February 22, 2019, and the closing field reflects that the competition was not open at the time of posting (or was already concluded). In other words, the listing functions more as a public notice of an award or intended award action tied to supporting the regional panel structure, rather than an active solicitation for new proposals.Apply for F19AS00112
