Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00321

The KLAMATH BASIN ECOLOGICAL CONNECTIVITY PROJECT (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00321) is a Department of the Interior, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service discretionary funding action issued as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.664. The total federal funding amount listed is up to $60,000, with a single expected award. The notice date is July 21, 2017. Importantly, this posting is explicitly a notice of intent rather than an open competition, and it states that the opportunity has already been awarded to the Conservation Biology Institute (CBI). In other words, it functions more as public documentation of an intended/issued award than as a call for applications.

The core purpose of the project is to evaluate and map ecological connectivity across the lower and mid-Klamath Basin, focusing on northern California and potentially extending into Oregon. CBI will carry out the work in partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Yreka Fish and Wildlife Office and the Klamath Basin Strategic Habitat Conservation (SHC) Demonstration Project. The central idea is to identify which parts of the landscape currently support movement and linkage among habitats, where those connections are weak or broken, and where targeted actions could realistically improve the ability of species and ecological processes to move across the basin.

The project’s initial evaluation is framed as a “current condition” connectivity assessment. It is meant to determine the present-day status of habitat linkages and to flag priority areas where restoration, conservation actions, or other interventions could substantially improve connectivity. The work is explicitly tied to species of pre-listing conservation interest, meaning species that are of concern and may warrant conservation attention before they become candidates for formal listing decisions. Species examples provided include fisher (Pekania pennanti), Pacific marten (Martes caurina), ringtail (Bassariscus astutus), salamanders in the genus Plethodon (Plethodon spp.), and yellow-cedar (Cupressus nootkatensis), along with other potential focal species that may be relevant to the basin.

A key deliverable implied by the description is a set of connectivity findings that can be used both for near-term decision-making and as a longer-term benchmark. The opportunity emphasizes that results describing current conditions can serve as a baseline for comparison with future scenarios and future monitoring. That baseline is intended to help resource managers and partners evaluate how connectivity might change over time due to land management decisions, climate change, wildfire and post-fire effects, or other landscape-altering factors. In practical terms, the project is positioned to support more strategic, science-based habitat conservation planning by showing where maintaining or rebuilding connections could have the biggest benefit for species persistence and ecosystem resilience across the Klamath Basin.
