Fish and Wildlife Service

Description

This announcement solicits proposals for administration, staffing, and operations of the Central Hardwoods Joint Venture (CHJV), which is supported by funding from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS ) Southeast Migratory Bird Program. Joint Ventures are voluntary partnerships of government and non-government (e.g. private, corporate, non-profit) organizations who share a common vision for developing and implementing science-based, landscape-scale strategies for the conservation of birds and bird habitats within specific Bird Conservation Regions â¿¿ in this case, the Central Hardwoods. Joint Ventures are guided by a Management Board, employ staff who help coordinate attention to the partnership's goals and objectives, and typically have several ad hoc and standing technical working groups that collaboratively develop the tools, products and information that guide the Joint Venture's technical activities.

Who can apply

• State governments
• Public and State controlled institutions of higher education
• Native American tribal governments (Federally recognized)
