Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA APHIS 10028 WSNWRC00 23 0019
USDA APHIS, through Wildlife Services (WS), offered the "Tribal Nations Wild Cervid Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) Opportunities 2023" cooperative agreement to support Federally recognized Native American Tribal governments in efforts to control, manage, and prevent chronic wasting disease in wild cervid populations such as deer, elk, and related species. The focus is specifically on activities that take place on lands that are owned or managed by Tribal entities, recognizing Tribal authority and on-the-ground responsibility for wildlife health and management within their jurisdictions.
The core purpose of the opportunity is to strengthen practical, field-based CWD work, including building or expanding surveillance systems, increasing and improving testing, and carrying out management, prevention, and response activities. In practice, this can include planning and running surveillance programs, collecting samples, coordinating laboratory diagnostics, developing response protocols for suspected or confirmed detections, and implementing management actions intended to reduce disease spread or impact. APHIS WS also notes that funding can be used to provide information or tools needed to control and prevent CWD, which often translates into capacity-building, improved procedures, and better access to equipment, training, or technical resources that support a Tribe's CWD program.
The total anticipated funding for this Tribal-focused competition was approximately $500,000. Individual proposals could request up to $100,000 each, and eligible applicants were allowed to submit multiple proposals as long as each one was submitted as a separate, complete proposal package. This structure allows Tribes to propose distinct projects or workstreams (for example, one proposal focused on surveillance and sample collection and another focused on management planning or outreach) without bundling everything into a single request.
This was a competitive discretionary funding opportunity administered as a cooperative agreement, meaning APHIS WS would generally expect substantial involvement in the funded work beyond simply issuing funds, such as technical collaboration, coordination, or other forms of federal participation consistent with cooperative agreements. The assistance listing (CFDA) number associated with the opportunity is 10.028, and the opportunity number is USDA APHIS 10028 WSNWRC00 23 0019. The application closing date listed for the original opportunity was June 12, 2023, and the opportunity was created on April 11, 2023.
Eligibility was limited to Federally recognized Native American Tribal governments, and specifically those that have regulatory oversight or direct responsibility for wild cervids. In other words, the program was designed for Tribal governments that are actively positioned to make and carry out decisions affecting wild cervid management and disease response on Tribal lands.
Finally, APHIS indicated that if the full amount of available funding was not awarded under this Tribal Nations opportunity, any remaining funds could be redirected to support projects submitted under a related program: the "Wild Cervid Chronic Wasting Disease Management and Response Activities 2023." This helps ensure that allocated CWD funds are still used for disease control and prevention work even if the Tribal-specific competition does not fully obligate the available amount.Apply for USDA APHIS 10028 WSNWRC00 23 0019
