Opportunity Information: Apply for OIA BTS2023
The OIA Brown Treesnake Program 2023 funding announcement (Funding Opportunity Number: OIA BTS2023) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior under CFDA 15.875. It is designed to support practical, on-the-ground efforts that keep the brown treesnake (BTS) from spreading beyond Guam to other islands and jurisdictions. The program focuses on actions that reduce the risk of accidental transport and establishment of BTS in new locations, recognizing that preventing spread is far less costly and far more effective than trying to eradicate a population after it becomes established.
Funding under this announcement is intended for interdiction work, meaning projects that stop snakes from being moved through cargo, transportation hubs, or other pathways. It also supports early detection and rapid response activities, which generally include surveillance, monitoring, and readiness efforts so that if a snake is detected in a new area, partners can respond quickly before it becomes a reproducing population. In addition to these operational and technical activities, the announcement also includes outreach and education as an allowable focus, with the goal of informing the public and key stakeholder groups about BTS risks, reporting procedures, and prevention practices. The scope is broad enough to include other interdiction-related projects that strengthen prevention systems, improve coordination, and enhance response capability.
Eligibility is restricted. Applicants must be members of the Brown Treesnake Technical Working Group, a defined group that includes (but is not limited to) representatives from the Government of Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the State of Hawaii, and relevant Federal agencies. The eligibility limitation is tied to the applicable federal grants framework referenced in the announcement, including requirements consistent with 2 CFR 200 (the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards). In practical terms, this means the opportunity is not open to the general public or to organizations that are not part of the Technical Working Group structure.
Key administrative details include an original closing date of March 17, 2023, with the opportunity created on October 3, 2022. The funding instrument is a grant. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0 and does not specify the expected number of awards in the provided source fields, which typically indicates that prospective applicants would need to rely on the full announcement text or agency guidance for specifics on funding levels, project periods, and anticipated award volume. Overall, the opportunity is aimed at coordinated, prevention-focused projects led by established BTS partner agencies and working group members, emphasizing interdiction, public outreach, and rapid-response capacity to protect other islands from BTS introduction.Apply for OIA BTS2023
