SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
In March 2010, we requested that
OMB approve, on an emergency basis,
our request to collect information
associated with a new grant program.
We asked for emergency approval
because of the necessity to spend
program funds this fiscal year. OMB
approved our request and assigned OMB
Control No. 1018-0144, which expires
September 30, 2010. We are going to ask
OMB to extend the approval for this
information collection for 3 years.
Section 8 of the Endangered Species
Act (16 U.S.C. 1531-43) authorizes the
establishment of the Wildlife Without
Borders-Amphibians in Decline grant
program to fund projects that conserve
the world’s rapidly declining amphibian
species. This program will support
activities that address threats to frogs,
toads, salamanders, newts, and
caecilians that face an unprecedented
threat of extinction. Funding will be
made available for conservation of
species with native ranges in countries
with the greatest need for conservation
funding.
Applicants submit proposals for
funding in response to a Notice of
Funding Availability that we publish on
