Abstract: Some of the world’s most
treasured and exotic animals are
dangerously close to extinction.
Destruction of natural habitat, illegal
poaching, and pet-trade smuggling are
devastating populations of tigers,
rhinos, marine turtles, great apes,
elephants, and many other highly
cherished species. The Division of
International Conservation administers
competitive grant programs funded
under the:
• African Elephant Conservation Act
(16 U.S.C. 4201–4245).
• Asian Elephant Conservation Act of
1997 (16 U.S.C. 4261).
• Great Apes Conservation Act of
2000 (Pub. L. 106–411).
• Rhinoceros and Tiger Conservation
Act of 1994 (16 U.S.C. 5306).
• Marine Turtle Conservation Act
(Pub. L. 108–266).
• Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C.
1531 et se.) (Wildlife Without Borders
Programs—Africa, Mexico, Latin
America and the Caribbean, Russia,
Critically Endangered Species, and
Amphibians in Decline).
Applicants submit proposals for
funding in response to Notices of
Funding Availability that we publish on
Grants.gov. We collect the following
information:
• Cover page with basic project
details (FWS Form 3–2338).
• Project summary and narrative.
• Letter of appropriate government
endorsement.
• Brief curricula vitae for key project
personnel.
• Complete Standard Forms 424 and
424b (nondomestic applicants do not
submit the standard forms).
Proposals may also include, as
appropriate, a copy of the organization’s
Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement

(NICRA) and any additional
documentation supporting the proposed
project.
The project summary and narrative
are the basis for this information
collection. A panel of technical experts
reviews each proposal to assess how
well the project addresses the priorities
identified by each program’s authorizing
legislation and the associated project
costs. As all of the on-the-ground
projects are conducted outside the
United States, the letter of appropriate
government endorsement ensures that
the proposed activities will be
supportive of locally identified
priorities and needs. Brief curricula
vitae for key project personnel allow the
review panel to assess the qualifications
of project staff to effectively carry out
the project goals and objectives. As all
Federal entities must honor the indirect
cost rates an organization has negotiated
with its cognizant agency, we require all
organizations with a NICRA to submit
the agreement paperwork with their
proposals to verify how their rate is
applied in their proposed budget.
All assistance awards under these
grant programs have a maximum
reporting requirement of:
• Interim reports (performance report
and a financial status report) as
appropriate, and a
• Final report (performance and
financial status report and copies of all
deliverables, photographic
documentation of the project and
products resulting from the project) due
within 90 days of the end of the
performance period.

Request for Public Comments
We again invite comments concerning
this information collection on:
• Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary, including
whether or not the information will
have practical utility;
• The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information;
• Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
