Alaska Native Organization Co-Management Funding Program: The National Marine Fisheries Service's (NMFS) recognizes the unique importance of marine mammals to Alaska Native Organizations (hereafter ANOs) and values ongoing efforts by Alaska Native Tribes and ANOs to conserve and protect species under NMFS' jurisdiction. Pursuant to 16 U.S.C. 1388, NMFS may provide Federal assistance to ANOs to conserve marine mammals, and to promote co-management of Alaska Native subsistence use of such mammals under NOAA's jurisdiction. This assistance, provided in the form of cooperative agreements, can be used to support conservation of marine mammals utilized for subsistence purposes by Alaska Natives. Funded activities may include development and implementation of species management, subsistence harvest monitoring, subsistence harvest sampling, scientific research, and public education and outreach. Proposals should address priority actions identified in an Endangered Species Act Recovery Plan or Marine Mammal Protection Act Conservation Plan where applicable and the priorities identified within this federal funding opportunity. Tribally-Authorized Alaska Native Organizations with a signed Agreement for co-management with NMFS are eligible to apply under this solicitation. Proposals focusing on marine mammals under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will not be considered for funding under this grant program.

Additional Information on Eligibility
Eligible Alaska Native Organization (ANO) applicants must have an existing marine mammal co-management agreement with the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and be in "good standing" with NMFS.

Progress and financial reports on current Federal assistance awards are up to date and/or completed in a timely manner. 3). Satisfactory past performance. 4).

The ANO will be the lead entity/organization of the consortium. Any Alaska Native Organization not holding an existing co-management agreement with NMFS may collaborate with and apply as a sub-recipient under an eligible applicant (i.e., another ANO) for this program.
