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 and Division 

of Scientific Authority administer 

competitive grant programs funded 

under the following authorities: 

• 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 (16 U.S.C. 85). 

• Rhinoceros and Tiger Conservation 

Act of 1994 (16 U.S.C. 5306). 

• Marine Turtle Conservation Act (16 

U.S.C. 82). 

• Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 

1531 et seq.) (Wildlife Without Borders 

Programs—Africa, Mexico, Latin 

America and the Caribbean, Russia, 

Critically Endangered Species, 

Combatting Wildlife Trafficking, and 

Amphibians in Decline). 

Applicants submit proposals for 

funding in response to Notices of 

Funding Opportunity published by the 

Service on Grants.gov. We collect the 

following information: 

• 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: 

• An interim report (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. 

In accordance with DOI/FWS Policy, 

FWS Form 3–2338, ‘‘International 

Conservation Programs Cover Page) has 

expired and been replaced by the 

Standard Form 424 for all applicants to 

all of our programs. Accordingly, this 

collection is being revised to remove 

FWS Form 3–2338 which is no longer 

used. 

Title of Collection: International 

Conservation Grant Programs. 

OMB Control Number: 1018–0123. 

Form Number: None. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Domestic and nondomestic individuals; 

nonprofit organizations; educational 

institutions; private sector entities; and 

State, local, and tribal governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Respondents: 744. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 1,272. 

Estimated Completion Time per 

Response: 22 hours for grant 

applications and 40 hours for grant 

reporting. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 38,856. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

Obtain or Retain a Benefit. 

Frequency of Collection: On occasion. 

Total Estimated Annual Nonhour 

Burden Cost: None. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number. 

The authority for this action is the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
