The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Pacific Regional Office in Portland, Oregon is seeking a highly qualified individual to fill a critical position that oversees endangered species grants administered through the Service’s Endangered Species Program. Although the mix of grants may change over time, this position currently is responsible for administering Endangered Species Act (ESA) section 6 grants funded through the Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund (CESCF). ESA section 6 grants currently include: (1) Traditional Conservation Grants, (2) Recovery Land Acquisition Grants (RLA), (3) Habitat Conservation Planning Land Acquisition (HCPLA) Grants, and (4) Habitat Conservation Plan Planning Assistance (HCPPA) Grants. These grants provide financial assistance to States, Territories, and others to conserve or restore habitat and to recover species listed under the ESA, or to help prevent future listing of proposed, candidate, or other at-risk species. These grant programs are critical to the Service’s mission as it relates to working with others for the conservation of our fish, wildlife and plants and their habitats. This position may also participate in all other issues pertaining to the recovery program including recovery planning, recovery implementation, recovery permitting, and the ultimate goal of the ESA — delisting of species due to recovery.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Sarah Hall, Recovery Program Manager, at 503-231-6868.
Thank you.
