help GNLCC achieve our five stated conservation goals:
1. Maintain large, intact landscapes of naturally functioning terrestrial and aquatic community assemblages.

2. Conserve a permeable landscape with connectivity across aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, including species movement, migration, dispersal, life history, and biophysical processes.

3. Maintain hydrologic regimes that support native or desirable aquatic plant and animal communities in still and moving water systems.

4. Promote landscape-scale disturbance regimes that operate within a future range of variability and sustain ecological integrity.

5. Maintain large functional landscapes where local people and communities, including tribes and First Nations, can sustain their livelihood, stories, culture, and identity supported by the lands and waters, and fish and wildlife they steward.

Under these Goals, Projects must fit into one or more of the following framework for funding which will guide work from FY17-21 (See complete NOFO Template) FWS R6 reserves the right to make no awards under this announcement.

Funding amounts among these needs are not explicit; final amount awarded is at discretion of the GNLCC Steering Committee and FWS R6 Regional Director.
