2015-2016 Habitat Stewardship Program for Species at Risk Call for Proposals

The Habitat Stewardship Program (HSP) for Species at Risk enables the Government of Canada to provide funding to stewards for protection and conservation activities intended to benefit the habitat of species at risk. The activities must take place on private land, provincial and Crown land, or Aboriginal land, or in aquatic environments across Canada. Now into its 16th year, the HSP is being expanded under the National Conservation Plan to provide additional incentives for a range of stakeholders to take voluntary on-the-ground stewardship actions to restore and conserve species at risk and their habitats, while also proactively preventing priority species, other than species at risk, from becoming a conservation concern. Going forward, funding under HSP will be separated into two streams: • The HSP Species at Risk (SAR) Stream will focus on species at risk recovery projects; and • The HSP Prevention Stream will focus, for the first time, on projects addressing other priority species beyond the protection and recovery of species at risk under the Species at Risk Act (SARA) to prevent them from becoming a conservation concern. The HSP program is one of several funding programs operated by Environment Canada for the recovery of species at risk or the conservation of wildlife. You can only receive funding from one federal funding program for each proposed activity. Any proposals submitted to the other federal funding programs, (e.g. Aboriginal Fund for Species at Risk, National Wetland Conservation Fund, EcoAction, etc.) must be for different activities than those listed in your HSP proposal. . Note that only federal government departments can apply to the Interdepartmental Recovery Fund.

HSP SAR Stream Expected Results and National Priorities Proposed projects must contribute to one or more of the expected results of the HSP SAR stream, which are as follows: 1. Important habitat1 for species at risk recovery is secured or otherwise protected. 2. Important habitat for species at risk recovery is improved (restored/enhanced) and/or managed to meet species’ recovery needs. 3. Threats to species at risk and/or their habitat that are caused by human activities are stopped, removed and/or mitigated. 4. Project benefits are sustained over time by engaging Canadians (landowners, resource users, volunteers) to participate directly in activities that support the recovery of species at risk. The national priorities for HSP SAR stream are projects or activities that focus on the following: • Endangered and Threatened SARA-listed species; • Protection of critical habitat; • Implementation of priority activities described in recovery strategies or action plans;

1

The program defines “important habitat” as habitat that is considered as candidate for Critical Habitat or habitat that is important for the species but that is not actually identified in a recovery strategy/action plan/management plan.

• Implementation of large-scale, multi-species recovery initiatives, involving a collaboration among multiple stakeholders/partners; • Implementation of signed Section 11 agreements which focus on contributing to legal or effective protection; • Aboriginal lands2 and associated waters; • Agricultural lands and associated waters; • Recovery actions for the Monarch (Danaus plexippus); and • Invasive species which are negatively impacting the recovery needs of species at risk.

HSP Prevention Stream Expected Results and National Priorities Proposed projects must contribute to one or more of the expected results of the HSP Prevention Stream, which are: 1. Important habitat for the target species is secured or otherwise protected; 2. Important habitat for the target species is improved (restored/enhanced) and/or managed to meet their needs; 3. Potential threats to individual target species, and/or their habitat, caused by human activities are stopped, removed and/or mitigated; and 4. Project benefits are sustained over time by engaging Canadians (landowners, resource users, volunteers) to participate directly in activities that prevent species from becoming a conservation concern. National Priorities for the HSP Prevention Stream are projects or activities that focus on the following: • Species not assessed as “at risk” by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC); • Non-waterfowl migratory bird species; • Freshwater, anadromous or catadromous aquatic species3 found on, or impacted by, activities on private lands • Implementation of multi-species initiatives, involving a collaboration among multiple stakeholders/partners; • Supporting established species and/or habitat conservation plans at the local, regional or national level; and • Supporting the enhancement of wildlife that are of socio-economic importance to local communities In terms of the National priorities, Aboriginal lands are defined as the following: Reserves and Lands set apart for the use and benefit of Aboriginal people under the Indian Act or section 91 (24) of the Constitution Act, 1867; and b) Other lands directly controlled by Aboriginal people (e.g., Métis Settlement lands, and land claim / treaty settlement lands), and lands set aside in the Yukon and Northwest Territories pursuant to Cabinet Directive, circular No.27. 3 An anadromous fish, born in fresh water, spends most of its life in the sea and returns to fresh water to spawn. Salmon, smelt, shad, striped bass, and sturgeon are common examples. A catadromous fish does the opposite - lives in fresh water and enters salt water to spawn. Most of the eels are catadromous 2

Project Eligibility Please refer to the attached 2015-2016 HSP Application Guidelines for additional information on the following, and other project eligibility details. Separate guidelines are provided for each funding stream.

Species Eligibility (differs by funding stream) HSP SAR Stream: Only projects that target species listed as Endangered, Threatened and/or of Special Concern on Schedule 1 of SARA will be eligible. HSP Prevention Stream: Projects must target species that are not listed under Schedule 1 of the SARA.

Eligible Activities • Habitat Protection through legal securement or written conservation agreements • Habitat Improvement • Human Impact Mitigation • Program Planning and Development • Surveys, Inventories and Monitoring • Project and Program Evaluation • Outreach Outreach-based activities in the HSP SAR Stream will need to clearly demonstrate how they directly engage Canadians to participate in activities that support the recovery of species at risk, as outlined in recovery strategies, action plans, or management plans for those species. Any proposed outreach or awareness-building activity will need to be framed as a necessary component of a larger project plan that is directed at achieving one or more of the expected program results. Project proposals will need to describe in detail how each outreach activity will lead to action in implementing on-the-ground species recovery, and include a plan for measuring the implementation, either within the project time-frame, or within a defined period afterward. Outreach-based activities in the HSP Prevention Stream will need to clearly demonstrate how they directly engage Canadians to participate in activities that support the direct conservation of the target species. Projects funded under the HSP SAR Stream should support the implementation of priority activities identified in recovery strategies or action plans, where these are in place or under development. For your convenience, we have included a list of Endangered and Threatened species at risk for which recovery documents are available on the SARA public registry (Annex 1). Successful proponents will be required to provide species occurrence data collected using HSP funds to either Environment Canada, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and/or their respective provincial/territorial wildlife data repository centre.

SARA Section 11 Conservation Agreements Proposals for the implementation of activities under any signed Section 11 agreement are eligible for funding consideration under the HSP SAR Steam, with preference given to specific conservation measures that effectively or legally protect the individuals, residences, and/or critical habitat of specific species at risk in a specific area. The HSP SAR Stream on-line application has been modified to accept proposals for these activities, and the same eligibility rules will apply, including matching funding. It should be noted that the following Section 11 agreement activities will not be eligible for funding under HSP SAR stream: • Development of recovery strategies, action plans and management plans; • Research projects on the species; and • Establishment of the agreement (e.g., drafting and negotiating activities).

Matching Funding (applies to both streams) Applicants must obtain matching non-federal funds (cash and/or in-kind) equal to, or greater than, 100% of the total value of the HSP contribution (calculated over the life of the project). Projects with matching contributions in excess of 100% are certainly preferred. Project contributions from federal sources should be listed in the application, but they are NOT ELIGIBLE to count towards the match calculation.

Regional Priorities 2015-2016 Regional priorities are available in the cover letters distributed with this Call for Proposals. Please contact your HSP regional coordinator for further information.

Other Application Considerations Consolidating projects and Multi-Year Funding If a proponent organization wishes to do several projects under HSP, it is encouraged to consolidate multiple, small proposals on the same target species or in the same priority area into a single, large application that outlines the different priority activities. These amalgamated projects are often carried out in multiple years because they consider the longer-term conservation outcome. In fact, multi-year project proposals are encouraged, because they help to improve conservation progress over the longer term and increase assurance of funding approval from one year to the next. Current recipients of HSP SAR multi-year funding can apply to receive additional HSP funding to undertake new and additional activities as part of their current project, by way of an amendment to their existing contribution agreement.

How to Apply to Both Streams Expressions of Interest An Expression of Interest (EOI) form allows for feedback on your project idea, and allows you to develop an application that meets your objectives and the national and regional priorities of the HSP program (template attached in Annex 2). Please refer to the 2015-2016 HSP SAR Application Guidelines or contact your HSP regional coordinator for additional information on submitting an EOI. The EOI deadline is Friday, October 10th, 2014, with the full proposal submission deadline being Monday, November 3rd, 2014. Note: taking advantage of the EOI process does not guarantee that your proposal will be successful.

Application Forms Applications to the HSP for both streams should be made online using the program’s tracking system (address below). Application Guidelines for each funding stream, provided with this call for proposals, cover basic project and proponent eligibility and a summary of project selection criteria. This document also includes an application form template, for informational purposes. The HSP online application and tracking system for both streams can be found at https://www.retablissement-recovery.gc.ca/HSP-PIH/. Interested applicants are required to contact your HSP regional coordinator to arrange access to the online tracking system (or to activate existing accounts). The HSP is managed cooperatively by Environment Canada, Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Parks Canada Agency. Thankyou for your interest in species at risk and preventing species from becoming a conservation concern. We wish you the best in your application.
