U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's contract dollars, traced to the source.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service · Department of the Interior

The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS), a bureau of the Department of the Interior, manages the National Wildlife Refuge System and leads federal conservation of fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats. Its ~$0.31B in FY2025 contract obligations are dominated by refuge infrastructure and facility work — design-build administrative and shop complexes, and GAOA-funded water and sewer line replacement — alongside base operations and guest-services support (remote-site BOSS at Midway Atoll, NCTC hospitality). Species and habitat recovery services, such as endangered ocelot protection, round out the top of the contract feed.

USAspending contract feed

What this monitor reads — and what it doesn't

This is the contract-signal tier: the live USAspending award feed for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service awarding sub-agency. It shows where FWS's procurement dollars go — obligations over time and the largest awards — not total budget authority, which also includes payroll, grants, and transfers. Figures reflect the contract (procurement) slice from USAspending — competed and awarded contract obligations only, not FWS's total budget authority or appropriations. The appropriation-level view lives on the Department of the Interior monitor.
