Opportunity Summary:

The "2014-2015 Walker Lane Lateral Irrigation Control Structure Rehabilitation Project" (Funding Opportunity Number R14AS00058) is a Bureau of Reclamation discretionary grant notice under CFDA 15.519, Indian Tribal Water Resources Development, Management, and Protection. The notice is specifically a public announcement of the agency's intent to provide funding and is not a request for applications. In other words, it is meant to document that Reclamation plans to award financial assistance without full and open competition, rather than invite multiple applicants to submit proposals.

The intended recipient is the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes, a federally recognized tribal government, for work connected to the Duck Valley Indian Reservation Irrigation Project. The project focus is practical irrigation-system rehabilitation and maintenance to improve water delivery to irrigated farm tracts on the reservation. The planned activities include rehabilitating irrigation control structures, removing obstructive vegetation such as willows and sagebrush, rerouting the Walker Lane Lateral, and re-ditching another lateral. Collectively, these tasks are geared toward restoring or improving the functionality of the irrigation laterals and associated control features so water can be conveyed more reliably and efficiently to agricultural users.

The funding amount is estimated at a total of $160,000, with an award ceiling of $160,000 and no stated minimum award amount (award floor listed as $0). The announcement indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide a required non-federal match as a condition of the award. The opportunity is categorized under agriculture, environment, and natural resources, reflecting the intersection of irrigation infrastructure, land management, and water-resource stewardship.

Key dates show the notice was posted and created on June 30, 2014, with a closing date of July 14, 2014, and an archive date of July 15, 2014. Even though it includes a closing date, the substance of the notice makes clear it is not competitive and is primarily intended to provide transparency about the planned non-competitive financial assistance action.

For additional details, the announcement points to Grants.gov as the information source. The listed contact for access issues is Lisa Strong, Financial Assistance Officer at the Bureau of Reclamation, reachable at 208-378-5138 or lstrong@usbr.gov.
