Opportunity Summary:
The Abernathy Creek Steelhead Weir Project (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00076) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) under CFDA 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance. The core purpose of the project is straightforward: to install and operate a weir on Abernathy Creek in support of fisheries and natural resource management work, specifically tied to steelhead monitoring and management activities associated with the site.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. In practical terms, that often involves coordination on technical approach, timing, reporting, and field operations, especially for work like installing and running a fish weir where permitting, data standards, and seasonal constraints can matter. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, aligning it with field-based conservation and management actions.
The total estimated funding for the award is $40,709, and the award ceiling is also $40,709, indicating a single award up to that amount is expected. The award floor is listed as $0, which generally means proposals could request less than the maximum, but because only one award is anticipated, the expectation is likely that an eligible applicant would propose a complete project budget within the stated cap. Cost sharing or matching is not required, so applicants are not obligated to contribute non-federal funds to be considered.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, meaning the intended applicant pool is state-level agencies or entities that qualify as part of state government. Only one award is expected, reinforcing that this is a targeted, project-specific solicitation rather than a broad competitive program with multiple recipients.
Key dates indicate the opportunity moved on a fast timeline. It was posted and created on February 7, 2013, with an original and current closing date of February 14, 2013, and an archive date of February 28, 2013. That short window suggests the agency likely had a specific partner, project readiness, or time-sensitive field season considerations driving the schedule.
