Opportunity Summary:
The Battle Creek Salmon and Steelhead Restoration Project grant opportunity is a federal funding action from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Mid-Pacific Region) intended to support fisheries habitat restoration work in California, specifically focused on improving conditions for salmon and steelhead in the Battle Creek watershed. The funding is being issued under CFDA 15.512 (Central Valley Project Improvement Act), authorized by Public Law 102-575, Section 3406(b)(1). The opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means Reclamation expects substantial involvement in the project alongside the recipient rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant with minimal federal participation.
This action is described as continuation funding with an expected single award, and the intended recipient is the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), making it effectively a directed award rather than an open competition. The estimated total funding amount is $497,808.25 (listed as $497,808 in the source fields), with an award ceiling equal to that amount and no stated minimum award (award floor of $0). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, and eligibility is limited to state governments, which aligns with the intention to award directly to DWR.
The work being funded covers engineering and technical support services connected to construction contracts for the project. Reclamation’s assistance is intended to span multiple stages tied to those construction efforts: pre-award support, post-award support, and post-construction phases. The statement of work centers on fish passage and protection infrastructure, specifically the fish screen and fish ladder components and their associated features for Phase 1A. Phase 1A includes two project sites: the North Battle Creek Feeder Diversion Dam and the Eagle Canyon Canal Diversion Dam. In practical terms, this kind of scope usually includes design support, review and coordination, engineering oversight, technical documentation, and construction-phase technical services to ensure the fish screens and ladders meet performance, safety, and biological objectives.
Although the notice appears in a grants listing format with posting and closing dates (posted June 29, 2010; closing July 14, 2010; archived August 13, 2010), it explicitly states that it is not a request for competitive proposals. The government also notes that its decision not to compete the award is based on Departmental Manual 505 DM 2, paragraph 2.14(B)(2) and (4), and that this determination is solely within the government’s discretion. Anyone with questions is directed to the listed grants officer/contact, Mary Sims, at msims@usbr.gov.
