Opportunity Summary:
The Beaver Creek Rock Weirs Modification opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R12SS10014) is a Bureau of Reclamation, Pacific Northwest Region notice explaining the agency's intent to provide funding through a cooperative agreement for a specific, already-identified project rather than soliciting proposals from the public. Even though it is presented in the format of a funding announcement, it is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as formal public notice that the Bureau of Reclamation plans to fund project activities without full and open competition, meaning the agency already has a partner in mind and is documenting that planned award.
The planned recipient and project sponsor is the Methow Salmon Recovery Foundation (MSRF), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. The relationship between Reclamation and MSRF is based on a prior cooperative agreement established in 2009, under which MSRF supported Reclamation by helping identify priority projects in the Upper Columbia Region's Methow Subbasin, securing or coordinating funding, collaborating on implementation, and assisting with work intended to restore fish passage and improve fish habitat. Building on that earlier arrangement, Reclamation intends to enter into a new cooperative agreement with MSRF focused on reconstructing three rock weirs in Beaver Creek: the Forth Thurlow, Thurlow Transfer, and Marracci weirs. The central purpose of reconstructing these structures is to improve or restore passage for threatened and endangered salmon and steelhead, while also addressing harmful impacts that have been associated with ongoing in-river maintenance and operational activities.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this is categorized as a discretionary opportunity using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, and it falls under the Environment and Natural Resources activity category. The announcement indicates an expected award count of one, consistent with the intent to make a directed award to MSRF. The total estimated funding is $81,498, and the award ceiling is also $81,498, suggesting the full amount is intended for this single project effort. The CFDA listing is 15.517 under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, and the announcement notes there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to provide matching funds as a condition of the award.
The notice was posted and created on August 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 22, 2012, and an archive date of August 23, 2012. Eligibility is listed as nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), but the practical effect of the announcement is informational because the agency is not seeking competitive applications. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact is Lisa Strong, Financial Assistance Officer at the Bureau of Reclamation, reachable by phone at 208-378-5138 or by email at lstrong@usbr.gov.
