Opportunity Summary:

The Boat Cleaning Station at Wild Horse Reservoir opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 10SS1S033) is a Bureau of Reclamation, Pacific Northwest Region notice describing the agency's intent to fund a specific, single project that supports environmental and natural resource protection. This notice is issued as a Notice of Intent (NOI), meaning it is not a competitive solicitation and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as formal public notification that the Bureau of Reclamation plans to provide grant funding directly to the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes for the purchase and installation of a boat cleaning station at Wild Horse Reservoir.

The core purpose of the project is invasive species prevention, specifically reducing the risk of zebra and quagga mussel introduction. These mussels can spread by hitchhiking on boats and equipment moved between water bodies, and once established they can cause serious ecological damage and create expensive, long-term impacts on water infrastructure. The planned cleaning station is described as a mobile, self-contained unit designed to be quick and easy for recreational boaters to use. Boat owners would drive onto the unit, spend roughly sixty seconds washing the boat, and then drive off, creating a practical, low-friction step that can be incorporated into normal reservoir entry routines. By offering a convenient cleaning option right at the reservoir, the project is intended to protect Wild Horse Reservoir and, more broadly, safeguard Reservation reservoirs and distribution systems as well as downstream waters connected to the Columbia River Drainage.

In terms of funding details, the opportunity is categorized as a discretionary grant with an expected single award. The estimated total funding amount is $125,000, and the award ceiling is also $125,000, indicating the full project is expected to be supported up to that amount. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed. The associated CFDA program is 15.519, Indian Tribal Water Resources Development, Management, and Protection, aligning the project with Tribal water resource protection and management priorities. Eligible applicants are identified as Native American tribal governments that are federally recognized, though the NOI language makes clear the intent is to fund the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes for this specific installation rather than open the funding for broad competition.

Key dates show the notice was posted and created on June 10, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 25, 2010, and an archive date of June 26, 2010.
