Opportunity Summary:
The Boating Infrastructure Grant Program (Tier 1 and Tier 2), FY 2013, Round 2 is a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.622 (Sportfishing and Boating Safety Act). The program is designed to help states improve boating access and services by funding the construction, renovation, and maintenance of boating infrastructure that specifically serves transient recreational boaters operating non-trailerable vessels that are 26 feet long or longer. In practical terms, this program targets facilities that support larger recreational boats traveling away from their home ports, with an emphasis on short-term or stopover use rather than long-term moorage.
This opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00110) made an estimated total of $6,400,000 available nationwide, with an expectation of about 12 awards. Individual awards could be as small as $1 and as large as $1,500,000, indicating the program could accommodate both very small project components and major infrastructure investments depending on project scope and state priorities. Because the award instrument is a grant, the funds are intended to support eligible public-purpose boating infrastructure projects carried out by state government applicants rather than private entities applying directly to the federal government.
Eligibility for submission is limited to state governments. The opportunity also includes a cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning federal funds are not intended to cover 100% of project costs and participating states must contribute an eligible non-federal share according to program rules. Projects funded through this program generally focus on capital improvements and related work that make it easier and safer for qualifying transient vessels to access docks, mooring, tie-up space, and supporting marina facilities. While the announcement summary does not list specific eligible facility types in detail, the stated purpose clearly centers on building, improving, or maintaining infrastructure that directly serves visiting, larger recreational vessels and improves the overall boating network available to them.
The funding opportunity was posted and created on March 11, 2013, with an application deadline (original and current closing date) of May 10, 2013. The archive date is June 9, 2013, which reflects that this specific round is no longer active, but the details remain useful for understanding the program structure, typical award sizes, and the federal agency’s priorities for boating infrastructure. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, consistent with the program’s role in supporting recreational boating access and related public resource use.
For applicants or stakeholders who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed federal contact for this round was Paul Van Ryzin, Grants Specialist at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at 703-358-1849.
