Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Constant Fractional Marking Support at Trinity River Hatchery" is a discretionary funding announcement from the Bureau of Reclamation, Mid Pacific Region, focused on supporting ongoing fish recovery evaluation work at the Trinity River Hatchery. The agency planned to make a single cooperative agreement award to the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission to help coordinate and carry out Constant Fractional Marking (CFM) of Chinook salmon. The practical intent is to keep the marking and tagging program running smoothly by covering the core needs of implementation, including purchasing or maintaining equipment, obtaining necessary supplies, and funding personnel time required to conduct the marking and tagging activities.
The main purpose of the project is to sustain the continued implementation of CFM as a monitoring and evaluation tool for hatchery operations. Constant Fractional Marking refers to systematically marking a consistent fraction of hatchery-produced fish so that managers can later identify those fish and use the data to evaluate how hatchery practices are affecting salmon recovery. In this context, marked Chinook salmon provide measurable information that can be used to assess multiple aspects of hatchery programs, such as survival, contribution to fisheries, and broader recovery outcomes. The funding activity is categorized under "Other," with the explanation indicating it supports mitigation related to Chinook salmon and steelhead habitat, tying the work to broader mitigation and restoration responsibilities rather than a narrow research-only purpose.
Administratively, the opportunity was issued under Funding Opportunity Number R11AS20011 and is associated with CFDA 15.512, Central Valley Project Improvement Act, Title XXXIV. The total estimated funding listed for the opportunity is $726,492, while the award ceiling for an individual award is $136,836 and the floor is $0. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in the project compared to a standard grant. No cost sharing or matching requirement was indicated. The announcement timeline shows it was posted and created on March 28, 2011, with an original and current closing date of April 11, 2011, and an archive date of April 12, 2011, reflecting that it was time-limited and is now historical.
Eligibility information in the source data lists special district governments, but the description and the notice language make clear the Bureau of Reclamation intended to award this agreement to the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission, suggesting this posting functioned as a Notice of Intent to Award rather than an open competitive solicitation. For further details, applicants or interested parties were directed to consult the Notice of Intent to Award and to contact the grants specialist, Mary Sims, with questions via email at msims@usbr.gov, with additional contact information provided for assistance accessing the full announcement electronically.
