Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Conveyance of Water to Gray Lodge Wildlife and Construction Improvements" is a continuation cooperative agreement action from the Bureau of Reclamation, Mid Pacific Region, tied to CFDA 15.512 under the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (Title XXXIV). Rather than announcing a broad competitive solicitation, the notice indicates Reclamation's intent to issue a modification to an existing cooperative agreement (R10AC20559) with the Biggs West Gridley Water District (BWGWD). In practical terms, this means the agency is continuing or expanding previously authorized work with the same partner to carry the project forward through additional phases.
The underlying effort is referred to collectively as the "Gray Lodge Water Supply Project" and includes multiple studies along with successive phases of design leading to implementation. The central purpose is to modify and expand roughly 17 miles of BWGWD's existing water conveyance system. The improvements are aimed at maintaining and strengthening the district's ability to deliver a firm and reliable water supply with suitable water quality to the boundary of the Gray Lodge Wildlife Area using BWGWD facilities and conveyance infrastructure. The focus is not simply on new construction, but on system-level upgrades that support dependable delivery over time, which is especially important for wildlife area water management needs.
Funding details in the notice list an estimated total of $5,500,000, with an award ceiling of $5,500,000 and no stated minimum (award floor of $0). The opportunity anticipates a single award, consistent with the intent-to-modify structure and the specified partner. No cost sharing or matching requirement is identified. Eligibility is listed as "special district governments," aligning with BWGWD as the intended recipient.
Administratively, the notice references the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) requirement as applicable to the Notice of Intent to Award; CCR was the predecessor to what is now handled through SAM.gov registrations, and the notice points to www.ccr.gov for registration information as of the posting date. Key dates show the opportunity was posted July 17, 2012, with a closing date of July 31, 2012, and an archive date of August 1, 2012. For questions, the listed point of contact is Mary Sims, Grants Specialist at the Bureau of Reclamation, reachable by email at msims@usbr.gov.
