Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Coordination, Development, and Participation in Grande Ronde Basin Anadromous Fishery Habitat Improvement" is a Bureau of Reclamation (Pacific Northwest Region) funding notice issued to inform the public that Reclamation intended to fund a specific project without full and open competition. It was not published as a call for applications and did not invite proposals from multiple applicants. Instead, the notice signaled Reclamation's plan to enter into a cooperative agreement in 2010 with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) to carry out planning, coordination, and assessment work that would set up future on-the-ground stream and habitat improvement projects in the Grande Ronde Basin, with the overall goal of benefiting anadromous fish species, including endangered and threatened stocks.

The planned work under the cooperative agreement focused on three main activities. First, ODFW would identify priority projects and specific locations across the Grande Ronde Basin where habitat conditions could be improved for at-risk fish species. Second, ODFW would coordinate with both private and public partners to encourage participation and build partnerships around those identified habitat improvement efforts, helping align landowners, local organizations, and agencies behind common restoration objectives. Third, ODFW would participate in tributary- and reach-scale assessments and habitat survey work on Catherine Creek, which is an important area within the basin for understanding limiting factors and designing effective restoration actions. Collectively, these activities emphasize early-phase restoration development: scoping, planning, coordinating, surveying, and designing, rather than immediate construction or implementation.

Administratively, the opportunity was categorized as a discretionary funding action using a cooperative agreement, indicating substantial federal involvement and collaboration during project execution. It fell under the Environment and Natural Resources funding activity category and was associated with CFDA number 15.517 (Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act). The estimated total funding amount was $197,000, which also served as the award ceiling, and Reclamation anticipated making a single award. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed. Eligibility was limited to state governments, consistent with the named partner being ODFW.

Key dates show this was a short-notice posting primarily for transparency rather than competition: it was posted on August 30, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 13, 2010, and it was archived on September 14, 2010. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the notice provided a federal contact: Lisa Strong, Grants and Agreements Specialist at the Bureau of Reclamation, reachable at 208-383-2204 or lstrong@usbr.gov.
