Opportunity Summary:
The DC BOOTH NFH FRIENDS PROGRAM SUPPORT opportunity is a discretionary funding award from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service designed to strengthen public-facing programs at the D.C. Booth Historic National Fish Hatchery in Spearfish, South Dakota. Built around the authority of Public Law 109-360, the National Fish Hatchery System Volunteer Act of 2006, the cooperative agreement focuses on helping a partner organization expand the hatchery's community outreach, education services, interpretive programming, and special events, while also supporting fundraising efforts tied to the hatchery's mission and visitor experience. The announcement also notes that additional funding could be added later, but only if future appropriations and funding availability allow it.
Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement (with grant characteristics), which generally means the federal agency expects to remain actively involved in the project compared to a standard grant. The funding activity areas are listed as education, environment, and natural resources, reflecting the hatchery's role as both a conservation facility and a public education site. The total estimated funding for the award is $56,000, with an award ceiling of $56,000 and an award floor of $5,000, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement.
This particular opportunity is not broadly competed. Eligibility is effectively limited because the award is being made to the Boothe Society, Inc. under the statute cited (Public Law 109-360, Section 6, Hatchery Education Program Development). The posting history shows it was originally posted January 11, 2008 with an original closing date of January 18, 2008, and later records show a current closing date of June 2, 2010 and archive date of June 3, 2010, indicating it is an older, archived announcement tied to a specific recipient and timeframe. Only one award was expected.
For assistance accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Vicki Tilden, Administrative Officer, at 303-236-4519. The notice also references an additional information link described as a website for D.C. Booth, which would typically provide background on the hatchery and related partner activities.
