Opportunity Summary:
The Deer Creek DCID Dam Fish Passage Project, Phase 1 (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00190) is a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) through the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CVPI) Anadromous Fish Restoration Program (AFRP), CFDA 15.648. The project focuses on Deer Creek, a tributary to the Upper Sacramento River near Vina in southeastern Tehama County, California, and is aimed at advancing fish passage improvements associated with the DCID Dam.
This Phase 1 award is intended to fund the planning and technical groundwork needed before construction or on-the-ground modifications occur. USFWS is seeking proposals to complete three core tasks. First, applicants must produce a final engineered design along with an engineer's cost estimate for the repairs and/or modifications needed to improve fish passage, with the understanding that the specific approach will be based on a preferred alternative selected by a Technical Advisory Committee. Second, the applicant is expected to develop and complete the full set of environmental compliance documents and secure any permits required for the project, which typically includes federal, state, and potentially local reviews depending on the chosen design and the work footprint. Third, proposals must include development of a Quality Control plan tied to the data collection and analysis that will support pre- and post-project monitoring, helping ensure monitoring results are consistent, defensible, and usable for evaluating project effectiveness.
The opportunity was structured as a cooperative agreement, with an estimated total funding amount of up to $100,000. The award ceiling is $100,000, with no stated award floor, and USFWS anticipated making one award. Cost sharing or matching was not required, which can make the project more accessible to a wider range of applicants. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional clarifications in the full announcement.
Key timing details show the notice was posted May 31, 2013, with an application deadline (original and current closing date) of July 1, 2013, and an archive date of December 31, 2013. A site visit was also referenced for April 14, 2013, with logistics provided to meet at 10:00 a.m. at the Red Bluff Department of Water Resources building on the north end of Red Bluff (directions from I-5 via the Adobe Road exit). The announcement also noted it may have been reposted due to earlier visibility issues.
