Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Reclamation, Mid-Pacific Region, announced its intent to make a single discretionary grant award under the opportunity titled "Developing a Stewardship Management Framework for the Klamath Basin" (Funding Opportunity Number R13AS20017). The project is framed as a watershed and natural resources effort connected to the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (CFDA 15.517). The stated goal is to build the underlying "infrastructure" needed for an adaptive management, watershed stewardship framework that can help agencies and partner organizations carry out water quality program implementation across the Klamath Basin. In practical terms, the grant is aimed at strengthening the organizational and management structure that supports coordinated, basin-wide stewardship and water quality work, rather than funding a large construction project or a broad competitive research program.
A key feature of this notice is that it is a Notice of Intent (NOI) to award specifically to the Klamath Watershed Partnership. Although the listing includes a broad range of potential eligible applicant types (for example, individuals, local and state governments, tribal governments, special districts, and for-profit entities), the eligibility note clarifies that the requirement is being posted as an NOI to award to that named organization. The announcement also emphasizes that it is not a request for competitive proposals, meaning the government is signaling a planned noncompetitive award rather than opening a competition among multiple applicants.
Funding details indicate an estimated total of $50,000, with an award ceiling of $50,000 and an award floor of $0, and the agency indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity anticipated one award. Important dates show it was posted and created on April 15, 2013, with a closing date of April 29, 2013, and an archive date of April 30, 2013. The notice references Departmental Manual authority (505 DM 2, paragraph 2.14(B)(1) and (4)) as the basis for the government to proceed without competition, and it states that the decision not to compete is solely within the government's discretion.
Administrative requirements and contact information are also provided. The System for Award Management (SAM) applies to the announcement, and interested parties are directed to SAM.gov for registration information. For questions or help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Judy A. Hudson, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by email at jhudson@usbr.gov.
