Opportunity Summary:

The Hualapai Pipeline grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R13SF30022) is a Bureau of Reclamation award from the Lower Colorado Region offered under Reclamation's Native American Affairs Technical Assistance Program. It is designed to support the Hualapai Tribe in maintaining and managing key water infrastructure on the Hualapai Reservation, with a practical focus on reducing recurring damage, cutting water loss, and improving year-round reliability of a livestock and wildlife water delivery system.

The core project objective is to reroute and then bury or otherwise cover two vulnerable sections of an existing water pipeline where it currently crosses Truxton Wash near Peach Springs, Arizona. This pipeline feeds water to more than two dozen water troughs and storage tanks used for cattle operations and for wildlife. Under current conditions, flood events in the wash frequently damage or completely wash away exposed segments of pipe, leading to repeated repairs or replacements and significant water waste. The project also addresses seasonal cold-weather impacts, since exposed portions of the line can freeze during winter, crack or burst, and create additional repair costs and avoidable losses.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, this opportunity is a discretionary grant in the Natural Resources activity category, tied to CFDA 15.519 (Indian Tribal Water Resources Development, Management, and Protection). The total estimated funding is $46,000, and the award ceiling and floor are both $46,000, indicating a single fixed award amount. Only one award was expected.

Eligibility is effectively limited because the notice states it is a notice of intent to award and no competition is being sought. In other words, this was not an open, competitive funding round; it was structured to provide a specific technical assistance grant agreement to the Hualapai Tribe for this defined pipeline protection and realignment work.

Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on August 12, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 26, 2013, and an archive date of September 25, 2013. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to provide a non-federal match for the project.

For access issues or official questions tied to the full announcement, the listed contact was Grants Officer Shawna Thompson at the Bureau of Reclamation, reachable by phone at 702-293-8570 or by email at smthompson@usbr.gov.
