Opportunity Summary:

The IDFG Evaluation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00025) is a discretionary grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.661, the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan. Its core purpose is to fund the development and implementation of a program that evaluates both survival and harvest outcomes for fish released into the lower Snake River, specifically in connection with Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP) facilities located in Idaho. In practical terms, the work supported by this award is aimed at measuring what happens to fish after they are released from these facilities, including how many survive over time and how many are ultimately caught in fisheries, so the effectiveness of release strategies and facility operations can be assessed with real performance data.

Funding for this opportunity is structured as a single award, with an expected award count of one. The total estimated funding is $867,838, and both the award ceiling and award floor are set at $867,838, which indicates the agency anticipated making one grant at a fixed amount rather than issuing a range of potential award sizes. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the applicant is not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award. The eligible applicant pool is limited to state governments, which aligns with the title and intent of the opportunity and suggests it was designed primarily for an Idaho state agency partner (such as Idaho Fish and Game) to carry out evaluation work tied to Idaho-based LSRCP facilities.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on November 14, 2012, with the closing date set for November 28, 2012, and it was later archived on December 31, 2012. The funding instrument type is listed as a grant, and the funding activity category is Natural Resources, Science and Technology, and other Research and Development, reflecting the applied monitoring and evaluation nature of the work. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov, and the designated contact for access or assistance was Margaret Anderson, Cooperative Agreements Specialist, reachable at 208-378-5299 or MargaretMAnderson@fws.gov.
