Opportunity Summary:
The IDFG Operation and Maintenance grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00026) is a discretionary grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.661, the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan. Its purpose is to support Idaho Fish and Game (as a state government applicant) in developing and carrying out an operation-and-maintenance program focused on rearing Chinook salmon and steelhead trout to the smolt stage in numbers large enough to help offset fish losses in Idaho and ultimately increase returning adult fish to the Snake River basin. In practical terms, the project is about producing and managing sufficient hatchery-reared smolts so that, after migration and ocean residency, enough adults come back to the basin to compensate for losses associated with Snake River system impacts.
The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and also Science and Technology/Research and Development, reflecting that it involves both hands-on fish production and the applied biological and operational work needed to meet survival and return goals. The funding instrument is a grant, and the announcement anticipated a single award. The estimated total funding is $4,893,740, with an award floor and ceiling both set at $4,893,740, indicating the agency expected one award at a fixed amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants.
Key dates show this was a time-limited solicitation posted on November 14, 2012, with an original and current closing date of November 28, 2012, and an archive date of December 31, 2012. Eligibility is limited to state governments, aligning with the IDFG-focused operation and maintenance nature of the work and the role of state agencies in implementing fish production and compensation programs.
