Opportunity Summary:

The Las Vegas Wash Coordination Committee Program Management opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R10SF30013) is a continuation cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region, under CFDA 15.540 (Lake Mead/Las Vegas Wash Program). The purpose is to fund ongoing program management and support activities for the Las Vegas Wash Coordination Committee (LVWCC), a long-running collaborative body made up of about 30 stakeholders that has been meeting for more than a decade to coordinate actions related to the Las Vegas Wash and the broader Lake Mead/Las Vegas Wash program area.

The core of the work centers on maintaining and operating the LVWCCs established, transparent administrative approach, led through the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA), using an adaptive management process. In practical terms, the funded activities are meant to keep the committees public, multi-stakeholder process functioning smoothly by enabling information exchange, organizing and convening forums for discussion and debate, and supporting the development of management decisions and other coordinated actions. The announcement emphasizes that, at a minimum, the award will provide a range of internal and external administrative and technical support services to sustain the LVWCC process, rather than focusing on a single construction or on-the-ground restoration project.

Funding is fixed at an estimated total of $483,745, with the award ceiling and floor both listed as $483,745, and the agency anticipated making one award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated. The posting date is September 2, 2010, with a closing date of September 16, 2010, and an archive date of September 17, 2010.

A key eligibility and competition detail is that this notice is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice of Reclamations intent to fund the specified project activities without full and open competition. In other words, it functions more like a sole-source or noncompetitive continuation notice than a grant competition open to new applicants.

For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed point of contact is Shawna Thompson, Grants Officer, at 702-293-8570 or smthompson@usbr.gov.
