Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number IEP1001) was a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service focused on natural resources work tied to salmon research in California. The agency issued it as a Notice of Intent to enter into a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) cooperative agreement specifically with the University of California at Davis. The core purpose was to support the maintenance and routine downloading of acoustic receivers used in a cooperative salmon survival study, meaning the funded work centered on keeping the receiver network operational and ensuring that the acoustic detection data collected in the field were retrieved and made available for study analyses.
The opportunity was structured as a single award, with exactly one expected recipient and an award amount fixed at 58,041 dollars (the award ceiling and floor were both 58,041). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award. The assistance listing tied to the program was CFDA 15.512, Central Valley Project Improvement Act, Title XXXIV, indicating the work aligned with federal efforts to improve and restore fish and wildlife resources associated with the Central Valley Project.
Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. In practice, the notice makes clear that the Fish and Wildlife Service intended to partner through the CESU mechanism with UC Davis, which is consistent with CESU agreements that often support cooperative research, technical support, and applied science services through established federal-academic partnerships. The timeline reflects a short application window: the posting and creation date were October 6, 2009, with an original and current closing date of October 20, 2009. The opportunity was later archived on November 19, 2009.
For questions or help obtaining the announcement materials, the listed point of contact was Dwight (Ike) Luginbill, Grants/Agreements Assistant at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at 209-946-6400 extension 340.
