Opportunity Summary:
The Monitoring and Evaluations grant opportunity is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service through its Lower Snake River Compensation Plan Office (LSRCP). The purpose is to support coordinated work in Idaho between the Service and the Shoshone Bannock Tribe (SBT) to carry out the goals of the LSRCP, a program focused on mitigating fisheries impacts in the lower Snake River system. The opportunity is built around formal cooperation and a structured sharing arrangement, allowing an interchange of services, staff, equipment, facilities, and funding so the partners can jointly implement monitoring and evaluation activities tied directly to LSRCP objectives.
The project work centers on three core monitoring and evaluation areas. First, it supports tracking egg and fish production at LSRCP facilities in Idaho and documenting how fish are distributed from those facilities, which is essential for understanding output, release practices, and operational performance. Second, it funds evaluation of adult fish returning to Idaho that were produced at LSRCP facilities in previous years, helping determine survival, return rates, and overall effectiveness of hatchery and release strategies over time. Third, it includes monitoring of wild or natural fish stocks and their habitats that influence, or may influence, the ability of the LSRCP to meet its program goals, recognizing that hatchery outcomes and compensation objectives are affected by conditions in natural populations and the environments they depend on.
This notice was explicitly issued as a notice of intent to make an award to the Shoshone Bannock Tribe, indicating it is not a broadly competed opportunity. Eligibility is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, and the announcement states the SBT is uniquely qualified because of its working relationship and direct involvement with LSRCP facilities in Idaho. The award is justified under Departmental policy (505 DM 2.14 (B4)), reflecting a situation where a sole-source or limited competition approach is used based on unique qualifications and programmatic needs.
The legal and programmatic basis for the work is grounded in federal authorities including the Water Resources Development Act of 1976 (Public Law 94-587) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (16 U.S.C. 661-666). These authorities direct and authorize the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the LSRCP to coordinate with state and federal agencies and with tribes to develop and implement efforts that evaluate survival and harvest related to fish releases in the lower Snake River. In practical terms, the grant funds monitoring and evaluation that helps determine whether LSRCP production and release efforts are achieving intended mitigation outcomes and how those actions interact with natural stocks and habitat conditions.
The opportunity anticipated a single award with total funding of $356,176, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $356,176, meaning the intended award amount was fixed rather than a range. It carried no cost sharing or matching requirement. The funding activity category is Science and Technology and other Research and Development, aligning with the monitoring, data collection, and evaluation focus. The notice was posted and created on August 31, 2011, with an application closing date of September 14, 2011, and an archive date of October 14, 2011. The CFDA number associated with the program is 15.661 (Lower Snake River Compensation Plan). For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed contact was Margaret Anderson, Cooperative Agreements Specialist, at 208-378-5299.
