Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Monitoring and Evaluations" (Funding Opportunity Number: LSRCP NOI 10 J013) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP). Its core purpose is to formalize and support cooperation between the USFWS LSRCP Office and the Nez Perce Tribe (NPT) to carry out LSRCP objectives across Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. The LSRCP is intended to offset fish and wildlife losses associated with federal water development in the lower Snake River system, and this award focuses on the practical work needed to measure results and keep the program functioning as designed.
The project emphasizes an organized sharing and coordination of services, personnel, equipment, facilities, and funding so that monitoring, evaluation, operations and maintenance, and harvest monitoring can be conducted efficiently and consistently across multiple states and facilities. In plain terms, the funding supports the on-the-ground capacity to track what the LSRCP hatchery and supplementation programs produce, where those fish are released or distributed, and how well they survive and contribute to fisheries and returns in subsequent years. This includes collecting and analyzing information that demonstrates whether program actions are meeting intended biological and mitigation outcomes.
Specific work areas called out in the announcement include monitoring fish production at, and distribution from, LSRCP facilities in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington; evaluating adult fish returning to those states that were produced at LSRCP facilities in previous years; and assessing wild or natural fish stocks and their habitats where those stocks may influence, or be influenced by, LSRCP efforts. The inclusion of wild and natural stocks highlights that the evaluation is not limited to hatchery outputs alone, but also considers broader ecosystem and stock-interaction factors that can affect whether compensation goals are actually achieved. In addition, the opportunity supports assistance with operations at LSRCP facilities in northeast Oregon and explicitly includes coordinating and participating in fish culture activities for Imnaha spring Chinook, indicating a hands-on role in hatchery culture and related coordination, not just data collection.
This opportunity was structured as a notice of intent to award a single cooperative agreement, with an expected one award and a total estimated funding amount of $734,687 (with the award ceiling and floor both set at $734,687). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA program identifier is 15.661 (Lower Snake River Compensation Plan). While eligibility listings include federally recognized Native American tribal governments, the notice makes clear this was an intended, justified award to the Nez Perce Tribe specifically, citing the Tribe as uniquely qualified because of its established work within LSRCP facilities across Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. The award is justified under departmental authority referenced as 505 DM 2.14 (B4).
The legal and program basis cited in the notice includes the Water Resources Development Act of 1976 (Public Law 94-587) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (16 U.S.C. 661-666), which authorize and direct the USFWS LSRCP Office to collaborate with state and federal agencies and Indian tribes to develop and implement evaluation programs, including survival and harvest of released fish in the lower Snake River context. Practically, that authority is being used here to support a cooperative partnership where the Tribe helps deliver monitoring and evaluation, harvest monitoring, and facility-related operational support needed to document performance and guide management decisions.
Key administrative details include a posted and creation date of September 18, 2009, with an original and current closing date of October 2, 2009, and an archive date of November 1, 2009. The funding activity category is listed under Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting that the work is research-informed monitoring and evaluation tied directly to management and facility operations. For access issues with the full announcement, the contact listed is Margaret Anderson, Cooperative Agreements Specialist, at 208-378-5299.
