Opportunity Summary:
The Monitoring and Evaluations grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number LSRCP NOI 11 J015) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service cooperative agreement intended to support fishery monitoring and evaluation work under the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP) in Idaho. The purpose is to strengthen coordination between the US Fish and Wildlife Service, the LSRCP Office, and the Shoshone Bannock Tribe (SBT) so they can jointly carry out the LSRCPs goals. In practical terms, the award is meant to formalize and fund the sharing and coordinated use of services, staff, equipment, facilities, and funding so that monitoring and evaluation activities are implemented consistently and efficiently across the program.
The core work funded by this opportunity focuses on three connected monitoring areas that are central to how the LSRCP measures performance and biological outcomes. First, it supports monitoring of egg and fish production at LSRCP facilities in Idaho and how those fish are distributed from those facilities, which typically includes tracking production numbers, health, timing, and release or transfer logistics. Second, it supports evaluation of adult fish returning to Idaho that were produced at LSRCP facilities in previous years, which is how the program assesses whether hatchery-origin fish are surviving, migrating, and returning as intended and how those returns contribute to mitigation and harvest objectives. Third, it supports monitoring of wild or natural fish stocks and their habitats when those stocks or habitat conditions influence the LSRCPs ability to meet its objectives, recognizing that hatchery program success is tied to broader environmental conditions and interactions with naturally spawning populations.
Administratively, this opportunity is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, which signals substantial involvement and collaboration with the federal agency during project execution rather than a hands-off grant structure. The activity category is listed under science and technology and other research and development, reflecting that the funded work is data-driven and evaluation-oriented. The opportunity anticipated a single award with total funding of $350,018, and both the award ceiling and floor were the same amount, indicating a fixed expected award size. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement.
Eligibility is primarily aimed at federally recognized Native American tribal governments, with this specific notice framed as a notice of intent to award to the Shoshone Bannock Tribe. The justification given is that SBT is uniquely qualified because of its direct work within LSRCP facilities in Idaho and its capacity to carry out the required monitoring and evaluation tasks. The notice cites federal authorities that support and direct this type of cooperative fisheries mitigation and evaluation work, 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), which underpin the LSRCPs mandate to work with agencies and tribes to evaluate fish survival and harvest associated with releases in the lower Snake River system.
Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on September 15, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 29, 2010, and an archive date of October 29, 2010.
