Opportunity Summary:
The "Monitoring and Evaluations" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number LSRCP NOI 11 J016) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP). The overall purpose is to measure how well hatchery releases are meeting the program's compensation objectives by tracking adult fish returns to hatchery facilities, natural spawning areas, and fisheries. In practical terms, the work focuses on evaluating survival, harvest, and return patterns of Chinook salmon and steelhead that originate from LSRCP-related hatchery production, with an emphasis on producing usable data for management and annual planning.
The project is designed to support the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) in assessing the success of LSRCP programs through three main lines of effort. First, it calls for summarizing and estimating adult Chinook salmon and steelhead harvest in the mainstem Columbia River fisheries, including analysis of when fish move through different fisheries. This migration timing component matters because it helps managers understand exposure to harvest across time and space, and it improves the ability to connect fishery impacts to specific hatchery release groups and stocks.
Second, the opportunity supports estimating the number of hatchery-origin versus wild or natural-origin fish returning to the project area in Idaho. A major deliverable embedded in this task is improving understanding of the timing and distribution of marked hatchery fish and wild stocks in Idaho recreational fisheries. That information is intended to feed directly into annual harvest management plans. By pairing harvest data with hatchery return data, the project aims to generate more reliable estimates of how many adults returning to Idaho can be attributed to LSRCP hatchery releases, which is central to evaluating whether compensation goals are being met.
Third, the work includes hands-on mark and tag data responsibilities that are essential to regional monitoring programs. These duties include removing coded-wire tags from snouts, reading those tags, uploading records to the Regional Mark Information System (RMIS), and maintaining the resulting information in a format that can be accessed and used by interested parties. This data management element is not just clerical; it is how stock identification, contribution estimates, and many survival and harvest calculations are supported across agencies.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on September 15, 2010, with a closing date of September 29, 2010, and an archive date of October 29, 2010. The total estimated funding is $659,573, and both the award floor and ceiling are listed as $659,573, indicating a single anticipated award at that exact funding level (Expected Awards: 1). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA number is 15.661 (Lower Snake River Compensation Plan), and the activity category is listed as Science and Technology and other Research and Development.
Eligibility is effectively limited by the nature of the announcement. This notice states an intent to award up to $659,573 to the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission (PSMFC) under a justification cited as 505 DM 2.14(B4). The rationale given is that federal law, 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), authorizes and directs the LSRCP Office to work with state and federal agencies and tribes to implement evaluation of survival and harvest for fish released in connection with lower Snake River mitigation. PSMFC is described as uniquely qualified because it works within LSRCP facilities in Idaho, which positions it to carry out the monitoring, sampling, and data handling needed for this evaluation work.
