Opportunity Summary:
The NPT Monitoring Evaluations grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00004) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.661, the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan. Its purpose is to support the development and implementation of a program that evaluates the survival and harvest of fish releases in the lower Snake River, specifically across Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. In practical terms, the project focus is on monitoring released fish to determine how well they survive after release and how they contribute to fisheries harvest, generating data that can be used to assess program effectiveness and guide future fish management actions in the basin.
This opportunity falls under the funding activity area of Natural Resources, Science and Technology, and other Research and Development, signaling that the award is intended to fund applied monitoring and evaluation work rather than general operations. The announcement anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with total funding of $896,625. The award structure is fixed at that amount, with both the ceiling and floor listed as $896,625, meaning applicants should plan around a single, set funding level rather than proposing a broad range of budgets. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the applicant is not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments. This restriction indicates the program is specifically designed to be carried out by a qualified tribal government partner, consistent with how certain monitoring, harvest evaluation, and fisheries management responsibilities are coordinated in the Columbia and Snake River regions. The project would be expected to produce credible monitoring results about post-release survival and harvest outcomes, typically involving coordinated field sampling, data collection and analysis, and reporting that helps quantify fishery contributions and survival performance for releases occurring in the lower Snake River system.
Key dates for the opportunity were a posted date of October 22, 2013, with the application deadline (original and current closing date) on November 5, 2013. The opportunity was archived on November 22, 2013, meaning it is no longer open for applications, but the listing remains useful as a reference for the scope, eligibility, and funding level associated with that year’s award.
For more information, the announcement directed applicants to Grants.gov (Additional Information Link: http://www.grants.gov). The listed point of contact for access issues or questions was Margaret Anderson at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable at (208) 378-5299 and via email at MargaretMAnderson@fws.gov.
