Opportunity Summary:
The ODFW Operations and Maintenance grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00030) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.661, the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan. The core purpose is operational: to develop and carry out a program that rears enough Chinook salmon and steelhead smolts so that, when those fish migrate to the ocean and later return as adults, they help offset fish losses affecting Oregon that are associated with the Snake River basin. In practical terms, the opportunity supports the production and rearing work needed to increase the number of juvenile fish released and ultimately boost returning adult runs, with the explicit goal of compensation rather than a general research study or short-term pilot.
Funding for this opportunity is fixed and targeted. The estimated total funding is $2,780,749, and both the award floor and ceiling are also set at $2,780,749, signaling the agency anticipated making a single award in that exact amount. One award was expected. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is listed under Natural Resources, Science and Technology, and other Research and Development, even though the description points most directly to hatchery-style operations and maintenance activities tied to fish production and recovery outcomes. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, which aligns with the title and intent of the award and strongly indicates the intended applicant is the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife or another qualifying Oregon state entity responsible for fish production and management. The timeline for the solicitation was short: it was posted and created on November 15, 2012, with an original and current closing date of November 29, 2012, and it was archived on December 31, 2012. While the announcement itself is no longer active, these dates show it was structured as a time-bound, single-recipient funding action rather than an open-ended or recurring competition.
For official details and the full announcement, the listing referenced Grants.gov as the additional information source. The contact provided for access issues or questions was Margaret Anderson, Cooperative Agreements Specialist, reachable at 208-378-5299 and MargaretMAnderson@fws.gov.
