Opportunity Summary:
The Padre Dam Water Recycling Facility Expansion Project Preconstruction Activities opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 09SF350255) is a federal funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region. It announces the government s intent to make a single award through a cooperative agreement to support preconstruction work associated with expanding the Padre Dam Water Recycling Facility. The opportunity sits within the Bureau of Reclamation s Title XVI Water Reclamation and Reuse Program (CFDA 15.504), which focuses on developing water reclamation, reuse, and recycling projects that strengthen water supply reliability and resource management in the western United States.
This notice is specifically a non competitive action, meaning the Bureau of Reclamation is not seeking competing applications from multiple entities. Instead, it signals an intent to award directly to the Padre Dam Municipal Water District. The eligible applicant category listed is special district governments, which fits a municipal water district structure. The use of a cooperative agreement, rather than a standard grant, generally indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as coordination on technical scope, oversight of milestones, review of deliverables, or other collaborative project management activities typical of preconstruction planning and development.
The funding totals are clearly defined. The estimated total funding available is $1,612,500, and the award ceiling is also $1,612,500, implying that the single expected award could cover the full amount. An award floor of $100,000 is listed, which sets a lower bound for potential award size even though only one award is anticipated. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non federal funds or in kind resources consistent with Title XVI program requirements and the terms that would be spelled out in the cooperative agreement.
Key timeline details show this was posted and created on May 8, 2009, with an original and current closing date of May 15, 2009. The archive date is June 14, 2009, indicating the opportunity is historical and no longer active.
