Opportunity Summary:
The Participation in Bradford Island CERCLA Project opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NWP 13 0002) is a discretionary federal funding program offered by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, to support Tribal involvement during environmental cleanup work at Bradford Island under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). The intent is to fund participation that helps ensure Tribal interests are properly considered and protected while the Bradford Island CERCLA Project is carried out, particularly where project activities could affect Treaty-protected rights, Tribal trust resources, and archaeological resources that hold religious or cultural importance.
Funding is provided through cooperative agreements, which generally means the Corps expects active involvement and collaboration with the award recipients during the period of performance rather than a fully hands-off grant. The announcement indicates the Corps plans to make up to four awards, aligning with the number of eligible Columbia River Treaty Tribes identified in the notice. The work supported by these agreements is tied specifically to consultation, coordination, monitoring, and related efforts that help protect cultural resources and Tribal rights and resources during the cleanup and response actions conducted under CERCLA authority (specifically referenced as CERCLA Section 121 in the announcement).
Eligibility is limited to federally recognized Tribal governments that were signatories to the 1855 treaties referenced in the notice. The eligible applicants named are the Confederated Tribes of the Warm Springs Reservation of Oregon (CTWSRO), the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (CTUIR), the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation (Yakama Nation), and the Nez Perce Tribe. The focus on these specific Tribes reflects the Treaty relationship and the connection of these communities to the Columbia River and the resources potentially affected by activities at or near Bradford Island.
The total estimated funding available for the opportunity is listed as $35,000, with an award ceiling of $25,000 per award and no stated minimum (award floor of $0). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not expected to provide non-federal match funding to participate. The funding activity category is Environment, consistent with the CERCLA cleanup context and the resource protection objectives described in the announcement.
Key dates in the announcement show it was posted May 30, 2013, with an original closing date of June 20, 2013, later extended to a current closing date of July 31, 2013. The archive date is August 30, 2013. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed contact is Karen Dailey, Contract Specialist/Grants Specialist, at (503) 808-4615, and additional details were available via Grants.gov through the link provided in the notice.
