Opportunity Summary:
The Peralta Riverside Drain grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R14SS00016) was a discretionary grant issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, under CFDA 15.519 (Indian Tribal Water Resources Development, Management, and Protection). Its purpose was narrowly focused: to provide funding to the Pueblo of Isleta to repair a collapsed subsurface drainage outfall associated with the Ranchitos drainage system where it discharges into the Upper Peralta Riverside Drain. In practical terms, the project centered on restoring a failed drainage outlet structure so water could be conveyed safely and reliably, helping protect local water infrastructure and reducing the risk of continued erosion or drainage dysfunction in the area.
The work site was identified as being on Pueblo of Isleta lands in Valencia County, New Mexico. The announcement included detailed directions for locating the outfall: traveling south about 6 miles from the intersection of I-25 and State Highway 46, turning onto Toby Lane and heading west about 1.4 miles, then turning north for about 0.1 mile. Coordinates were also provided (UTM North 3452 21.5 and West 10642 52.2), underscoring that the funding was tied to a specific, on-the-ground repair at a defined location rather than a broad planning effort.
Funding for the opportunity was set at a fixed amount, with an estimated total funding of $127,631. The award ceiling and floor were both $127,631, indicating the Bureau of Reclamation expected to make a single award for exactly that amount (Expected Awards: 1). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the applicant was not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to receive the grant, which is often important for urgent infrastructure repairs and smaller, targeted construction or rehabilitation efforts.
Eligibility was limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, and the only clearly relevant applicant based on the project description was the Pueblo of Isleta, since the project was intended to assist that specific Tribe with a specific damaged drainage feature on its lands. The opportunity was posted on August 22, 2014, with an application closing date of September 5, 2014. It was archived on October 5, 2014, meaning it is no longer open for applications and exists primarily as a historical notice of the funding action.
For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed Bureau of Reclamation grants officer contact was Heidi Hansen (phone 801-524-3760, email heidihansen@usbr.gov).
