Opportunity Summary:
The Portneuf River Fish Passage Design Study (Funding Opportunity Number R14AS00052) is a Bureau of Reclamation discretionary grant notice in the Environment and Natural Resources category, tied to CFDA 15.517 under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act. The notice was posted on May 30, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 14, 2014, and an archive date of June 15, 2014. The total estimated funding for this action is $100,000, which is also the stated award ceiling, with no minimum award floor listed. No cost sharing or matching requirement is expected.
This announcement is specifically not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice of the Bureau of Reclamation's intent to provide financial assistance to a single recipient: the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, a federally recognized tribal government and the only eligible applicant identified for this planned award. In practical terms, that means the agency is signaling a directed (non-competitive) intent to fund a defined partner for a defined scope of work, rather than opening a broader competition to multiple applicants.
The purpose of the funded work is to develop an alternatives evaluation and a design for fish passage and an associated check structure on the Portneuf River. The focus area is the pump station rock dam, which currently limits fish movement. The study is intended to identify and design a solution that enables fish to reach upstream spawning habitat above this barrier while also supporting a healthy fishery in the lower reach of the Portneuf River. At the same time, the project is meant to preserve or improve operational flexibility for the Michaud Unit of the Fort Hall Irrigation Project, reflecting the dual objectives common to river infrastructure projects where ecological restoration must be balanced with ongoing water management and irrigation operations.
For additional details, the announcement points users to Grants.gov and provides an agency contact for access issues: Lisa Strong, Financial Assistance Officer, at 208-378-5138 or lstrong@usbr.gov.
