Opportunity Summary:
The PSMFC Data Management grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F16AS00018) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (DOI-FWS). It supports work in the natural resources and science and technology research and development space, with a specific focus on building out a data collection and management effort tied to the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP). The core purpose of the award is to develop and implement a program that collects LSRCP data on fish inventory across the lower Snake River basin, meaning the funded recipient would be responsible for putting in place a consistent, usable system for gathering and organizing information about fish populations and related inventory metrics in that geographic area.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement or coordination with the federal agency compared with a standard grant. In practice, that usually means the recipient is expected to work closely with DOI-FWS on technical direction, data standards, reporting needs, and alignment with LSRCP objectives. The opportunity anticipates a single award, with an award ceiling of $520,520, making it a targeted, one-recipient effort rather than a broad multi-award program.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, narrowing the applicant pool to state-level agencies or entities capable of carrying out basin-wide fish inventory data activities and coordinating with partners and field programs as needed. The applicable CFDA numbers listed are 15.661, which helps place the opportunity within the federal assistance cataloging system and can be useful for administrative and compliance tracking by applicants.
Key dates show this was a time-bound competition posted on October 27, 2015, created the same day, and closed on November 3, 2015 (both the original and current closing dates match). Overall, the opportunity is best understood as funding for a structured data management and collection program that strengthens how LSRCP fish inventory information is gathered, maintained, and made available for management, monitoring, and decision-making across the lower Snake River basin.
