Opportunity Summary:
The Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe Creel Surveys opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F15AS00082) was a discretionary grant from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service focused on natural resources work at Pyramid Lake, Nevada. The core purpose of the project was to conduct creel surveys targeting the Lahontan cutthroat trout fishery at Pyramid Lake. Creel surveys are the on-the-ground angler-intercept and effort-monitoring surveys used by fisheries managers to understand fishing pressure and harvest, track catch rates, and gather other information that supports management decisions for a fish population and the fishery that depends on it.
This opportunity was categorized under the Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance CFDA program (15.608) and used the grant funding instrument type. It did not require cost sharing or matching funds. Eligibility was limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, which aligns with the location and management context of Pyramid Lake and the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe's role in fisheries stewardship and monitoring. While the listing did not specify an estimated total funding amount or award ceiling/floor (all shown as 0 in the posted record), it still functioned as an official solicitation for project support under the agency's assistance authorities.
The announcement timeline was short and specific. It was posted on January 23, 2015, created on January 30, 2015, and had an original and current closing date of January 31, 2015.

The additional information link referenced the Grants.gov posting, where the full application package and any detailed programmatic requirements would typically have been provided.
