Opportunity Summary:

The Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe Dunn Hatchery grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F14AS00102) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.608, Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance. The purpose of the award is to support a coordinated partnership between the Lahontan National Fish Hatchery Complex and the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe focused on meeting production needs for Pilot Peak Lahontan cutthroat trout (LCT) intended for Pyramid Lake. In practical terms, the project centers on hatchery and stocking collaboration so that enough fish are produced and managed in a way that supports both conservation and fisheries goals tied to Pyramid Lake and the broader Truckee River Basin.

A key emphasis of the opportunity is species recovery and watershed-scale restoration outcomes. Pilot Peak Lahontan cutthroat trout are significant because they represent an important lineage for recovery efforts, and the announcement frames production work at the hatchery level as a direct contribution to recovering Lahontan cutthroat trout in the Truckee River Basin. Alongside recovery goals, the opportunity also highlights a public benefit component: maintaining and enhancing a valuable recreational fishing resource. That dual purpose (recovery plus recreation) signals that the work is expected to deliver measurable natural resource outcomes while also supporting public use values associated with a healthy fishery.

Eligibility is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, which aligns with the project focus on the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe and its role in managing resources connected to Pyramid Lake. The award does not require cost sharing or matching, which reduces financial barriers to participation and suggests the program is structured to fully fund the cooperative activities up to the amount available. The total estimated funding listed for the opportunity is $75,000. The notice lists an award ceiling and floor as $0, which typically indicates that specific award sizing may be determined through the agreement process or that the listing fields were not used to define fixed limits beyond the overall estimate.

The timeline for this opportunity was short and clearly defined. It was posted and created on February 27, 2014, with an original and current closing date of March 13, 2014. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally implies substantial involvement by the federal agency during the project. In this context, that fits the stated intent: coordinated efforts between a federal hatchery complex and the Tribe, where planning, production targets, technical decisions, and implementation are likely shared responsibilities rather than a simple pass-through grant.

For applicants or interested parties seeking the full announcement details, an additional information link was provided through Grants.gov. The point of contact listed for access issues is Misty Summers, Budget Technician/COR, reachable at 775-265-2425 or via MistySummers@fws.gov.
