Opportunity Summary:
The Redband Trout and Salmon Habitat Assessments and Restoration opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00121) was a discretionary federal grant offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expected to be actively involved with the recipient during the project rather than simply issuing funds with minimal interaction. The agency anticipated making a single award, with total funding set at $260,000; both the award ceiling and floor were $260,000, indicating the project was essentially designed around one fully funded package rather than a range of possible award sizes. No cost share or matching funds were required. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any entity type), subject to any additional eligibility notes that may have appeared in the full announcement on Grants.gov.
The core purpose of the project was to jointly evaluate the condition of riparian habitat and fisheries across two interconnected river systems in the northern Great Basin region: the upper Owyhee River and the Bruneau/Jarbidge River drainage systems, spanning parts of Nevada, Idaho, and Oregon. BLM and Trout Unlimited (TU) planned to work together to produce an updated, drainage-wide aquatic assessment that reflects current habitat quality and fish population conditions, with a clear emphasis on species of conservation and recreational importance such as redband trout and salmon.
A major feature of the project design was the integration of existing datasets with new, modern assessment tools. The opportunity specifically called for using previously collected fisheries data from state fish and wildlife agencies in Nevada, Idaho, and Oregon, and combining those historical and baseline records with new data derived from high-resolution remote imagery and current data collection. The intent was to move beyond piecemeal or outdated snapshots and create a more comprehensive, current picture of aquatic and riparian health across the full landscape. The assessment framework mentioned in the announcement was the Conservation Success Index, which would be used to synthesize the combined data into a consistent set of metrics or scores that can support decision-making across jurisdictions and stream reaches.
The anticipated outcome was not only an assessment report but also an action pathway. After compiling and analyzing conditions, the partners planned to develop prioritization plans that identify where restoration or protection would provide the greatest benefit. Restoration would then follow based on those priorities, implying that the assessment work was meant to directly drive on-the-ground implementation rather than remain a purely academic exercise. In practical terms, this kind of approach typically supports targeting riparian and instream improvements where limiting factors are most severe, where connectivity is most threatened, or where a project has the highest likelihood of improving habitat function and fish populations over time.
This funding opportunity was posted and created on June 7, 2010, with an original and final closing date of June 18, 2010, and it was archived on July 7, 2010. The point of contact listed for access issues or questions about the announcement was Susan Kaller at the BLM (phone 775-861-6559, email susankaller@blm.gov).
