Opportunity Summary:
The Rosewood Creek Area A Restoration Project is a mandatory federal grant opportunity from the Bureau of Reclamation (Mid Pacific Region) focused on environmental restoration work in the Rosewood Creek area. The funding is being issued under CFDA 15.508 (Providing Water to At Risk Natural Desert Terminal Lakes) and specific legislative authority tied to Public Law 108-7, Title II (Energy and Water Development Appropriations Act, 2003), Section 207. The agency states it intends to make a sole-source grant award to the Nevada Tahoe Conservation District, meaning the government is not seeking competing applications and has decided, under Departmental Manual 505 DM2 2.14(B)(3) and legislative intent, to proceed with a non-competitive assistance agreement.
The project scope covers a full progression from design finalization through construction and post-construction monitoring. Planned activities include completing and finalizing 90 percent engineering designs and securing required permits, specifically calling out approvals from the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the Nevada Department of Environmental Protection. After permitting, the recipient is expected to prepare detailed project specifications and produce final design plans that are formally stamped, then develop bid documents, advertise the work, manage the bid process, and select a contractor. Construction work centers on building a new stream channel, followed by revegetation and seasonal establishment of the new channel, introducing flow into the new channel, and then filling the old stream channel. The project also includes revegetating the area surrounding the former channel alignment and monitoring water quality parameters to track environmental outcomes.
In terms of timing and funding levels, the estimated award amount is $2,000,000 with an award ceiling of $2,000,000, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The anticipated award date was on or about July 25, 2010, with a period of performance running from the date of award through December 31, 2014. The opportunity was posted April 28, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 14, 2010, and an archive date of June 13, 2010. Eligible applicants are listed as state governments, though the notice makes clear the intended recipient is the Nevada Tahoe Conservation District through a sole-source determination.
For administrative reference, the funding opportunity number is R10AS20016, the instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is environment. Questions were directed to Jeff (Sataporn) Palachat at the Bureau of Reclamation (phone 916-978-5146; email spalachat@usbr.gov).
