Opportunity Summary:
The Sacramento River Green Sturgeon Migration and Population Assessment is a Bureau of Reclamation (Mid-Pacific Region) funding opportunity intended to support a fish study focused on green sturgeon in the Sacramento River system. The project is framed as financial assistance to evaluate green sturgeon migration patterns and population status, motivated by documented concerns about declining abundance. Those concerns triggered multiple reviews under the federal Endangered Species Act, and the process ultimately led to the Southern green sturgeon Distinct Population Segment being listed as threatened on June 6, 2006. In practical terms, the award is meant to generate scientific information that can inform management and recovery actions tied to that threatened listing and to broader Central Valley Project operational and restoration responsibilities.
This award is planned as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, meaning the Bureau of Reclamation expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it is carried out (for example, coordination on study design, field activities, data needs, or reporting). The Bureau stated its intent to issue the cooperative agreement to the University of California, Davis under CESU agreement number 3FC810873, using authority under CFDA 15.512 (Central Valley Project Improvement Act), Public Law 102-575, Section 3406(b)(10). The estimated total funding is 1,930,480.00, with an award ceiling of 1,930,480 and an award floor of 0, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed.
Although the posting lists eligibility as "unrestricted" in the general fields, the narrative makes clear this is a Notice of Intent to Award and explicitly not a request for competitive proposals. In other words, Reclamation signaled that it planned to make a non-competitive award to UC Davis and that any decision not to compete the assistance is at the government’s discretion under Departmental Manual 505 DM 2, paragraph 2.14(B)(2) and (4). The opportunity was posted January 28, 2010, with an original and current closing date of February 11, 2010, and an archive date of February 12, 2010, with an estimated award date of March 30, 2010.
For administrative questions, the point of contact listed is Mary Sims (Grants Officer/Contract Specialist) at msims@usbr.gov, and the funding opportunity number associated with the announcement is R10AS20007.
