Opportunity Summary:
The Sacramento River Small Screen Diversion grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R10AS20028) is a Bureau of Reclamation, Mid-Pacific Region notice stating the agency's intent to award a single continuation grant to the Family Water Alliance. The planned award is funded under CFDA 15.512, the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (Title XXXIV of Public Law 102-575), specifically Section 3406(b)(21). The estimated total funding is $1,500,000, with an award ceiling of $1,500,000 and a floor of $0, and it includes a cost-sharing or matching requirement.
The purpose of the grant is to support salmon recovery and protection of fishery resources by installing small diversion fish screens at multiple diversion sites on the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers. These screens are intended to reduce the risk that threatened and endangered anadromous fish (fish that migrate between freshwater and the ocean, such as salmon) are drawn into water diversion structures. By screening these diversions, the project aims to improve fish survival and contribute to broader restoration goals for salmon populations in the California Central Valley and the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta.
A key point in the announcement is that the work targets multiple sites that are not currently covered under the scope of the existing Sacramento Valley/Delta Fish Screen Program grant (Family Water Alliance, Phase 7). In other words, this funding is meant to fill gaps by addressing smaller or otherwise out-of-scope diversion locations, while still complementing and reinforcing the larger, ongoing fish screen program in the region.
This notice is explicitly not a competitive solicitation. The Bureau of Reclamation states it intends to make this award noncompetitively to the Family Water Alliance, and that the decision not to compete the assistance is based on Departmental Manual 505 DM 2, paragraph 2.14(B)(2) and (4), which the government notes is solely within its discretion. Although the listing includes a general eligibility category (501(c)(3) nonprofits other than institutions of higher education), the notice makes clear that it is a notice of intent to award rather than a request for proposals from other applicants.
The opportunity was posted and created on June 24, 2010, with an original and current closing date of July 9, 2010, and an archive date of July 10, 2010. For questions, the designated contact is Mary Sims, Grants Officer/Contract Specialist, reachable by email at msims@usbr.gov, and the announcement references the Notice of Intent to Award for additional details.
