Opportunity Summary:

The San Jacinto Basin Restoration Fund opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R10SF35283) is a mandatory federal funding action issued by the Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region, to support natural resources work in the San Jacinto River Basin. The announcement functions as a notice of intent to make a single, noncompetitive cooperative agreement award to the Eastern Municipal Water District. The core purpose is to establish and administer the San Jacinto Basin Restoration Fund, aligning the work with the requirements of Public Law 110-297, the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians Settlement Act. In practical terms, the agreement is meant to put a formal funding and administration structure in place so basin restoration activities can be supported and managed in a way that complies with the authorizing statute.

Because this is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, it typically signals an arrangement where the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance, such as coordination, oversight, or participation in key decisions tied to how the fund is set up and run. The activity category is listed as Natural Resources, with the specific explanation emphasizing implementation of fund establishment and administration consistent with P.L. 110-297. The assistance listing references CFDA 15.534 (Miscellaneous Public Law 93-638 Contracts, Grants, and Cooperative Agreements), which is commonly used for certain Reclamation and DOI assistance actions authorized under various public laws.

Funding is substantial, with an estimated total program amount of $10,000,000. The award ceiling is $10,000,000 and the award floor is $6,000,000, indicating the anticipated award will fall within that range, and the notice anticipates exactly one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to provide a non-federal match as a condition of receiving the federal funds. Eligibility is shown as special district governments, which fits the intended recipient, the Eastern Municipal Water District.

Key dates show the notice was posted and created on September 13, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 27, 2010, and an archive date of October 27, 2010. Even though a “closing date” is listed, the noncompetitive nature and the explicit identification of the intended awardee indicate the agency is not soliciting competing applications; instead, it is documenting its intent to proceed with a directed award under the governing authority.

For access issues or questions tied to the announcement, the listed point of contact is Dennis Wolfe, Area Engineer, reachable by phone at 951-695-5310.
