Opportunity Summary:
The SBT Monitoring and Evaluation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00021) was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.661, the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan. Its purpose was to support the development and implementation of a program focused on monitoring and evaluating the survival and harvest outcomes of fish releases on the lower Snake River, specifically tied to Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP) facilities located in Idaho. In practical terms, the funding was intended to help carry out structured evaluation work that can measure how well released fish survive after release and how those fish contribute to fisheries through harvest, producing information that can be used to assess program performance and guide future management decisions.
The opportunity was categorized under Natural Resources, Science and Technology, and other Research and Development, reflecting its emphasis on applied monitoring and evaluation rather than infrastructure construction or general operations. The award was structured as a grant, and the announcement anticipated making one award. The estimated total available funding for that single award was $356,176, with both the award ceiling and award floor set at exactly $356,176, meaning the agency expected to fund one project at that exact amount rather than a range of possible budgets. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility was limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The announcement was posted on November 14, 2012, and had a closing date of November 27, 2012, indicating a short application window. The opportunity was later archived on December 31, 2012. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for assistance was Margaret Anderson, a Cooperative Agreements Specialist with the Fish and Wildlife Service, reachable by phone at 208-378-5299 or by email at MargaretMAnderson@fws.gov.
