Opportunity Summary:
The SBT Monitoring and Evaluations grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F16AS00026) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service (DOI-FWS). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to be substantially involved in the funded work rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The program sits within the Natural Resources and Science and Technology research and development space (CFDA 15.661), signaling that it is meant to support applied, field-based work that produces practical management information.
The core purpose of the opportunity is to develop and implement a monitoring and evaluation program focused on fish releases in the lower Snake River. The project is specifically aimed at measuring two outcomes: survival and harvest. In practical terms, that implies work to track how well released fish live through key life stages and river conditions after release, and how many of those fish are later caught in fisheries. A program like this commonly involves designing a monitoring framework, establishing data collection protocols, coordinating sampling over time and across locations, and producing analyses that can inform future release strategies and fishery management decisions. Because it is described as both development and implementation, the funded entity would likely be expected to create the evaluation design and then carry it out during the project period, generating usable results rather than only planning documents.
Eligibility for this funding is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments. Only one award was anticipated under this opportunity, with an award ceiling of $517,865. That ceiling indicates the maximum amount available for the single expected project, suggesting the funder intended to support one comprehensive monitoring effort rather than several small projects.
Key administrative details include an original and current closing date of November 13, 2015, and a posting/creation date of November 6, 2015. Taken together, these details describe a time-limited, targeted funding opportunity for a tribal government to lead an evaluation effort that improves understanding of outcomes from fish release programs on the lower Snake River, with the ultimate goal of producing credible survival and harvest information that can guide management and future investments.
