Opportunity Summary:

The Klamath Tribes Drought Relief Program is a discretionary grant opportunity issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Mid-Pacific Region. The agency posted a Notice of Intent (Funding Opportunity Number R13AS20032) stating it plans to enter into a grant agreement specifically with The Klamath Tribes to support a drought relief program. The core purpose is drought mitigation, with the program designed to help tribal Allottees by providing relief activities and support aimed at reducing drought impacts on tribal lands and resources.

This announcement is not a competitive solicitation. It is a notice that the government intends to make an award to The Klamath Tribes without competing the funding, citing the Departmental Manual (505 DM 2, paragraph 2.14(B)(4)) as the policy basis for a non-competitive determination. In practical terms, that means other organizations are not being asked to submit proposals, even though the general eligibility list shown in the posting includes many applicant types (such as state and local governments, nonprofits, universities, small businesses, for-profit entities, and individuals). The eligibility section clarifies the actual intent: it is posted as a Notice of Intent to Award to The Klamath Tribes.

The financial details show an estimated total program funding amount of $825,000, with an award ceiling of $825,000 and an award floor of $0, and the agency expected to make one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated. The assistance is categorized under Natural Resources, and it references CFDA number 15.517 (Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act), which signals the broader resource management and environmental coordination context in which the drought relief work may fit.

Timing details indicate the opportunity was posted on July 26, 2013, with an original and current closing date of August 9, 2013, and an archive date of August 10, 2013. While the notice is archived and tied to that time period, the posting emphasizes administrative requirements that apply to federal financial assistance, including the System for Award Management (SAM). The notice directs readers to SAM.gov for registration information, underscoring that standard federal award compliance steps apply even though this is a targeted, non-competitive intent to award.
