Opportunity Summary:
The Thomas Creek Water Quality grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 09FS1UNA01) was a discretionary grant issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Upper Columbia Area Office. The purpose of the award was to support natural resources work focused on Thomas Creek through water quality monitoring and habitat assessment/monitoring activities. The announcement was framed as a Notice of Intent under the Native American Affairs Program, indicating the agency planned to make an award to a specific tribal recipient rather than run a broad, open competition.
The intended recipient and eligible applicant category was federally recognized Native American tribal governments, with the notice specifically naming the Samish Indian Nation of Anacortes, Washington as the entity slated to receive funding. The work described centers on collecting and evaluating environmental data in and around Thomas Creek, including monitoring water quality conditions and assessing habitat status and changes over time. In practical terms, this type of project typically involves establishing sampling locations, collecting field measurements and laboratory samples, documenting baseline conditions, tracking trends, and using the results to inform resource management and protection actions.
The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000. The award ceiling was $100,000 and the award floor was $5,000, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The funding activity category was listed as Natural Resources, and the program was associated with CFDA (now Assistance Listing) 15.519, Indian Tribal Water Resources Development, Management, and Protection.
