Opportunity Summary:
The Treaty Indian Fish Ticket Catch grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F12AS00246) was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under the Fish and Wildlife Management Assistance program (CFDA 15.608). It was posted and created on June 22, 2012, with an application deadline of July 13, 2012, and it was later archived on July 20, 2012. The funding instrument was a grant, and the activity area was categorized as Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting the program's focus on generating practical data that supports real-world fishery management decisions.
The purpose of the award was straightforward: to carry out Treaty Indian Fish Ticket Catch monitoring activities. In practical terms, this type of work centers on documenting harvest information through fish ticket systems and related monitoring, producing data that is considered essential for managing harvest levels and supporting salmon resource management decisions. The collected information helps inform how fisheries are tracked and regulated, supports oversight of harvest impacts, and contributes to decision-making processes tied to salmon conservation and allocation. Because treaty fisheries involve federally recognized tribal rights and co-management structures in many regions, accurate and timely catch monitoring is a key part of maintaining credible harvest accounting and supporting coordinated management between tribes and other governmental partners.
Funding for this opportunity was limited to a single expected award, with an estimated total funding amount of $99,500. The award ceiling and floor were both set at $99,500, indicating the agency anticipated making one fixed-size award rather than a range of award amounts. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds to be considered or to receive the award.
Eligibility was limited to Native American tribal governments that are federally recognized. This restriction aligns with the subject matter of the opportunity, since the project is specifically connected to Treaty Indian fisheries and the monitoring systems that support those fisheries. Applicants seeking full details and official submission requirements were directed to Grants.gov, which hosted the complete announcement and application materials at the time.
For assistance accessing the announcement electronically or for other administrative questions, the listed point of contact was Brian West, Administrative Officer, reachable by phone at 503-872-2763 or by email at BrianWest@fws.gov.
