Opportunity Summary:
The Trinity County Trinity Management Council (TMC) Technical Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R12AS20010) is a federal grant action from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Mid Pacific Region. It was posted on March 20, 2012 as a continuation grant and issued as a Notice of Intent to Award, meaning the agency signaled its plan to make an award rather than running a broad, open competition. The Bureau of Reclamation indicated it intended to enter into a grant agreement with the County of Trinity, Planning Office, which is also listed as the eligible applicant type (county governments). The funding activity is categorized under "Other," with the clarification that it relates to channel rehabilitation, aligning it with river restoration and management support work rather than a standard construction-only project.
The core purpose of the project is to provide overall guidance and direction to the Trinity River Restoration Program. In practical terms, the funded work supports the governance, coordination, and technical participation functions that help steer restoration actions in the Trinity River basin. The restoration program’s goals, as described in the announcement, are broad ecosystem outcomes: restoring, enhancing, and conserving natural production of anadromous fisheries (fish that migrate between ocean and freshwater, such as salmon and steelhead), protecting and improving native plant communities, and sustaining associated wildlife resources. The emphasis is on achieving these outcomes in sufficient quantity and quality to ensure long-term sustainability across the basin, which signals a long-horizon approach focused on durable ecological recovery rather than short-term fixes.
A key reason Trinity County is central to this award is its formal role in the Trinity River Restoration Program’s administration. The notice states that the County of Trinity is one of eight entities entitled to participate in all administrative functions of the program. That framing matters because it positions the county not merely as a local partner, but as a recognized governance participant with an ongoing seat at the table. The grant is therefore best understood as technical assistance and program participation support that strengthens decision-making, coordination, and oversight tied to restoration efforts, rather than as a standalone field project.
From a funding standpoint, the announcement lists an estimated total funding amount of $375,000, with an award ceiling of $75,000 and an award floor of $0, and it anticipates a single award. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, which typically reduces barriers for the recipient and allows the federal funds to cover the full approved scope of work. The CFDA number provided is 15.532, identified as the Central Valley Project, Trinity River Division, Trinity River Fish and Wildlife Management, which anchors the opportunity within the Bureau of Reclamation’s established program authority and confirms the fish and wildlife management focus within the Trinity River Division.
Administratively, the closing date for the notice was April 3, 2012, and the opportunity was archived on April 4, 2012. The notice also states that Central Contractor Registration (CCR) applied to this award action. CCR was the predecessor to today’s SAM.gov registration system and was a standard federal requirement for entities receiving federal awards, used to validate and manage recipient information for contracting and assistance agreements. For questions, the listed point of contact is Mary Sims, Grants Specialist, reachable by email at msims@usbr.gov, with the Bureau of Reclamation, Mid Pacific Region as the issuing agency.
