Opportunity Summary:

The Trinity River Watershed Coordination opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R10AS20022) is a discretionary grant initiative from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Mid Pacific Region, tied to CFDA 15.512 under the Central Valley Project Improvement Act, Title XXXIV. The grant is designed to support watershed coordination work that advances the Trinity River Restoration Program (TRRP) objectives by strengthening collaboration among local public agencies, stakeholders, and partners involved in planning and carrying out on-the-ground watershed efforts. In practical terms, the funding is meant to improve how different entities work together so TRRP watershed projects can be identified, prioritized, and implemented more effectively.

The scope of work centers on watershed activities that protect and improve aquatic habitat conditions in the Trinity River system, with a clear emphasis on sediment-related problems and fish passage. Examples of eligible or anticipated activities include mitigation projects in areas experiencing high sediment production, preventative maintenance actions intended to reduce the risk of future sediment hotspots, and sediment detention efforts that help manage sediment movement before it degrades habitat. The opportunity also highlights work to enhance fish passage at road crossings or other obstructions, indicating that barrier assessment and improvement at culverts, crossings, and similar infrastructure may be a key focus. In addition, the grant contemplates assessments aimed at identifying and prioritizing the watershed actions most likely to produce meaningful habitat benefits, which suggests planning, evaluation, and prioritization tasks may be funded alongside physical implementation support.

This posting is explicitly a Notice of Intent to Award rather than a competitive solicitation. The Bureau of Reclamation states it intends to enter into a grant agreement with the Trinity County Resource Conservation District, and it notes that the government decision not to compete the award is covered under Departmental Manual 505 DM 2, paragraph 2.14(B)(4), at the government’s discretion. Because of that structure, the notice is not asking the public to submit proposals, and it should be read primarily as a public notification that the agency plans to make a single award.

Key funding details include an estimated total funding amount of $276,260 and an expected number of awards of one. The award ceiling and floor are listed as $0, which often indicates the notice is not using those fields to define limits rather than implying no funds are available. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted on June 15, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 29, 2010, and an archive date of June 30, 2010, reflecting that it is an older, time-limited notice that has since been archived.

Although the listing includes a broad set of applicant types (such as special district governments, county governments, federally recognized tribal governments, state and local governments, individuals, and public or state-controlled institutions of higher education), the eligibility section clarifies that this particular requirement is posted as a Notice of Intent to award specifically to the Trinity County Resource Conservation District. Administrative notes include that Central Contractor Registration (CCR) requirements apply (CCR was the predecessor to today’s SAM.gov registration framework), and the notice provides a point of contact for questions or for assistance accessing the full announcement. The listed contact is Judy A. Hudson, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at (916) 978-5058 or by email at jhudson@usbr.gov.
