Opportunity Summary:

The "Upper Grande Ronde River Juvenile Spring Chinook Salmon Habitat Improvement" opportunity is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation. It was issued as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, listed under CFDA number 15.517. The opportunity was created on August 16, 2016, with an original application deadline of August 30, 2016, indicating a short submission window typical of targeted, time-sensitive project funding.

The core purpose of the award is to support the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) in completing a third year of study focused on juvenile spring Chinook salmon habitat conditions in the Upper Grande Ronde River sub-basin. The project is framed as a continuation effort rather than a brand-new start, with the third year of work expected to build on prior years of data collection and analysis. The intended outcome is practical and management-oriented: the study results are anticipated to generate information that can directly inform and lead to significant habitat improvements across the sub-basin, particularly those that benefit juvenile spring Chinook salmon.

Funding is structured with a single anticipated award (ExpectedAwards: 1), suggesting the Bureau of Reclamation intended to fund one recipient to carry out the specific scope of work. The maximum federal funding available for that award is capped at $201,338 (AwardCeiling: 201,338). Because the instrument type is a cooperative agreement, the federal agency typically expects to have more substantial involvement than in a standard grant, such as collaboration on technical direction, review of deliverables, coordination on study design or reporting, or alignment with broader basin or recovery efforts. Eligibility is limited to state governments, making state agencies like ODFW the primary intended applicants and excluding local governments, nonprofits, tribes, universities, and private entities unless partnering through the eligible state applicant.

In plain terms, this opportunity funds ODFW to finish a multi-year research and monitoring effort aimed at pinpointing habitat constraints and improvement opportunities for juvenile spring Chinook salmon in the Upper Grande Ronde River system. The emphasis is on producing actionable science and source data that can guide future restoration or habitat enhancement decisions, with the expectation that the third year of findings will help drive measurable, on-the-ground habitat improvements in the sub-basin.
