Opportunity Summary:

The Upper Klamath Basin Fish Screen grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R10AF20010) was a discretionary funding program offered by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Mid Pacific Region, through its Klamath Basin Area Office. The purpose of the funding was to provide financial assistance for activities that support and advance the Upper Klamath Basin Fish Screen Program. In practical terms, the program focused on work related to fish screens associated with private, non-Project water diversions on Upper Klamath Lake, as well as privately owned diversions located on the Keno Impoundment and within the Oregon portion of the Lost River system. Fish screen efforts in these kinds of locations are generally aimed at helping reduce fish entrainment into irrigation or diversion structures and supporting broader fish protection and habitat coordination goals in the basin.

The announcement indicated that awards would be made as grants (and potentially cooperative agreements, based on the broader description of the FOA). The total funding available was estimated at $100,000, with an award ceiling of $50,000 per award and no stated minimum award amount (award floor listed as $0). The agency anticipated making about seven awards under this opportunity, suggesting relatively small, targeted projects rather than large-scale infrastructure investments. The funding was associated with CFDA number 15.517 under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act framework, and it included a cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning recipients were expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash and/or eligible in-kind support) toward the project cost.

Eligible applicants were limited to governmental entities, specifically city or township governments, county governments, state governments, and special district governments. That eligibility list implies that even though the program activities were tied to privately owned diversions, the intended applicants were public agencies or districts that could coordinate, administer, or partner on implementation, permitting, and compliance work connected to fish screen improvements or related program actions.

Administratively, the opportunity required Central Contractor Registration (CCR), which was the federal vendor/applicant registration system used at the time (now replaced by SAM.gov in modern federal grant processes, but the announcement itself referenced CCR at www.ccr.gov). The FOA was posted on June 3, 2010, and it had an original and final closing date of July 19, 2010, with an archive date of July 20, 2010, indicating it is no longer an active funding opportunity. Questions were directed to Mary Sims, Contract Specialist, via email at msims@usbr.gov, who was also listed as the point of contact for assistance in accessing the full announcement electronically.
