Opportunity Summary:

The Upper Missouri River Study (Funding Opportunity Number R12SS60007) is a discretionary grant opportunity published by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Great Plains Region. The purpose of the award is narrowly focused: it is intended to support fisheries work on the Missouri River by funding fish technician positions and covering the upkeep and maintenance of existing Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) fish tracking stations already installed along the river. In practical terms, the grant is aimed at sustaining ongoing field operations and monitoring infrastructure rather than launching a new construction effort or starting a broad new research program.

This opportunity anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $17,493 and an award ceiling of $17,493, meaning the full amount represents the maximum expected for this action. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, so the recipient is not expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of receiving the funds. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 15.517, tied to the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, which commonly supports coordination and mitigation efforts related to fish and wildlife resources in connection with federal water projects.

Eligibility is effectively restricted. Although the general eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," the opportunity text makes clear that the Bureau of Reclamation intends to make this award specifically to Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks. This indicates a targeted or sole-source style award where the agency has identified a particular state partner with existing responsibilities, capacity, and on-the-ground presence to carry out the work tied to Missouri River fisheries monitoring and tracking station maintenance.

The posting timeline shows the announcement was posted on March 8, 2012, created on March 9, 2012, with an original and current closing date of March 29, 2012. The archive date is March 30, 2012, indicating the opportunity is historical and no longer open. For administrative questions (including access issues with the full announcement), the listed point of contact was Lindsey Nafts, Grants Officer, reachable by phone at 406-247-7684.
