Opportunity Summary:
The Upper Salmon Region Habitat Improvement Projects opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R12SS10012) is a Bureau of Reclamation, Pacific Northwest Region notice explaining the agency's intent to fund specific habitat improvement activities through a cooperative agreement, without full and open competition. It is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that Reclamation plans to continue work that began under a 2010 cooperative agreement with Trout Unlimited's Idaho Water Project (TU IWP), which has been serving as the project sponsor for habitat work in Idaho's Upper Salmon Region, specifically within the Lemhi and Upper Salmon Subbasins.
Under the earlier agreement, TU IWP's role was to identify stream and watershed projects and priority locations that could improve conditions for endangered and threatened fish species as part of Reclamation's tributary habitat program, to coordinate and encourage participation from private and public partners, and to perform post-project evaluations to help measure how effective each activity was. As a result of that coordination and planning effort, TU IWP identified three new projects in the subbasins that are expected to produce stream habitat improvements and support anadromous fisheries. The notice explains that while the 2010 agreement is nearing closure, the need for continued project development and coordination remains, so Reclamation intends to establish a new cooperative agreement that allows TU IWP to keep serving in that sponsor and coordination capacity through 2014.
The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, with an environmental and natural resources focus. The estimated total funding and the maximum award amount are both listed as $283,707, and Reclamation expected to make one award. No cost sharing or matching requirement is stated. Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), which aligns with Trout Unlimited's nonprofit status and reinforces that the notice is primarily about a planned, targeted award rather than an open competition.
Key administrative details include a posting date of August 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 22, 2012, and an archive date of August 23, 2012. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.517, Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact is Lisa Strong, Financial Assistance Officer, at 208-378-5138 or lstrong@usbr.gov.
