Opportunity Summary:
The "Utah Basin States Salinity Control Projects" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BOR UC 16 N010) is a continuation funding notice from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation (DOI-BOR). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to be actively involved in the project work and oversight rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The program focus sits in the agriculture activity area and is tied to CFDA 15.509, indicating it is part of Reclamation's broader water and related resources assistance authorities.
The core purpose of this opportunity is to use Basin States Program Salinity Funds in Utah to carry out practical, cost-effective actions that reduce salinity loading. The work targets multiple known contributors to salinity problems, including saline springs, leaking wells, irrigation-related sources, industrial inputs, and erosion occurring on both public and private lands. In addition to on-the-ground control measures and any necessary associated infrastructure or improvements, the opportunity explicitly includes support for studies, planning, and administrative functions needed to design, coordinate, and manage salinity control activities. In other words, it covers both implementation and the upstream work that makes implementation effective.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, and Reclamation indicates it intends to work specifically with the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food as the recipient. The notice anticipates a single award, reinforcing that this is aimed at supporting an ongoing or established state-led effort rather than creating a broad competitive field of applicants. The total potential federal funding listed is up to $6,237,000 as the award ceiling, with one expected award.
Key dates show the opportunity was created and posted on April 13, 2016, with an original and current closing date of April 27, 2016. Overall, the grant is designed to fund coordinated salinity reduction work in Utah under the Basin States Program, emphasizing measures that provide strong results per dollar spent and that address a wide range of salinity sources through planning, implementation, and program administration.
