Opportunity Summary:

The Water Conservation Field Services Program (WCFSP) opportunity from the Bureau of Reclamation, Great Plains Region (Montana Area Office) was a discretionary funding announcement aimed at supporting natural resource work tied to water conservation in the context of Reclamation projects. The program was offered under CFDA 15.530 (Water Conservation Field Services Program) and made funding available through either a grant or a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency may remain more actively involved in the project compared with a standard grant, depending on the specific award terms.

This opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R10SF60002) anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $25,000. The award ceiling was $25,000 and the award floor was listed as $0, which typically indicates that proposals could request up to the maximum amount and that smaller requests might also be considered, but the total funding available was capped at $25,000 for the single expected award. A cost sharing or matching requirement applied, meaning applicants needed to contribute non-federal resources (such as cash, in-kind services, or other allowable contributions) as part of the total project cost, consistent with the specific program and award conditions.

Eligibility was limited and project-specific. Applicants needed to be irrigation and/or water districts that had a defined relationship to the Huntley Project, which is a Bureau of Reclamation project. In other words, it was not a broadly open competition for any organization; it was targeted to local water entities connected to that particular Reclamation project area, reflecting a focus on on-the-ground conservation or related field services work where those districts operate.

The timeline for the announcement shows it was posted and created on March 2, 2010, with an original and current closing date of March 31, 2010. The opportunity was archived on April 30, 2010, indicating it is no longer accepting applications and is retained for historical reference.

For assistance accessing the full announcement or related application materials at the time, the listed point of contact was Lindsey Nafts, Grants Officer, reachable by phone at 406-247-7684.
