Opportunity Summary:
The Water Conservation Field Services Program (WCFSP) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R10SF60007) was a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Great Plains Region, associated with the Wyoming Area Office and administered through the Nebraska-Kansas Area Office. It sought project proposals for Federal Fiscal Year 2010 that would support Reclamation's Water Conservation Field Services Program, which focuses on practical, on-the-ground activities that improve water conservation and water management tied to Reclamation projects.
Awards under this opportunity were planned to be made through cooperative agreements, meaning recipients should expect an active partnership with Reclamation during the project period rather than a simple pass-through grant. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the program is tied to CFDA 15.530 (Water Conservation Field Services Program). The announcement anticipated making about four awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $50,000. The maximum award amount (ceiling) was $50,000, and the minimum award amount (floor) was listed as $0, which typically indicates there was no guaranteed minimum size for individual awards and that smaller proposals could be considered depending on merit and available funds. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applied, so applicants needed to contribute non-federal resources or otherwise meet the match expectations described in the full announcement.
Eligibility was aimed at organizations directly involved in water delivery, water management, or water conservation efforts connected to Reclamation projects. Specifically, eligible applicants included irrigation and/or water districts, state or local water agencies, municipalities, Reclamation water contractors, and water-related nonprofit organizations, as long as they had a defined relationship to one or more Reclamation Projects. In practical terms, the opportunity was geared toward entities that can demonstrate real operational or programmatic ties to Reclamation-managed or Reclamation-associated water infrastructure and can implement conservation-focused work that benefits those systems and their users.
The opportunity was posted on July 17, 2010, and closed on July 26, 2010, with the archive date listed as July 27, 2010. The program contact listed for access issues and related administrative questions was Lindsey Nafts, Grants Officer, reachable by phone at 406-247-7684.
