Opportunity Summary:

The WDFW Evaluations grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F13AS00028) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.661, the Lower Snake River Compensation Plan (LSRCP). Its purpose is to fund the development and implementation of an evaluation program focused on fish releases in the lower Snake River, specifically at LSRCP facilities located in the state of Washington. The core work described is to measure and analyze two key outcomes related to these releases: survival (how well released fish live and persist after release) and harvest (the extent to which released fish are later caught in fisheries). In practical terms, the project is aimed at generating reliable, program-level performance information that can be used to understand the effectiveness of fish release strategies and inform future management decisions.

Funding for this opportunity is set as a single anticipated award, with an estimated total funding amount of $824,650. The award floor and ceiling are both listed as $824,650, which signals that the program expected to make one award at that specific amount rather than a range of potential award sizes. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is Natural Resources, Science and Technology, and other Research and Development, reflecting that the work is evaluation and research-oriented rather than, for example, construction or general operations. No cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is not obligated to provide non-federal funds to receive the full award amount.

Eligibility is limited to state governments, which aligns with the title and intent, as the work is framed around Washington state LSRCP facilities and is likely designed for implementation by a state fish and wildlife agency or similar state entity. The opportunity was posted on November 14, 2012, with an original and current closing date of November 28, 2012, and it was later archived on December 31, 2012. For additional details, the listing references Grants.gov and provides a point of contact for access issues: Margaret Anderson, Cooperative Agreements Specialist, reachable at 208-378-5299 and MargaretMAnderson@fws.gov.
