Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "YRBWEP Implementation" (Funding Opportunity Number 08SF1UR033) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, through its Upper Columbia Area Office. It falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.531, the Yakima River Basin Water Enhancement Project (YRBWEP). The announcement was posted on May 28, 2008, and closed on June 13, 2008, with the opportunity archived the following day (June 14, 2008).

The core purpose of this grant is to support work for the Benton Irrigation District focused on a pump pressurized water delivery system. Specifically, the funding is intended to cover development of final engineering designs, securing easements and rights-of-way, and providing funding toward construction of the system. In practical terms, the grant targets the last major pre-construction steps (final design and property access) and directly supports moving the project into construction, which suggests the agency is aiming for near-term, implementable outcomes rather than early-stage planning.

Funding for this opportunity is fixed at $538,080, with both the award ceiling and award floor set at exactly $538,080. The notice anticipates a single award, meaning one recipient would receive the entire amount rather than the funding being split across multiple projects. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so the recipient would be expected to contribute non-federal funds or in-kind support in addition to the federal award, consistent with how many Bureau of Reclamation water infrastructure and efficiency-related programs are structured.

Eligibility is limited to special district governments, which aligns with the intended beneficiary being an irrigation district. For applicants or stakeholders needing assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Rex Crumrine (Contracts and Agreements), reachable by phone at 509-575-5848 or by email at rcrumrine@pn.usbr.gov.
