Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00040
Bull Trout Recovery Assistance (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00040) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service, offered through a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.608. The purpose of the project is to support bull trout recovery work in Montana by funding practical, on-the-ground evaluation and improvement of fish passage. The effort centers on assessing current conditions through field inventory and then moving into the design and implementation of passage improvements, with an emphasis on removing or reducing barriers that prevent fish from reaching critical habitat.
A major theme of the project is improving connectivity in streams affected by common infrastructure on nonfederal lands, especially irrigation diversions and road crossings. These structures can block upstream and downstream movement or unintentionally pull fish into diversion systems (entrainment), both of which can reduce survival and fragment populations. By addressing these issues, the project is intended to directly support recovery goals for bull trout and also benefit Westslope Cutthroat Trout in the same watersheds. The initial geographic focus is on key western Montana watersheds where these problems are prominent and where connectivity gains can make a measurable difference: Rock Creek, the Upper and Middle Clark Fork River, and the Bitterroot River.
The funding details indicate an award ceiling of $25,000 and an expectation of up to five awards. Eligibility is listed under "Others" with additional eligibility clarification referenced in the original notice. However, the posting specifically states it is a notice of intent to award a single-source cooperative agreement to Trout Unlimited, citing DOI Policy 505 DM 2 (4) regarding unique qualifications. In practical terms, that language signals the agency planned to fund a specific organization without open competition, typically because the recipient is viewed as having specialized expertise, relationships, or capacity that directly matches the project needs.
The opportunity was created on November 7, 2018, with an original closing date of November 14, 2018, reflecting a short window consistent with a single-source intent notice. Overall, the grant is aimed at tangible recovery actions: identifying where fish passage is impaired, designing solutions for problematic diversions and crossings, and implementing improvements that reconnect habitat and reduce fish losses, thereby advancing bull trout recovery efforts across targeted western Montana streams.Apply for F19AS00040
