Grant Description

The Bureau of Reclamation, Lower Colorado Region, Yuma Area Office is requesting proposals to fund projects or activities in support of their Endangered Species and Environmental Restoration programs for Federal fiscal year 2009 (October 1, 2008 through September 30, 2009). The Yuma Area Office periodically makes funding available for conducting activities for Threatened and Endangered species and their habitat, under the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, Section 7.(a)(1) of the Endangered Species Act. It is anticipated that two awards of a grant or cooperative agreement will be made to a responsible, responsive and eligible recipient and will be based on technical merit at the fixed assistance amount. Cost sharing or cost matching is not mandatory but highly desired in an amount of 25% or more. Applications will be reviewed, evaluated, and rated by a technical panel.
