Opportunity Information: Apply for BOR MP 18 F001
The CVPCP and CVPIA Habitat Restoration Program funding opportunity (BOR-MP-18-F001) is a discretionary grant program run by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation. It supports work connected to the Central Valley Project (CVP) in California, with a focus on addressing habitat and species impacts associated with the CVP. For FY 2018, the program is inviting proposals through an open announcement process, with the intent of awarding financial assistance in the form of grants or cooperative agreements.
The core purpose of the CVPCP and the Central Valley Project Improvement Act Habitat Restoration Program (HRP) is twofold: first, to protect and restore native habitats that have been impacted by the Central Valley Project, and second, to stabilize and improve populations of native species that have been impacted by the CVP. In practical terms, this means the Bureau of Reclamation is looking to fund on-the-ground conservation and restoration actions that directly contribute to habitat protection and recovery outcomes for native species in the CVP landscape. The agency also points applicants to examples of previously funded projects on its website (www.usbr.gov/mp/cvpcp), which can help prospective applicants understand the types of activities that have aligned with program priorities in the past.
A key emphasis for the FY 2018 cycle is that land acquisition projects will receive the highest priority for funding. This suggests the Bureau is particularly interested in proposals that permanently protect important habitat through acquisition or similar mechanisms that secure conservation benefits over the long term. While other habitat restoration and species benefit projects may still be relevant to the program objectives, the stated priority indicates that proposals involving acquisition are likely to be more competitive in this specific funding round.
The period of performance for any award made under this opportunity will not exceed five years from the date the agreement is issued, giving recipients time to complete multi-year acquisition and restoration efforts. The Bureau anticipates making about 25 awards, and the listing notes an award ceiling of 0, which typically indicates the specific maximum award amount is not stated in the public synopsis and applicants must refer to the full FOA for detailed funding parameters, budgeting expectations, and any minimum or maximum request guidance.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to state governments, and the program is associated with CFDA number 15.564 under the Natural Resources funding activity category. Applications must be submitted through Grants.gov, and the full Funding Opportunity Announcement must be downloaded there; no paper copies will be distributed. The deadline for receipt of proposals is March 16, 2018, no later than 3:00 PM, making timely electronic submission essential.
The opportunity is subject to System for Award Management (SAM) requirements. Applicants must be actively registered in SAM at the time of application and award, and an entity that is not registered is considered ineligible. SAM registration information is available at http://www.sam.gov, and because SAM processing can take time, prospective applicants would need to ensure their registration is active well ahead of the submission deadline to avoid last-minute disqualification.
Administrative questions about the FOA are directed to Teresa E. Brown, who is listed as the point of contact; inquiries can be submitted via email at tebrown@usbr.gov (or by letter, as noted in the synopsis). For the most complete and authoritative details, including application package requirements, evaluation criteria, allowable costs, and any geographic or project-type restrictions, applicants would need to consult the full FOA posted on Grants.gov under opportunity number BOR-MP-18-F001.Apply for BOR MP 18 F001
