OpportunityTitle: Upper Salmon Sub-basin Anadromous Fish Habitat Improvements
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: This Funding Announcement is not a request for applications.  This announcement is to provide public notice of the Bureau of Reclamation&#8217;s intention to fund the following project activities without full and open competition.
Description: The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) currently provides technical assistance in eleven tributary sub-basins in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. Actions identified in these sub-basins are designed to improve survival of fish during spawning and rearing life stages. Reclamation&#8217;s responsibility for its sub-basins is to work with willing partners to implement actions to meet specific metric goals that include: (1) fish screens that meet current criteria; (2) spawning and rearing access restored by removal of fish passage barriers; (3) meeting instream flow targets; and (4) increased miles of channel complexity in the sub-basins. Custer Soil and Water Conservation District (Custer), a local government entity, works with many partners to sponsor fish habitat improvement and passage activities in the Upper Salmon Sub-basin (Sub-basin). Custer will provide landowner coordination necessary to complete projects in this Sub-basin, and will provide assistance with environmental permits and construction coordination and funding.
