Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00406
The grant opportunity titled "15.648 Californian Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit" (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00406) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service. It uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which generally means the federal agency expects to be substantially involved in the work as it is carried out, rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction. The activity area is natural resources, and it is associated with CFDA 15.678. The specific project described under this opportunity is "Thermal Physiological Assessment of Lower Yuba River California Salmonids," indicating a focus on understanding how temperature conditions in the Lower Yuba River affect the physiology of salmonid fish species found there, which can include salmon and trout. This kind of work typically supports fisheries management by helping agencies understand thermal tolerances, stress thresholds, and habitat suitability under varying river temperature regimes.
This announcement is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award to University of California Davis," meaning it was not presented as an open competition to a broad pool of applicants. Instead, it signals that the agency intended to make a single award to a specific institution. Consistent with that intent, the eligible applicant category listed is "Public and State controlled institutions of higher education," which aligns with UC Davis as a public university. The opportunity anticipated one award total (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $150,000, setting the maximum funding amount available for the project under this announcement.
Key administrative details show the opportunity was created on August 15, 2017, with an original closing date of August 20, 2017, reflecting a very short application window that is common for notices tied to a pre-identified recipient rather than a standard competitive solicitation. In practical terms, this type of posting often functions as a formal public record supporting a targeted cooperative project that fits within an established partnership framework such as a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). Overall, the opportunity represents a single, capped cooperative agreement intended to support UC Davis in conducting applied research on temperature-related physiological responses of salmonids in the Lower Yuba River, information that can be used to inform conservation actions, habitat management, and river operations decisions affecting these fish populations.Apply for F17AS00406
