Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00204
The grant opportunity titled "Conduct Fall Chinook Salmon Spawning Escapement Enumeration Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00204) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) discretionary grant under the Department of the Interior focused on natural resources work connected to Klamath River Fall Chinook salmon management. The project centers on conducting annual spawning escapement surveys, which are field surveys designed to estimate how many wild Fall Chinook salmon successfully return to spawn in the river system (the portion of the run that "escapes" harvest and makes it to spawning areas). These surveys take place on the mainstem Klamath River in California, specifically from Iron Gate Dam downstream to the Happy Camp area.
The on-the-ground work is carried out by the Karuk Fisheries Program, with coordination and cooperation from the USFWS Arcata Fish and Wildlife Office. Survey crews float specific river reaches and systematically locate, count, and map both adult Chinook salmon and redds (salmon nests in gravel where eggs are deposited). By documenting fish and redd locations and totals across the surveyed reaches, the project produces standardized escapement information that helps track annual spawning activity, distribution patterns, and relative abundance in the mainstem.
A key purpose of the grant is to generate reliable data that feeds directly into fishery management decisions. The information collected during these surveys is used alongside the annual "Klamath River Fall Chinook in-river escapement report" produced by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). Together, these datasets support determinations of harvest levels and broader stock management actions for Klamath River Fall Chinook by the Klamath Fisheries Management Council. In other words, the survey results are not just for monitoring; they are part of the evidence base used to set or adjust fishing impacts while trying to maintain sustainable Chinook populations.
Administratively, the opportunity is listed under CFDA number 15.608 and is limited in eligibility to federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The posting functions as a Notice of Intent rather than a competitive open solicitation, and it states the award has already been made to the Karuk Tribe. The expected number of awards is one, with an award ceiling of $41,418. The notice was created on May 1, 2019, and emphasizes that the Karuk Tribe and the USFWS Arcata Office would work collaboratively during the 2019 survey season to complete the escapement enumeration effort.Apply for F19AS00204
