Opportunity Information: Apply for BOR MP 18 N033
The Sacramento Joint Intake Project opportunity is a Bureau of Reclamation (U.S. Department of the Interior) notice explaining Reclamation's intent to modify an existing cooperative agreement with Reclamation District 2035, rather than open a new competitive grant round. The funding is issued under CFDA 15.512, tied to the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (Title XXXIV of P.L. 102-575), specifically the provisions focused on fish, wildlife, and habitat restoration (Section 3406(b)(21)) and authority for funding to non-federal entities (Section 3407(e)). The activity area is categorized under natural resources, and the eligible applicant type listed is special district governments, reflecting that the intended recipient is a reclamation district.
Financially, the notice highlights a very large overall agreement value and a relatively small federal increment for the stated fiscal year. The estimated total amount of the cooperative agreement is $55,590,527.00, with Reclamation providing $264,410.00 in Fiscal Year 2018. The funding opportunity record lists an award ceiling of $264,410 and an expectation of a single award, which aligns with the stated intent: this action is a funding modification to an existing agreement with one named partner, not a solicitation designed to fund multiple applicants.
The project itself involves construction of a joint intake and diversion facility on the Sacramento River, located around River Mile 70.8 on the right bank near Woodland, California. The facility is being developed for joint use by Reclamation District 2035 (the recipient) and Reclamation (the agency) to divert water from the Sacramento River while meeting current environmental and safety-related compliance needs. Two requirements are emphasized as drivers of the facility design and operation: modern fish screening standards (to reduce impacts to fish and aquatic species) and floodway protection requirements (to ensure the diversion infrastructure functions without compromising flood conveyance or flood management).
In terms of deliverables and scope, the stated core objectives are to design and build major intake components, specifically an intake pump station, an associated fish screen system, and an outlet station. In other words, the work is focused on the physical infrastructure needed to withdraw water responsibly and convey it onward, with fish protection features integrated into the intake design rather than treated as an add-on.
Administratively, this announcement is presented as a Notice of Intent to Award (and, in this case, modify funding under an existing cooperative agreement). It explicitly states that it is not a request for competitive proposals. Reclamation also notes that the decision not to compete the financial assistance action is based on internal departmental policy (Departmental Manual 505 DM 2, paragraph 2.14(B)(2) and (4)) and that this determination is solely within the government's discretion. For anyone seeking further context, the notice references the same announcement number (BOR-MP-18-N033) for additional information, and it provides a point of contact for questions: Leanne Henderson, Grants Management Specialist, reachable by email at lhenderson@usbr.gov. The posting shows a creation date of August 10, 2018, with an original closing date of August 23, 2018, consistent with how agencies post noncompetitive intent notices for transparency even when the recipient is pre-identified.Apply for BOR MP 18 N033
