Opportunity Information: Apply for BOR PN 18 N024
The grant opportunity titled "Scoggins Valley Park Accessibility Improvements" (Funding Opportunity Number BOR PN 18 N024) is a Bureau of Reclamation grant that, despite its title, is described as a technical water management and reservoir operations modeling effort focused on the Klamath River basin and Upper Klamath Lake. The core purpose is to strengthen the analytical and decision-support tools that water managers use to operate reservoirs under increasingly variable hydrologic conditions, especially the extremes of drought and flooding. The work is meant to help managers make day-to-day operational decisions while balancing several competing requirements: maintaining minimum lake levels in Upper Klamath Lake, meeting water delivery commitments associated with the Klamath Project, and satisfying instream flow needs in the Klamath River.
A major driver behind the project is that Klamath River management is expected to change significantly in the near future due to ongoing activities and evolving conditions in the watershed. Because of these anticipated shifts, the opportunity emphasizes the need to revisit and stress-test the tools and strategies currently used by basin operators. The project explicitly builds on prior efforts, particularly the SECURE Reservoir Operations Pilot Study for Upper Klamath Lake and the Klamath River Basin Study, and aims to extend those findings into a broader, more operationally focused framework that reflects the basin's unique challenges.
Technically, the centerpiece of the work is further development and testing of an existing RiverWare model so that it can support daily operations, including flood control considerations. RiverWare is a modeling platform widely used for simulating and optimizing river and reservoir system operations, and the goal here is to refine the model's operational policies so they accurately represent current real-world practices rather than outdated assumptions. A key part of that refinement is understanding how operations have evolved since implementation of the 2013 Biological Assessment, which influences constraints and management objectives related to environmental and species considerations. Bureau of Reclamation Technical Service Center staff are expected to work closely with operators in Reclamation's Klamath Basin Area Office, and to collaborate with the University of Colorado Center for Advanced Decision Support for Water and Environmental Systems (CU-CADSWES), an established research group with expertise in water systems modeling and decision support.
Beyond improving the model itself, the project also includes a stakeholder communication component. The opportunity calls for developing and testing methods and tools to communicate model results to the broader stakeholder community, which is often essential in basins like the Klamath where operational decisions affect irrigation districts, tribes, fisheries interests, environmental stakeholders, and local communities. In practical terms, this means the deliverables are not only better internal modeling capabilities, but also clearer ways to share outputs and implications so that operational choices are more transparent and usable in collaborative or contested decision environments.
In terms of funding structure and eligibility, the opportunity is listed as a mandatory grant under CFDA 15.524, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation. Eligibility is limited to county governments. The award ceiling is $150,000, with one expected award, indicating a single project or lead recipient rather than a broad multi-award program. The opportunity was created July 9, 2018, with an original closing date of July 17, 2018, which suggests a short application window typical of targeted or pre-scoped agency efforts.Apply for BOR PN 18 N024
