Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00048
The grant opportunity titled "CA CESU Maintenance of JSATS Array in South Delta for USFWS" (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00048) is a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), Department of the Interior, discretionary funding action planned as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.678. It is issued as a Notice of Intent, meaning the agency is not soliciting open competition for this work; instead, it signals the government s intent to make an award directly to a named partner, in this case the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), which is eligible as a public, state controlled institution of higher education. The posting was created on December 6, 2016 with an original closing date of December 12, 2016, reflecting the administrative timeline typical of a directed or pre selected award rather than a broad call for proposals.
The purpose of the project is to support fisheries monitoring in the San Joaquin Delta by estimating survival of fall run juvenile salmon during the 2017 study period. The work is funded through the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CVPIA), specifically the Comprehensive Monitoring and Assessment Program, which supports science and monitoring efforts tied to fish and wildlife outcomes in the Central Valley system. In practical terms, the study relies on acoustic telemetry to track juvenile salmon movement and survival as fish migrate through the Delta, an area where routing, predation, water operations, and habitat conditions can strongly affect survival rates and where monitoring data are used to inform management decisions.
Operationally, the USFWS Lodi Fish and Wildlife Office (Lodi FWO) will release a total of 1,296 JSATS acoustic tags at two locations in the Delta. JSATS (Juvenile Salmon Acoustic Telemetry System) tags emit acoustic signals that can be detected by a network of submerged receivers as tagged fish pass through the system. The role of UC Davis under this cooperative agreement is to maintain, operate, and retrieve an array of JSATS acoustic receivers in the South Delta. That scope implies field deployment and servicing of receiver stations, ensuring the array remains functional over the monitoring period, and recovering equipment and recorded detections at the end of the effort. Although the public notice does not spell out deliverables in detail, this type of work typically includes keeping receivers properly moored and positioned, managing power and data storage needs, performing periodic checks to confirm detection performance, and returning the retrieved detection data so survival and movement analyses can be completed.
The award information indicates an award ceiling of $400,000 and lists expected awards as 0, which in this context generally reflects that the opportunity is not an open competitive program expecting multiple awards; it is a single intended award action associated with the Notice of Intent. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted cooperative agreement to keep a critical telemetry receiver array operating in the South Delta so USFWS can detect tagged juvenile salmon and estimate survival during their migration, supporting CVPIA monitoring objectives for 2017.Apply for F17AS00048
