Opportunity Information: Apply for F17AS00168
The Treaty Indian Catch Monitoring Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F17AS00168) was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service under CFDA 15.608. It was created on March 20, 2017, and originally closed on March 27, 2017. The program was designed to support implementation of the Treaty Indian Catch Monitoring Program, which is tied directly to the management and reporting requirements associated with the U.S. v. Washington decision. In practical terms, the grant was intended to help ensure that treaty-based fishing harvest data are collected and documented in a consistent, reliable way so that fisheries managers have accurate information for making in-season and long-term decisions.
A central focus of the opportunity was Treaty Indian Fish Ticket catch monitoring. Fish tickets are a standard catch documentation tool used to record what is landed and sold or distributed, and in this context they serve as a structured way to capture key harvest data from treaty Indian fisheries. The monitoring activities supported by this funding produce essential source data used in salmon harvest management, including the kinds of details that inform run-size assessments, harvest accounting, compliance with agreed management frameworks, and coordination among co-managers responsible for salmon resources. By improving or sustaining fish ticket monitoring and associated catch reporting, the program helps provide the factual basis for decisions about harvest levels, conservation measures, and allocation discussions, which are especially important in a legally and scientifically complex management environment.
The opportunity listed its eligible applicants as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any clarifications that might have been included in an additional eligibility section. The funding instrument was a grant, and the activity category was aligned with environment, natural resources, science and technology, and other research and development, reflecting the program's data-driven role in fisheries management. The award ceiling was $99,500, and only one award was expected. The listing indicates that the recipient had already been selected, meaning the competition was effectively concluded and the funding decision made shortly after the closing date.Apply for F17AS00168
