Opportunity Information: Apply for R24AS00447
Central Valley Project Habitat and Facility Improvements Year 3 is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Bureau of Reclamation focused on improving river habitat and related infrastructure in Californias Central Valley. The program is grounded in the reality that major water development and long-term channel and river management actions have reshaped the regions rivers in ways that negatively affect native salmon and steelhead populations. The opportunity is aimed specifically at supporting work that protects and rebuilds habitat conditions for Fall Run, Spring Run, and Winter Run Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), species that depend on suitable spawning and rearing areas and on safe, connected migration corridors.
The funding is framed around well-documented problems caused by human alterations to river systems. Stream channel manipulation and water infrastructure have reduced and modified historical habitat, including the loss of usable juvenile rearing areas. Gravel that would normally remain available in spawning reaches is frequently transported away from spawning sites, which can degrade spawning beds and limit successful reproduction. At the same time, built infrastructure can entrain juvenile fish (pulling them into diversions or facilities), block or complicate movement and passage, and increase fish vulnerability to predation by concentrating fish or slowing migration. In practical terms, the program supports habitat and facility improvements that reduce these impacts and help reestablish healthier, more functional river conditions.
This opportunity is tied to the purposes of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CVPIA). The CVPIA goals highlighted in the notice include protecting, restoring, and enhancing fish, wildlife, and associated habitats in the Central Valley and Trinity River basins; addressing impacts of the Central Valley Project (CVP) on fish and wildlife resources; improving operational flexibility of the CVP; and working toward a reasonable balance among competing uses of CVP water, including fish and wildlife needs alongside agricultural, municipal and industrial, and power contractor demands. That framing signals that proposals are expected to deliver tangible ecological benefits while fitting into the broader water management and infrastructure context of the CVP.
