Opportunity Information: Apply for BOR MP 19 N025
The OWRD Ground Water Monitoring Modification 0009 grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BOR MP 19 N025) is a discretionary grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, focused on natural resources work in Oregon's Klamath Basin. It is essentially a continuation funding action tied to an existing award (R15AP00061, Modification 0009) rather than a brand-new, open-ended project. The purpose is to keep supporting the Oregon Water Resources Department (OWRD) in collecting groundwater monitoring data from OWRD-managed and public well sites where, importantly, only OWRD personnel have the legal right to access the sites and perform the monitoring. In practical terms, the grant is paying to sustain specialized, authorized field data collection that outside entities cannot legally replicate because of access constraints.
The underlying need for the continuation is driven by ongoing concerns about irrigation-related groundwater pumping in the Klamath Basin and its broader impacts. OWRD is monitoring how much water is being withdrawn from wells used for irrigation, because increased pumping can contribute to negative effects on groundwater levels (the aquifer) and connected surface-water systems such as lakes and rivers. Those changes can ripple through the ecosystem and are especially significant in an area where water availability and aquatic habitat conditions can affect protected or sensitive species, including endangered species. By maintaining consistent monitoring, the program supports better understanding of pumping intensity and trends, helps track impacts over time, and provides data that can inform water management decisions in a basin where groundwater and surface water are closely linked.
Administratively, this opportunity is listed under CFDA (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing) 15.517 and is structured as a grant. The eligible applicant type is special district governments, and the notice anticipates a single award, reflecting the continuation nature of the work and the access/authority requirements that make OWRD the practical entity to conduct the monitoring at certain sites. The total listed award ceiling is $621,291, with an expected number of awards of 1. The opportunity record shows a creation date of August 20, 2019, and an original closing date of September 3, 2019, which aligns with the idea that this is a narrowly targeted continuation action rather than a broad, competitive solicitation aimed at multiple applicants.
Overall, the grant can be summarized as funding to keep a legally restricted groundwater monitoring effort running in the Klamath Basin, ensuring OWRD can continue collecting well data needed to evaluate irrigation pumping and its consequences for aquifers, interconnected lake and river systems, and species and habitat conditions that are sensitive to water level and flow changes.Apply for BOR MP 19 N025
