Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: Eligible applicants include agricultural and M&I water user entities, states, tribes, local governments, and non-profit organizations. To be eligible for financial assistance, the applicant must have a definable relationship to the watershed of one, or more, specific Reclamation water projects in the LCRA boundaries described in Section I of the RFP. For the purposes of this funding announcement, a Reclamation project is defined as a specific Reclamation water project that was authorized by Congress and constructed by Reclamation. This includes everything within the project service area (i.e., project features and facilities, project service area, watershed, water systems or water supplies affected by a specific Reclamation project). Substantiation of a Reclamation water supply contract is one way to show a relationship to a Reclamation project.
Grant Description: The objective of this Notice of Funding Opportunity is to invite irrigation and water districts, states, local governments, water providers, and other entities that have a tie to Reclamation projects to leverage their money and resources, by cost sharing with Reclamation, on projects/activities that make more efficient use of existing water supplies through water conservation and efficiency in the LCRA. Projects/Activities will be selected through a competitive process.
