About this opportunity

About The PCSRF is a federal funding grant program that supplements state and tribal programs for salmon recovery by allocating federal funding to projects that provide demonstrable and measurable benefits to Pacific anadromous salmonid populations (i.e., Chinook, coho, chum, sockeye, and pink salmon and steelhead) and their habitat. According to Congressional authorization, this competitive grant program funds projects that are necessary for the species conservation of salmon populations listed as threatened or endangered, or identified by a state as at-risk to be so-listed; or for maintaining populations necessary for the exercise of tribal treaty fishing rights or native subsistence fishing. The PCSRF program priorities are described below in ranked order. Eligible projects that address factors limiting the productivity of Pacific salmon listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), and/or are necessary for the exercise of tribal treaty fishing rights or native subsistence fishing. Eligible projects that monitor habitat restoration actions, fish population status and trends, and/or support the exercise of tribal-treaty fishing rights, Native subsistence fishing, or conducting watershed-scale or larger recovery planning. All other eligible projects consistent with the Congressional authorization with a demonstrated need for PCSRF funding.
