The Partnerships for Aquatic and Watershed Restoration (PAWR) funding opportunity, issued by the USDA Forest Service, is a mechanism to establish partnerships and support projects addressing aquatic and watershed restoration needs. This opportunity is designed to build relationships with potential and existing partners and encourage collaboration on activities that improve water quality, facilitate aquatic organism passage, and increase the efficiency of restoration efforts on lands managed by the Forest Service. Submissions to this outreach opportunity enable the USDA Forest Service to evaluate ideas and programs for potential federal funding, with the goal of fostering collaborative partnerships that benefit local communities and ensure climate-resilient landscapes. The programβs purpose is to sustainably manage watersheds and enhance ecological integrity across 193 million acres of forest, grasslands, and waterways. Restoration efforts aim to protect and restore water quality, conserve aquatic biodiversity, and manage habitats for fish, wildlife, and plants. These efforts are critical for maintaining hydrologic and ecological functions and for providing educational, recreational, and climate-resilient benefits to the public. The initiative emphasizes science-based approaches and shared priorities with partners to accelerate restoration efforts and expand the capacity to achieve mutual goals. This funding opportunity does not have a specific monetary award ceiling or floor, as it is primarily designed to identify and develop partnership opportunities rather than provide direct funding through grants. Eligible applicants include a wide range of entities, such as for-profit organizations, non-profits, institutions of higher education, federal and state agencies, local and tribal governments, and special purpose districts like conservation and utility districts. The program actively seeks both new and existing partners to broaden participation and engagement in watershed restoration projects. Applicants are required to submit their proposals electronically, ensuring that all forms are properly saved with unique file names and uploaded as attachments. Specific instructions for completing and submitting the required forms are provided in the "Outreach of Interest Template Instructions" document. Applications must be submitted by January 23, 2025, and late submissions will not be accepted. The USDA Forest Service encourages potential partners to carefully review submission requirements and consult with the listed grantor contact for assistance. Applications will be evaluated based on their alignment with the programβs goals, including the potential for collaborative partnerships, the effectiveness of proposed activities in improving watershed and aquatic health, and the capacity to support ecological integrity and climate resilience. The Forest Service seeks projects that can advance shared priorities, promote innovative solutions, and build community engagement around aquatic restoration activities. The original closing date for submissions was February 7, 2025, but it has been updated to January 23, 2025. Additional information, including resources and detailed program guidance, is available through the Fisheries Program page on the USDA Forest Service website. For further inquiries, applicants can contact Robin Taylor-Davenport from the Outreach and Partnership Engagement Branch.
