Cooperative Agreement for Inland Recreational Fisheries Risk Management and Geospatial Vulnerability Analyses

The buyer seeks a risk management service under a cooperative agreement to support projects advancing Administration priorities such as American energy dominance, critical mineral development, water security, infrastructure resilience, and natural hazard preparedness. The recipient must update global inland recreational fisheries data, develop refined species-specific vulnerability estimates at global and U.S. scales, and conduct a U.S.-focused analysis linking vulnerability to harvest and consumption patterns using datasets such as Creel Cat. Eligibility is limited to onshore USA organizations, and performance will take place offsite. Recipients collecting or producing geospatial data with Department of the Interior financial assistance funds must comply with the Geospatial Data Act of 2018, conduct due diligence searches on GeoPlatform.gov, follow FGDC standards, and submit digital GIS files in open formats with feature-level metadata.
