Reclamation is providing $49,000.00 in Fiscal Year 2018. The purpose of this project will assist the CDFW in accomplishing its public purpose by determining susceptibility of waterbodies in California to infestation by quagga or zebra mussels. Susceptible waterbodies are those lakes, reservoirs and impoundments that have a high enough concentration of calcium to allow mussels to survive and viably produce. Once identified, these waterbodies will be the focus of CDFW efforts to prevent introduction of quagga and zebra mussels. The project is not primarily for the direct benefit of Reclamation or other Federal government agencies. (Refer to the Notice of Intent to Award Announcement No. BOR-MP-18-N027 for additional information).
