California Science Center Foundation CollectionsThe California Science Center Foundation has been granted a permit under Fish and Game Code Section 2081(a) by the Department of Fish and Wildlife, Region 7 - Marine, Monterey, to collect steelhead trout for educational and permanent collection purposes. The permit allows for the take of steelhead trout through various sampling methods including hook and line, beach seining, purse seining, and midwater trawling, all conducted year-round through December 31, 2028. These activities are intended to support the Foundation’s educational mission by acquiring specimens for display and public learning, with all operations subject to specific conditions outlined in the permit to ensure compliance with wildlife regulations. The sampling program is focused on marine species and is designed to contribute to the permanent collections of the California Science Center. The permit is administered by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, with Dylan Inskeep, Environmental Scientist, listed as the primary point of contact and Erin Shusterman identified as the project applicant. The activity is confined to California waters and follows federal and state guidelines for non-commercial scientific and educational collection. While no solicitation number or NAICS code is assigned, the permit was posted on June 24, 2026, and remains valid until the end of 2028. All collection activities must align with conservation objectives and are subject to monitoring to prevent undue impact on steelhead populations and marine ecosystems.

Grant Notice: On-Demand Gear Grant and Research ProgramThe Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (MA DMF) has issued a solicitation for commercial fishers to participate in the 2026 On-Demand Gear Grant and Research Program, targeting activity during the fixed-gear closure seasons in specified restricted fishing areas within Massachusetts waters. This program invites eligible lobster (fixed gear) and mobile gear fishers to test and deploy on-demand fishing gear technology, including electronic transducers, satellite communications, and related software, as part of a research initiative to evaluate alternatives to traditional gear that reduce environmental impacts while maintaining fishery access in closure zones. Participation requires holding a valid 2025 Massachusetts commercial fishing permit, renewal by February 28, 2026, and authorization through an Exempted Fishing Permit (EFP) or Letter of Authorization (LOA) that allows fishing without persistent surface buoy lines in Marine Restricted Areas (MRA) or Seasonal Inshore Restricted Areas (SIRA). Preference is granted to vessels with documented fishing history in the designated restricted areas from either 2012–2014 or 2018–2020. Participants may receive reimbursements up to $35,000 for fixed gear and $6,000 for mobile gear fishers, covering eligible equipment and operational costs. The arrangement is structured as a grant rather than a traditional contract, with no formal CLINs, FAR clauses, or price schedules. Monthly reporting of gear performance, fishing activity, and technical functionality is mandatory during the closure periods, and compliance with state and Northeast Fisheries Science Center EFP regulations is required throughout the program. Applications must be submitted by November 30, 2026, via email to the designated contacts, with ongoing requirements for monthly questionnaire submissions. Administration, acceptance, and regulatory oversight are managed by MA DMF, though formal inspection criteria or payment processing details are not explicitly provided. This initiative underscores a state-led effort to foster innovative gear technology testing to support sustainable fisheries management in Massachusetts.
