Arctic Yukon Kuskokwim Tribal Research and Restoration Program

Bering Sea Fishermens Association managed the coordination and administration of PCSRF funded projects for the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim Tribal Consortium.

Projects funded through this process involved cooperation and or collaboration with tribal, private, federal and state partners. Primary duties under this project included coordinating the annual PCSRF application using the federal government process, writing and amending subcontracts with grant recipients, maintaining the PCSRF database, reports to the AYK SSI partners, budget tracking by project, financial management, gathering individual progress reports and submitting comprehensive progress reports to NOAA Fisheries, coordinating the project selection process and audit compliance process. The project also allowed for staff participation in all NOAA Fisheries events regarding planning, implementation, region-wide coordination, and reporting of PCSRF efforts.

The AYK SSI Program Manager and Bering Sea Fisheries Staff will administer sub-agreement contracts and contracts management and monitoring, including site visits, accounting, program oversight, program support and overhead costs and competitive funding allocation processes including the processing and administrative review of project applications and proposals.
