About the company

Potomac River Fisheries Commission, an interstate government entity headquartered in Colonial Beach, Virginia, receives federal grants from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to modernize commercial fisheries data collection and reporting infrastructure across its Potomac River jurisdiction. The Commission operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient; it holds no federal contracts, no seats on contract vehicles, and no subcontracting relationships.

The Commission's entire federal footprint derives from a single customer — NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service — with ten awards totaling $4.7 million in combined obligation across the past two decades. All work is grant-funded, not contract-based. Recent awards center on the Atlantic Coastal Cooperative Statistics Program (ACCSP) and the Atlantic Coastal Fisheries Cooperative Management Act (CFDA 11.474 and CFDA 11.437). The Commission received $349,865 in February 2026 for Year 5 of commercial fisheries data system modernization, transitioning shellfish and finfish permit holders from paper-based catch-and-effort reporting to electronic trip-level data collection via ACCSP eTrips tools and building a functional interface between the Commission's SAIL licensing system and NOAA's SAFIS database. A follow-on $296,482 award in February 2027 funds Year 6 maintenance, focusing on near-complete harvester adoption through targeted outreach, training, and incentive-based strategies while maintaining data continuity and system enhancements for improved data validation and automated processing. Work is performed at Colonial Beach, Virginia, and supports interstate fisheries management, stock assessments of quota-managed species including Atlantic Menhaden, and compliance with coastwide data standards.

Two grants reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. The Commission's federal footprint reflects its institutional role as a state-interstate fishery agency partner to NOAA in modernizing data systems for Atlantic coastal fisheries management.
