加州拨600万美元防金贻贝扩散：三角洲船只消杀站点即日起可申请
加州鱼类与野生动物厅（CDFW）近日开放一笔总额600万美元的拨款，资助在加利福尼亚州 Sacramento–San Joaquin 三角洲一带新建或升级船只消杀防控站点，阻止入侵物种金贻贝从三角洲向外扩散。项目须位于三角洲水域沿线或其中心地带，服务 Yolo、Sacramento、Solano、Contra Costa 与 San Joaquin 五县。
这笔钱只付一次性启动成本。可获资助的项目包括快速消杀系统、船只浸没系统、移动式热水船只与设备消杀装置，以及固定式船只与设备消杀站；设备与物资、场地开发与安装、船只检查培训与器材等费用也在可报销之列。
申请人范围很宽：拥有或经营船只设施的单位、州与地方政府机构、加州原住民部落、公共实体、私营企业与非营利组织均可申请，个人与其他合法实体也在合格之列。申请不要求配套资金，但有配套资金会在评审与遴选中加分。
申请须在2026年12月15日下午4时前通过 CDFW 的 WebGrants 门户提交；该厅定于11月18日上午10时举行线上公开说明会。受资助名单预计2027年7月公布，拨款须在2029年6月前用完。资金来自州政府、依据《2026–27财年预算法案》拨付，以预支与报销两种方式发放；符合资格的非营利组织与联邦承认的部落，预支比例最高可达获拨总额的25%。
金贻贝（学名 Limnoperna fortunei）2024年10月首次在北美被发现，地点是 San Joaquin 县 Stockton 附近 Rough and Ready Island 的一处水质站。它外形与影响都与斑马贻贝、夸加贻贝相近，但能在更宽的水温与盐度范围内立足。
据 CDFW 介绍，金贻贝会与本地鱼类和游钓鱼类争夺食物、助长有害藻华，危及鱼类生存；对休闲活动的影响包括水域关闭、强制检查、下水与入场费用上涨；经济上则会抬高船只、水利基础设施与水电设施的维修成本，减少输水流量，进而波及粮食生产、居民供水与防洪。贻贝最常见的扩散方式，是搭在船只与设备上被无意带到别的水域。

California Offers $6 Million to Stop the Golden Mussel From Spreading Out of the Delta
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has opened $6 million in grant funding to develop or enhance boating decontamination control sites in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta in California, to prevent the invasive golden mussel from spreading out of the Delta. Projects must be on or centrally located to Delta waterways and support the five Delta counties of Yolo, Sacramento, Solano, Contra Costa and San Joaquin.
The funding covers one-time start-up costs. Eligible project types include rapid decontamination systems, boat submersion systems, mobile hot-water watercraft and equipment decontamination units, and stationary decontamination stations. Equipment and supplies, site development and installation, and watercraft inspection training and equipment are also fundable costs.
Eligible applicants include entities that own or operate boating facilities, state and local government agencies, California Native American Tribes, public entities, private entities and nonprofit organizations, as well as individuals and other legal entities. Cost share is not required, but it is encouraged and will benefit project review and selection.
Applications must be submitted through CDFW's WebGrants portal by 4 p.m. on December 15, 2026, and CDFW will hold an online public workshop on November 18, 2026, at 10 a.m. Recipients are expected to be announced in July 2027, and the grant money must be used by June 2029. The funding is state money allocated under the FY 2026-27 Budget Act and will be delivered through advances and reimbursements; qualified nonprofit grantees and federally recognized Tribes may receive advance payments of up to 25 percent of the total award.
The golden mussel (Limnoperna fortunei) was first detected in North America in October 2024, at a water quality station at Rough and Ready Island near Stockton in San Joaquin County. It is similar in appearance and impacts to quagga and zebra mussels, but can establish in waters with wider temperature and salinity ranges.
According to CDFW, golden mussels compete with native and game fish for food and contribute to harmful, fish-killing algal blooms; they can lead to waterbody closures, mandatory inspections and higher launch and entry fees; and they raise repair and maintenance costs for boats, water infrastructure and hydroelectric facilities while reducing water flow for food production, water delivery to homes and flood control. The most common way the mussels spread is by hitchhiking on watercraft and equipment.
Prospective applicants can contact CDFW's Invasive Species Program at [email protected] for more information.
