Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Colorado issued this discretionary funding opportunity, titled "Abandoned Mine Lands (AML) monitoring/maintenance of Henson Creek Operations," to support work in the Henson Creek watershed focused on abandoned mine land hazards and impacts. The central purpose is cooperative, on-the-ground identification and follow-up actions for both known abandoned mine features and any additional sites that may be discovered during field efforts. The work is aimed at reducing public safety risks and limiting exposure to environmental contamination associated with historic mining areas, with the understanding that activities may range from routine monitoring and maintenance to more active closure or reclamation when conditions warrant.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant. The opportunity falls under the Environment and Natural Resources activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.236, "Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management." BLM anticipated making a single award under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $60,000. The award ceiling is also listed as $60,000, and the award floor is $1,500, signaling that while one project was expected, the agency set parameters for potential award sizing within that range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants would not be required to provide non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, meaning the intended applicant pool is Colorado state entities or agencies with appropriate authority and capacity to carry out abandoned mine land monitoring and maintenance work in coordination with BLM. The timeline reflects a short application window: the opportunity was posted on August 27, 2013, created on September 11, 2013, and the closing date was extended from September 6, 2013 to September 13, 2013. Applicants were directed to download the full announcement instructions and application package through the application materials referenced in the listing.
For administrative support or issues accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact is Ruth A. Raisanen at BLM, reachable at (303) 239-3605 and by email at rraisane@blm.gov.
