Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Air Quality Monitoring, Surface Water/Ground Water Monitoring, Climate Change Studies" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00284) to support environmental monitoring and research on the San Juan Public Lands managed by the BLM. The purpose of the award was to fund work that tracks and evaluates conditions and trends in air quality, surface water and groundwater resources, and climate change-related indicators, with the expectation that the recipient would produce monitoring results, research findings, and formal reports that can be used by land managers to guide stewardship and resource management decisions.
This opportunity was issued as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the BLM expected to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out, such as coordinating priorities, providing oversight, or collaborating on methods and deliverables. The activity area was categorized under Environment, and it aligned with CFDA (now Assistance Listing) 15.236, "Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management," indicating a focus on protecting environmental conditions and improving the technical basis for public-land management.
Funding for the announcement was relatively small and targeted. The estimated total funding amount was $29,300, with an award ceiling of $29,300 and an award floor of $1,200. Only one award was anticipated. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility was limited to private institutions of higher education, meaning private colleges and universities were the intended applicants. The announcement was originally posted on August 16, 2010, with a closing date of August 30, 2010, and it was archived on September 30, 2010. Additional details and full announcement materials were available through Grants.gov at the time.
