Opportunity Summary:
The Aquatic Nuisance Species Prevention and Control, Alaska Statewide grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00295) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) cooperative agreement intended to slow, prevent, and control the spread of non-native aquatic species across Alaska. The core approach described in the announcement is education and outreach, meaning the funded effort is expected to focus on informing and engaging the public and key user groups to reduce the risk of introducing or spreading aquatic nuisance species rather than, for example, large-scale on-the-ground eradication. The geographic scope is statewide, so projects would be designed to have relevance and impact across Alaska rather than being limited to a single community or watershed.
This is a discretionary funding opportunity under the Natural Resources activity category, listed under CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project period (such as coordination, collaboration, or oversight) compared with a standard grant. Only one award was anticipated. The total estimated funding amount for the opportunity was $300,000, but the specific award amount for the expected single award is indicated with an award ceiling of $47,000 and an award floor of $47,000, suggesting a fixed award amount for the selected applicant. No cost sharing or matching requirement was stated, so the applicant would not be required to provide matching funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility was limited to state governments, which narrows the competition to Alaska state entities rather than local governments, tribes, universities, nonprofits, or private organizations. The opportunity was posted on August 19, 2010, with an application closing date of September 10, 2010, and it was archived on October 31, 2010. Additional details and the full announcement were available through Grants.gov at the time of posting.
For administrative and access questions, the notice provided a specific point of contact: Sandee Smith, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 907-271-5193 or by email at s2smith@blm.gov (with a note referencing Lotus Notes).
