Opportunity Summary:

The Bat Surveys at AML Mine Sites opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00306) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement. The basic purpose of the project was to conduct bat surveys at mine openings that were scheduled to be closed for mine safety reasons. In practical terms, the work would help BLM determine whether abandoned mine land (AML) openings were being used by bats (for example, as roosts or hibernation sites) before closures take place, so that safety actions could be carried out while also considering wildlife and habitat protection.

The program anticipated making one award under this announcement. Total estimated funding was $30,000, with an award ceiling of $30,000 and a minimum award amount listed at $7,500. No cost sharing or matching was required, meaning applicants were not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The funding activity category was listed under Consumer Protection, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity was 15.236 (Environmental Quality and Protection, Resource Management), which aligns with the conservation and land management focus of the work.

Eligibility was described as unrestricted, indicating the competition was open to any type of applicant entity unless additional limitations were stated in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on August 23, 2010, and the application window was short: it originally closed on September 6, 2010, which remained the current closing date. The opportunity was later archived on September 15, 2010.
