Opportunity Summary:
The Bear Creek Watershed Enhancement and Restoration opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00134) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant solicitation offered as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category (CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The announcement was posted on June 23, 2010, with an application deadline of July 6, 2010, and it was later archived on July 30, 2010. BLM anticipated making a single award under this opportunity.
The project described is tied to the Bear Creek Watershed Restoration Grant (Phase 2), which BLM received from the California Wildlife Conservation Board on February 28, 2008. The core purpose is watershed enhancement and restoration through on-the-ground actions that improve ecological conditions and resource management outcomes. The scope of work centers on three main activity areas: riparian and upland weed control (targeting invasive or problematic vegetation that can degrade habitat and watershed function), water development and maintenance (supporting water infrastructure or related improvements needed to manage water resources effectively), and revegetation using native species (re-establishing appropriate plant communities to stabilize soils, improve habitat quality, and support long-term watershed resilience).
A notable feature of the opportunity is its collaborative structure. Because it is a cooperative agreement, the award is intended to involve substantial federal involvement and coordination rather than functioning as a hands-off pass-through award. The description also specifies that the project would use University of California, Davis personnel to help meet the shared goals and objectives of the partners, indicating an emphasis on technical expertise, applied research support, monitoring, or implementation assistance coming from UC Davis.
Funding for the opportunity was substantial for a single award: the estimated total funding amount was $900,000, with an award ceiling of $900,000 and an award floor of $500. There was no stated cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, aligning with the stated intent to engage UC Davis personnel and similar academic partners with the capacity to support restoration planning and implementation.
For applicants seeking full details at the time, the announcement referenced Grants.gov as the source for the complete posting. The listed point of contact was Leona B. Parker, Grants Agreements Specialist at BLM (phone 530-252-5338, email lparker@blm.gov), for assistance accessing the full announcement or resolving submission issues.
