Opportunity Summary:
The BLM CA CCS Susanville Depot Visitor Center Operations grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM CA NOI 09 2009) is a Bureau of Land Management (Department of the Interior) cooperative agreement focused on supporting visitor services and recreation education in the Eagle Lake Field Office area of northern California. The project centers on operating the Susanville Railroad Depot as a public-facing hub that functions both as a trailhead facility and as a visitor education and information center for the Bizz Johnson National Recreation Trail. In practical terms, the funded partner would be responsible for providing direct customer service to members of the public who are visiting or planning to visit nearby public lands, helping them navigate recreation options, rules, safety considerations, and local points of interest.
A major part of the scope involves day-to-day operation and upkeep of the Depot as a functional, welcoming facility. That includes maintaining the building and its surrounding grounds, with specific attention to landscaping, lighting, and parking areas so the site remains safe, accessible, and presentable for visitors. Beyond facility operations, the opportunity emphasizes public education to encourage responsible recreation behavior on BLM-managed lands. The recipient is expected to promote widely used stewardship and ethics programs such as Leave No Trace and Tread Lightly, distributing information and helping visitors understand how to minimize impacts, respect trail etiquette, and protect natural and cultural resources while enjoying the area.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary award under the Natural Resources activity category, using the Cooperative Agreement funding instrument and associated with CFDA number 15.238 (Challenge Cost Share). Although the program context is Challenge Cost Share, the posting specifies that there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement for applicants under this particular announcement. The BLM anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $500,000 and an award ceiling of $500,000 (award floor listed as $600). Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education, and the announcement reiterates that the recipient must be a nonprofit.
