Opportunity Summary:

The BLM CA CESU San Joaquin Woolly Threads Genetics Study (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00209) was a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on natural resources research and conservation. The project centered on San Joaquin woolly threads, with the primary scientific purpose of improving understanding of how the species varies genetically across its range. Specifically, the work was intended to determine whether different populations show variation in chromosome number and to measure how much genetic diversity exists within individual populations as well as between separate populations. In practical terms, the results would help clarify population structure and inform conservation and management decisions by identifying how distinct or connected populations may be and whether certain groups may be more genetically vulnerable.

Funding was to be provided through a cooperative agreement, indicating that BLM expected to have substantial involvement in the project as it was carried out (for example, coordination on objectives, data needs, or deliverables). The opportunity anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $95,000. The listed award ceiling was $95,000 and the award floor was $500, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive.

Eligibility was limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The funding activity fell under the CFDA program number 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The announcement was posted and created on August 1, 2012, with an original and final closing date of August 31, 2012, and it was later archived on October 15, 2013. Additional details and the full announcement were available through Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for access issues was Leona B. Parker, Grants Management Officer, at 530-252-5338 or lparker@blm.gov.
