Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM CA Monitoring American Black Oystercatcher and Seabirds" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00097) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) California funding notice aimed at improving understanding and protection of coastal bird populations, with a particular emphasis on the American Black Oystercatcher and other seabirds found on the CCNM. The central purpose was twofold: first, to increase knowledge about these seabird populations through monitoring and related field work, and second, to actively share what is learned through public outreach and environmental education. In practical terms, the opportunity was designed to support efforts that document seabird presence and status while also translating scientific findings into accessible information that helps the public recognize coastal bird habitat needs and understand how human disturbance can negatively affect birds and their nesting, foraging, and resting areas.
This was a discretionary funding opportunity offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the federal agency in the project compared with a standard grant. The program fell under the Natural Resources funding activity category and was associated with CFDA number 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. BLM anticipated making a single award under this announcement, indicating a relatively focused project scope or a preference for one lead organization to coordinate monitoring and education activities. The estimated total funding available was $95,000, with both the award ceiling and the maximum amount set at $95,000, and an award floor listed at $500. No cost sharing or matching requirement was specified, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The announcement was posted and created on May 16, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 15, 2012, and it was archived on July 15, 2012. Applicants seeking full details were directed to Grants.gov via the additional information link provided in the announcement. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact was Leona B. Parker, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at 530-252-5338 and by email at lparker@blm.gov.
