Opportunity Summary:
The BLM CO GUFO Yellowstone Mill Tailings Cleanup Project (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00173) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to support an environmental cleanup effort focused on historic mining impacts in Colorado. The work centers on addressing discharging mine waters affecting the Henson Creek watershed, an area described as being approximately 95 percent public lands. In practical terms, the project is aimed at reducing or eliminating mine-related water pollution sources associated with mill tailings and related legacy mining features that are contributing contaminated flows into the watershed.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as coordinating technical direction, oversight, or collaboration during implementation. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing provided is 15.236 (Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management), indicating the project aligns with federal environmental quality and resource protection objectives.
The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $80,000. The award ceiling is $80,000, and the award floor is $2,500, so proposals could range from small targeted efforts up to the full project amount, depending on scope and design. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, meaning applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility is limited to state governments. Key dates show the announcement was posted on July 12, 2010, with an original and final application closing date of July 26, 2010, and the opportunity was later archived on August 31, 2010. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov.
