Opportunity Summary:
The BLM CO LAKE FORK MONITORING opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00199) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding program focused on environmental quality and protection resource management in Colorado. It supports continued monitoring and watershed-related work in the Lake Fork Watershed near Leadville, Colorado, and it also calls for an expansion of that effort to include coordination or work connected to the Headwaters of the Arkansas Working Group. In practical terms, the grant is aimed at sustaining and building on existing watershed monitoring activities rather than starting a brand-new initiative, with an emphasis on tracking conditions and supporting broader watershed collaboration across connected headwaters areas.
Funding is planned as a single cooperative agreement award, meaning the project is expected to be carried out with substantial involvement from the BLM during implementation rather than as a hands-off pass-through grant. The opportunity anticipates one award total, with an estimated total funding amount of $97,000. The award ceiling is $97,000 and the award floor is $24,250, indicating the BLM expected proposals that could range from smaller scoped efforts up to a full project at the maximum amount, depending on the applicant's approach and the work plan proposed.
A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so recipients should expect to contribute non-federal funds, in-kind services, or other eligible match sources as part of the project budget. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any further clarifications contained in the full announcement instructions, which would normally spell out any specific limitations, documentation needs, or partnership expectations for this particular watershed effort.
The opportunity was posted on June 26, 2015, with an application deadline of August 25, 2015 (original and current closing date are the same). It was archived on September 15, 2015. The CFDA listing associated with the announcement is 15.236, Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management. For applicants needing the complete requirements and application instructions, the announcement directs users to download the full materials from the application section, and provides a grants management point of contact: Yvonne Pier, Grants Management Officer, at ypier@blm.gov.
