Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary funding opportunity titled "BLM CO RGFO Resource Management Plan (RMP) Revision Recreation Visitor Assessments" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00335). The project was set up as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity area, specifically tied to CFDA 15.225, Recreation Resource Management. Its central purpose was to support the Royal Gorge Field Office in Colorado by gathering solid, on-the-ground information about recreation visitors using multiple data-collection approaches. In practical terms, the work would help the field office better understand who is using BLM-managed public lands in the area, how they are using them, and what patterns or needs are showing up on the ground, with the results intended to inform the ongoing revision of the area resource management plan.
This opportunity anticipated making a single award, with total estimated funding of $150,000. The award range was listed with a floor of $100,000 and a ceiling of $150,000, and it did not require cost sharing or matching funds. Because it was structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, it implied a more hands-on partnership where BLM would work jointly with the recipient throughout the data collection effort, potentially collaborating on study design, methods, scheduling, and the application of findings to planning decisions connected to the RMP revision.
Eligibility for this particular announcement was limited rather than broadly open. While the general eligibility category is shown as "Others" with further clarification in the full notice, the eligibility information provided indicates Colorado Mesa University as the eligible applicant. This suggests the funding was intended for a specific partner with relevant capacity to carry out visitor assessment work, such as designing surveys, conducting field sampling, implementing interview or observation protocols, and producing usable analysis for land management planning.
The announcement timeline was short and clearly defined. It was posted and created on September 2, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 16, 2014. The opportunity was later archived on September 30, 2014. Anyone needing the full application instructions was directed to download the complete announcement from the "Application" tab, and the listed point of contact for access issues was Yvonne Pier, Grants Management Officer, reachable at ypier@blm.gov.
