Opportunity Summary:

The BLM CO Salt Desert Restoration Studies opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00208) is a Bureau of Land Management discretionary funding announcement focused on improving how the BLM manages salt desert ecosystems in Colorado. The core purpose is to support practical, relevant restoration studies that build on-the-ground knowledge and tools the BLM can use to manage, improve, and recover salt desert habitats. A key emphasis is also on helping the agency better mitigate the impacts of management actions that occur in these habitats, both within the applicable field office boundaries and within National Conservation Areas. In plain terms, the BLM is looking for study work that strengthens decision-making for restoration and habitat management in salt desert landscapes.

This funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, meaning the project is expected to involve coordination with the BLM rather than operating as a fully independent effort. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing) is 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The announcement anticipated a single award, indicating the BLM likely intended to select one project or one lead partner to carry out the work described.

The total estimated funding for the opportunity was $70,000, with an award ceiling of $70,000 and an award floor of $17,500. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for applicants that may not have non-federal funds available. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition was generally open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any additional eligibility details that would have been included in the full announcement package.

Timeline-wise, the opportunity was posted and created on July 14, 2014, with an original and current closing date of July 28, 2014, reflecting a short application window. The opportunity was later archived on September 15, 2014. Applicants were directed to the announcement materials available via the application instructions (referenced as the "Application" tab in the original posting) for full proposal requirements, scope details, and submission instructions.

For questions or difficulty accessing the complete announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Yvonne Pier, Grants Management Officer, reachable at ypier@blm.gov.
