Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM ID Columbia Spotted Frogs Genetics - Colorado State University - CESU" is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior focused on natural resource conservation work in Idaho. The project’s purpose is to evaluate the genetics of Columbia spotted frogs, assess their current population status, and determine how well different groups of frogs are connected to each other across the landscape in southwestern Idaho. In practical terms, this type of work typically supports wildlife management decisions by clarifying whether populations are isolated, whether movement corridors still function, and whether genetic diversity is being maintained, all of which can affect long-term species resilience.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management program (CFDA 15.231). The announcement anticipates a single award with an estimated total funding amount of $20,000, and the award ceiling is also $20,000, meaning the project budget is expected to fit within that limit. There is no stated cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is restricted to a specific applicant: Colorado State University, listed as a public, state-controlled institution of higher education, and the title references the CESU framework (Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units), which is commonly used by DOI agencies to partner with universities and other research organizations for applied science and technical assistance. The narrow eligibility indicates this was effectively a targeted or sole-source style notice intended for CSU to perform the work in cooperation with BLM, rather than an open competition among multiple universities or organizations.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on March 6, 2009, with an original and current closing date of March 20, 2009, indicating a short application window. The opportunity was later archived on April 20, 2009, which is typical once a funding cycle closes and awards are processed.
For applicants or stakeholders needing the full announcement details, the notice points to Grants.gov as the source. The contact listed for access issues is Christine K. Shaver at the Bureau of Land Management, reachable via cshaver@blm.gov (also shown as christineshaver@blm.gov).
