Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM ID Implementation of the Idaho CWCS 2010" (Funding Opportunity Number: BLM ID RFA 10 1807) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior focused on natural resources work in Idaho. The program is designed to support on-the-ground public land management actions that benefit important fish and wildlife species, rare plants, and the habitats they rely on, using a cooperative, cost-share style partnership with the State of Idaho. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at helping implement priorities from Idaho's Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy (CWCS) as it stood in 2010, with Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funds used to carry out conservation and habitat-related activities on public lands in coordination with the state.
Funding is provided through a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates a closer working relationship between the federal agency and the recipient than a standard grant, often including substantial federal involvement in planning, coordination, or oversight. The opportunity is listed under CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The announcement anticipated making about 10 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $300,000 and an award ceiling of $100,000 per project, meaning individual awards were not expected to exceed that limit.
Eligibility is narrowly defined. Only state government applicants are eligible, and the announcement specifies that the funding uses Sikes Act authority, which allows BLM to enter into agreements with state agencies for conservation and resource management purposes. It is also explicitly Idaho-specific, indicating it is intended for the State of Idaho rather than a broader multi-state competition. Although the effort is described as promoting a cost-share partnership, the posted details state that there is no cost sharing or matching requirement for applicants under this opportunity.
Key dates show that the opportunity was originally posted on December 2, 2009, with a creation date of February 17, 2010. The closing date changed due to a system conversion: the original closing date was March 29, 2010, but the updated closing date became March 12, 2010. The opportunity later moved to archive status on April 11, 2010. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for assistance accessing the announcement was Melinda D. Ritacco, Grants Management Officer, reachable by email at mritacco@blm.gov.
