Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM ID SRBOP NCA Art Calendar" (Funding Opportunity Number: BLM ID NOI 09 1327) was a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior, specifically tied to Bureau of Land Management recreation and natural resource education work. It was offered as a cooperative agreement under the activity area of Natural Resources, and it was associated with CFDA 15.225, Recreation Resource Management. The project described was straightforward and narrowly scoped: funding was intended to support the production of an art contest calendar connected to an NCA (National Conservation Area). The underlying purpose of the calendar was public-facing outreach, using artwork as a way to increase public knowledge and appreciation of the NCA's natural and cultural resources while also encouraging understanding of, and acceptance for, BLM management decisions and on-the-ground management practices within the NCA.
The opportunity was posted and created on July 27, 2009, with an original and final closing date of August 1, 2009, and it was later archived on August 31, 2009. Only one award was expected. The total estimated funding was $2,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor were set at $2,000, meaning the award amount was fixed rather than a range. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility in practice was limited because this notice functioned as a Notice of Intent rather than an open competitive solicitation. Although the eligible applicant category is listed as "City or township governments," the eligibility information clarifies that the announcement was specifically a Notice of Intent to award funds to the Kuna Chamber of Commerce. In other words, the posting primarily served to document the agency's intent to make a directed award for this small outreach product rather than solicit multiple competing proposals. Anyone needing the full announcement was directed to Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for access issues was Melinda D. Ritacco, Grants Management Officer, reachable at mritacco@blm.gov.
