Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Nevada (U.S. Department of the Interior) offered this discretionary funding opportunity under the title "BLM Nevada 2016 Challenge Cost Share Program All projects" (Funding Opportunity Number L16AS00069). The program was set up to fund projects through cooperative agreements, meaning BLM anticipated working closely with selected partners on planning and implementation rather than simply issuing a standalone grant with minimal agency involvement. The funding activity focus falls under natural resources, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.238.
The core purpose of the opportunity was to form partnerships to carry out a wide range of Challenge Cost Share (CCS) projects on or benefiting public lands and related resources in Nevada. The types of projects BLM explicitly indicated interest in included resource inventory and monitoring (collecting data on conditions and trends), environmental education (public outreach and learning initiatives), habitat and plant community restoration (repairing or improving ecological function), cultural site protection (safeguarding heritage and archaeological resources), special status species management (actions supporting sensitive, threatened, or otherwise priority species), and recreation management (projects that improve visitor use, safety, and sustainability). In short, the announcement was broad and intentionally flexible, designed to support multiple kinds of on-the-ground conservation, stewardship, education, and management efforts that align with BLM priorities.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was open to any type of entity, with the caveat that applicants needed to follow any additional eligibility clarifications that might have been included in the full announcement. BLM expected to make about 10 awards, with an award ceiling of $75,000 per project. The notice was created and posted on March 22, 2016, and the application deadline (original and current) was May 23, 2016.
