Opportunity Summary:

The BLM NM Rural Crimes Initiative with San Juan County Sheriff Office grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM NM NOI 09 1470) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior to support rural law enforcement efforts tied to Bureau of Land Management interests in New Mexico. The purpose of the award is narrowly focused: it is intended to fund enhanced investigative equipment that will strengthen the safety and effectiveness of Rural Crime Initiative investigation operations. In practical terms, the announcement signals federal support for improving investigative capacity in rural areas where crimes affecting public lands or surrounding communities may require specialized tools, better evidence collection, improved documentation, or safer field operations.

This opportunity was structured as a single expected award, with total estimated funding of $48,000. The award ceiling and award floor were both set at $48,000, meaning the grant amount was fixed rather than offered across a range. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient was not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The funding instrument type was a grant, and the activity category was listed as "Other," clarified as support for a Rural Crimes Initiative with law enforcement.

Eligibility was limited and explicitly directed to a specific entity. Although the general eligibility field references "Others" with additional clarification, the eligibility statement makes it clear that the grant was intended for the San Juan County Sheriff Office. That indicates this was not an open competitive opportunity for a broad pool of applicants, but rather a targeted award designed to support a particular local law enforcement partner.

From an administrative timeline perspective, the opportunity was posted on September 10, 2009, created on September 11, 2009, and had an original and current closing date of September 15, 2009, reflecting a very short application window. It was archived on October 10, 2009, which typically indicates the opportunity was closed out in the grants portal after the application period ended. The listing references CFDA number 15.236 (Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management), which is a common catalog classification used for certain Department of the Interior assistance listings, even when the on-the-ground activity in this case is focused on law enforcement support connected to rural crime issues.

For applicants or interested parties seeking the full announcement at the time, the notice pointed to Grants.gov for more details. A point of contact was provided for access issues: Janet Y. Huff (jhuff@blm.gov).
