Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announced a discretionary cooperative agreement opportunity titled "BLM NV Cooperative BLM Nevada Wilderness Areas and Wilderness Study Areas Project" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00182) to support on-the-ground protection of BLM-managed wilderness areas and Wilderness Study Areas (WSAs) in Nevada. The core purpose of the project is to strengthen stewardship of these sensitive public lands by partnering with an organization capable of mobilizing and managing a large volunteer base to help collect field data, conduct monitoring, and carry out restoration activities. In practical terms, the BLM is looking for a partner that can put people in the field to track conditions, document impacts, and assist with conservation work that helps maintain wilderness character and resource integrity across Nevada BLM lands.
This opportunity falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.231, "Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management." The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates a higher level of involvement and collaboration by the federal agency compared to a standard grant. The BLM planned to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $150,000. The stated award ceiling is $150,000 and the award floor is $10,000, indicating the BLM anticipated proposals could vary in scope and budget as long as they supported the project objectives. No cost sharing or matching requirement was listed, meaning applicants were not required to provide non-federal match funds to be considered competitive, although applicants could potentially leverage volunteer time and partner support as part of their overall approach.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was broadly open to any type of entity, subject to any clarifications that would have appeared in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on July 20, 2012, and the application closing date was August 10, 2012, with the opportunity later archived on September 10, 2012. Applicants were directed to retrieve the full announcement and application package through the application materials associated with the posting, which would have contained the detailed scope of work, proposal instructions, evaluation criteria, and any specific requirements related to volunteer management, reporting, safety, field protocols, or coordination with BLM staff.
For questions or assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Gretchen W. Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist at the BLM, reachable by phone at 775-861-6740 or by email at geykelbosh@blm.gov.
