Opportunity Summary:

The "BLM NV Historical Pinyon Juniper Woodland Distribution in Central Nevada Project" is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Department of the Interior funding notice that serves primarily as a public transparency statement rather than a traditional competitive grant solicitation. Even though it appears in the grants system like other opportunities, the key point is that it is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it announces BLM's intent to fund a specific set of project activities without full and open competition, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument.

The proposed work centers on building and analyzing data about the historical distribution of pinyon-juniper woodlands in central Nevada, with a particular emphasis on understanding how Euro-American settlement and land-use practices may have influenced vegetation patterns over time. The project is framed as a collaboration between the BLM and the University of Nevada, Reno, reflecting a shared interest in reconstructing past vegetation conditions and interpreting changes that matter for present-day land management. The outcomes are intended to support management decisions for existing pinyon-juniper woodlands as well as areas that could reasonably be managed as woodland based on historical evidence and ecological context.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and falls under the Natural Resources activity category. It is associated with CFDA number 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The announcement anticipates a single award with an estimated total funding amount of $113,000, and it states that there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. While the eligibility field is listed as "unrestricted," that detail is largely academic here because the notice clarifies that the agency plans to proceed with a non-competitive award arrangement tied to the cooperative effort described.

Key dates show that the notice was posted and created on July 7, 2009, with an original and current closing date of July 31, 2009, and an archive date of August 31, 2009. Anyone needing access to the full announcement was directed to Grants.gov via the provided link, and questions about obtaining the announcement electronically were routed to the BLM Grants Management Officer listed in the notice, Susan Kaller (skaller@blm.gov).
