Opportunity Summary:

Listed on Grants.gov as Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00049, the program was designed to raise public awareness about why native plant conservation and restoration matter in southern Nevada, while also creating hands-on ways for youth and community members to participate directly in conservation and education activities connected to the BLM plant conservation program.
This opportunity used a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means the BLM expected to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, coordination on planning, field activities, and deliverables). The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and it fell under CFDA 15.235, Southern Nevada Public Land Management. The announcement indicated no cost-sharing or matching requirement, making it possible for applicants to propose fully federally funded work up to the available amount.
Financially, the estimated total funding available was $120,000, with an award ceiling of $120,000 and an award floor of $0. Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning any type of entity could apply as long as it met any clarifications that might have been included in the full announcement. The timeline for the posting and application window was short: it was posted and created on March 16, 2011, with an original and current closing date of March 31, 2011. The opportunity was later archived on April 30, 2011.
At its core, the project purpose emphasized both ecological outcomes and public-facing education. On the ecological side, the program centered on native plant conservation and restoration work relevant to southern Nevada landscapes. On the community side, it aimed to connect the public, and especially youth, to real conservation experiences, building awareness and practical understanding of native plants, restoration needs, and stewardship on public lands managed by the BLM.
