Opportunity Summary:

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary grant opportunity titled "BLM NV Southern NV District Office Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act Hazardous Fuels Reduction Project under Round 12" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00075). The program was issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning BLM expected to have substantial involvement with the recipient during planning and implementation rather than simply providing funds with minimal oversight. The opportunity sat within the Natural Resources funding activity category and was tied to CFDA 15.235, which corresponds to the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act (SNPLMA) program.

The main purpose of the opportunity was to partner with an eligible recipient to carry out hazardous fuels reduction treatments within the Lake Tahoe Basin. While the announcement text provided is brief, hazardous fuels reduction in this context generally refers to work intended to reduce the risk, intensity, or spread of wildland fire by managing vegetative fuels. That can include activities such as thinning overly dense stands, removing ladder fuels, treating brush, disposing of woody debris, or other treatment methods consistent with land management plans and environmental compliance requirements. The emphasis on partnership suggests the recipient would coordinate closely with BLM on treatment priorities, schedules, compliance steps, and reporting, with BLM playing an active role throughout the project period.

Eligibility for this particular Round 12 opportunity was limited to state governments. The announcement specified no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal funds as a condition of award. The estimated total funding available was listed as $151,600. The award ceiling and floor were both shown as $0, which typically indicates that the funding amount could vary by proposal and final negotiations, or that the posting system did not capture per-award limits even though an overall estimate was provided.

Key dates were tight. The opportunity was posted and created on April 24, 2012, with an original and current closing date of April 30, 2012, giving applicants less than a week to submit. The opportunity was later archived on June 30, 2012, indicating it is no longer open and was part of a time-limited funding round.

Applicants were directed to use the announcement's "APPLICATION" materials (linked in the original posting) for full instructions and the application package. For technical issues accessing the full announcement electronically, the point of contact was Gretchen W. Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 775-861-6740 or by email at geykelbosh@blm.gov.
