Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announced a discretionary funding opportunity to support implementation of the Black Rock-High Rock National Conservation Area (NCA) Resource Management Plan through a cooperative agreement. The project is administered through the BLM Nevada Winnemucca District Office and focuses on on-the-ground work and public-facing programs on BLM-managed lands in Nevada. The core purpose is to bring in a qualified partner to help the BLM develop and deliver educational and interpretive programs and services, while also carrying out land conservation activities that include maintenance and resource protection projects tied to the NCA's management goals.
This opportunity, listed under Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00177 and categorized under Natural Resources with a CFDA/assistance listing of 15.225 (Recreation Resource Management), anticipated making a single award. The estimated total funding available was $500,000, with an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $75,000. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which generally lowers the barrier to entry for applicants that may have strong technical capacity but limited ability to provide non-federal match.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any clarifications that may have been included in the full announcement materials. The funding instrument type was a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, which typically indicates the BLM expected substantial involvement during the project, such as collaboration on planning, coordination, approvals, and ongoing project oversight as the partner delivers the agreed-upon work.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on July 19, 2012, with an original and final closing date of August 3, 2012, and it was later archived on September 3, 2012. Applicants were directed to retrieve complete instructions and the application package through the announcement's application materials. For access issues or assistance, the point of contact listed was Gretchen W. Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 775-861-6740 or by email at gretcheneykelbosh@blm.gov.
In practical terms, the project’s scope blended visitor-oriented work (education and interpretation) with stewardship and protection actions (conservation, maintenance, and resource protection). That combination suggests the BLM was looking for a partner capable of both communicating resource values to the public and helping safeguard those resources through direct field projects, likely aligned with the NCA's resource management priorities and visitor use needs.
