Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR WA Baker County Restoration Project (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00183) is a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and is structured as a cooperative agreement. It falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.228, National Fire Plan, specifically the Wildland Urban Interface Community Fire Assistance program area. The project is focused on wildfire preparedness and community risk reduction in Baker County by supporting planning, outreach, and coordination work that strengthens local wildfire resilience over time.
The core purpose of the grant is to maintain and update the County Wildfire Protection Plan, which typically serves as a locally driven roadmap for identifying wildfire hazards, prioritizing mitigation actions, and aligning agencies and communities around shared risk-reduction strategies. Alongside keeping that plan current, the project continues funding for ongoing community outreach and education efforts, which can include public information activities, community meetings, and materials or programming designed to improve awareness of wildfire risk and encourage practical mitigation steps by residents and stakeholders. The opportunity also emphasizes coordination of new items that may emerge as advisory team outreach goals, indicating that the work is expected to remain responsive to evolving local needs and priorities, with continued collaboration among partners rather than a one-time, static deliverable.
BLM anticipated making one award under this announcement. The estimated total funding for the opportunity was listed as $150,000, with an award ceiling of $60,000 and an award floor of $1, meaning proposals could range widely but could not exceed the stated maximum per award. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility or selection, which can make the opportunity more accessible to smaller organizations or local entities with limited budgets.
Eligibility was listed as "unrestricted," meaning it was open to any type of entity, subject to any clarifications that may have been included in the full announcement materials. The opportunity was posted on July 24, 2012, and had a very short application window, with both the original and current closing date set at July 30, 2012. The announcement was later archived on July 23, 2013. For applicants needing the complete instructions and application package, the notice directed users to the "APPLICATION" tab in the original posting to download the full announcement materials. The listed point of contact was Jessica Clark at BLM, reachable by phone at 503-808-6226 or by email at j1clark@blm.gov, with a note to contact her if there were problems accessing the announcement electronically.
