Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR WA Clackamas County Community Service opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00017) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement to support hands-on community service projects carried out by youth crews in Clackamas County, Oregon, in coordination with the BLM Salem District. The central idea of the program is to build on an existing working relationship between the BLM and local youth who are required to complete community service hours, while also advancing the BLM mission of protecting public lands, recreation sites, and related facilities. Rather than being a classroom-based or research-focused effort, the work is practical and field-based: youth crews perform outdoor recreation and natural resource projects on BLM-administered lands, helping maintain and improve the condition, usability, and stewardship of these public areas.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, this was a relatively small, targeted award within the Natural Resources activity category, specifically tied to CFDA 15.225 (Recreation Resource Management). The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $19,010. The award ceiling was also $19,010, while the award floor was listed as $1, indicating flexibility in the minimum possible award size but a clear cap on total funding. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of receiving the award, which can make participation more feasible for local governments, nonprofits, or other organizations that may have limited budgets for match.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any further clarifications that may have appeared in the full announcement on Grants.gov. The timeline shows the opportunity was posted on January 23, 2011, created on January 24, 2011, and closed on February 22, 2011, with an archive date of February 23, 2011. In practical terms, this indicates a short application window of about one month, which is common for smaller, relationship-based cooperative agreements where the agency may already have an established project model, an existing partner network, or a clear local need.
For applicants or stakeholders who needed help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Teresa Spickerman, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 503-808-6243 or teresaespickerman@blm.gov. The official listing and any full application package details were provided via Grants.gov. Overall, the opportunity was designed to deliver dual public benefits: giving youth a structured way to meet community service obligations while providing the BLM with organized labor for priority recreation and resource-management tasks that support safer, cleaner, and better-maintained public lands in the Salem District area.
