Opportunity Summary:

The BLM OR WA Coos Basin Restoration Project (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00235) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) focused on natural resources work in Oregon and Washington. The core purpose of the project is to improve conditions across the Coos Basin by enhancing fish and wildlife habitat, improving water quality, and increasing overall fish productivity. In practical terms, this type of restoration-focused funding generally supports on-the-ground actions that help rivers, streams, riparian areas, wetlands, and associated habitats function better for aquatic species and the broader ecosystem.

Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the agency expects substantial involvement during the project period (for example, coordination on technical approaches, monitoring, or implementation priorities) rather than a simple pass-through grant. The opportunity anticipated making one award. While the notice listed an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000, the stated award ceiling for an individual award was $65,000, with an award floor of $1. No cost sharing or matching requirement was indicated, so applicants were not required to bring matching funds to be eligible.

Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations that have IRS 501(c)(3) status and are not institutions of higher education. The program is associated with CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management), reflecting its emphasis on conservation, habitat improvement, and resource management outcomes rather than infrastructure or unrelated community development work.

The posting date and creation date were both July 23, 2014, and the application deadline was August 22, 2014 (with the original and current closing dates the same). The opportunity was later archived on July 22, 2015, meaning it is no longer open for applications. For applicants at the time, full instructions and required forms were provided through the application package linked in the announcement. The listed point of contact for assistance was Jessica Clark at the BLM (503-808-6226, j1clark@blm.gov).
