Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR WA Crinite Mariposa Lily Monitoring opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00041) is a Bureau of Land Management discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. It focuses on natural resources work in Oregon and Washington BLM-managed lands, specifically targeting the Crinite Mariposa Lily. The central purpose is to design and put in place a practical, science-based monitoring protocol that can produce an accurate estimate of the species population and define clear management thresholds, meaning measurable trigger points that signal when conditions may be declining enough to warrant management action.
The work described emphasizes two linked outcomes. First, the project is intended to resurvey known lily populations located on BLM land, updating baseline information on where the plant occurs and how abundant it is. Second, and more importantly, it aims to establish a monitoring approach that is rigorous enough to detect real change over time rather than noise caused by inconsistent methods, variable survey effort, or natural year-to-year fluctuation. In other words, the protocol is expected to be structured so repeated surveys can reliably show whether the population is stable, increasing, or declining, and provide defensible information that BLM can use to decide if management intervention is needed.
From a funding and administration standpoint, the announcement anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The estimated total funding available was listed as $22,000, with an award ceiling of $46,000 and an award floor of $1. The opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching funds, and eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was open to a wide range of applicant types as long as they met any requirements or clarifications included in the full notice. The announcement was posted and created on March 7, 2011, and it originally closed on March 18, 2011 (with the same date listed as the current closing date). The opportunity later archived on April 18, 2012.
Administrative details in the listing indicate that additional announcement materials were available through Grants.gov, and applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact Teresa E. Spickerman, Grants Management Officer at BLM, at 503-808-6243 or teresaespickerman@blm.gov. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted applied conservation monitoring effort: updating field data for a sensitive plant on public lands and translating that data into a repeatable monitoring framework that supports timely, evidence-based management decisions.
FAQs: BLM OR/WA Crinite Mariposa Lily Monitoring (L11AS00041)
What is this grant opportunity?
This is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement for the "BLM OR WA Crinite Mariposa Lily Monitoring" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00041) under CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management.
What is the main purpose of the project?
The central purpose is to design and implement a practical, science-based monitoring protocol for the Crinite Mariposa Lily that can (1) produce an accurate estimate of the species population and (2) define clear management thresholds (measurable trigger points that indicate when conditions may be declining enough to warrant management action).
What species is the project focused on?
The project specifically targets the Crinite Mariposa Lily.
Where will the work take place?
The work focuses on natural resources activities on BLM-managed lands in Oregon and Washington, specifically where Crinite Mariposa Lily populations occur on BLM land.
What are the two key outcomes the announcement emphasizes?
The announcement emphasizes two linked outcomes: (1) resurveying known Crinite Mariposa Lily populations on BLM land to update baseline information on location and abundance, and (2) establishing a rigorous monitoring approach that can detect real change over time rather than changes caused by inconsistent methods, uneven survey effort, or natural year-to-year fluctuation.
What does "resurvey known populations" mean in this context?
It means returning to already-known Crinite Mariposa Lily sites located on BLM lands and collecting updated field information to refresh baseline data on where the plant occurs and how abundant it is.
What is meant by a "science-based monitoring protocol"?
In this opportunity, it refers to a monitoring approach structured to support repeated surveys over time so that results can reliably show whether the population is stable, increasing, or declining, using methods rigorous enough to separate true trends from noise caused by methodological inconsistency or natural variation.
Why does the opportunity emphasize detecting "real change" over time?
The protocol is expected to be robust enough that repeated surveys can distinguish actual population trends from apparent changes that could occur due to inconsistent survey methods, differences in survey effort, or normal year-to-year fluctuations.
What are "management thresholds" as described in the notice?
Management thresholds are measurable trigger points defined by the monitoring protocol that signal when conditions may be declining enough to warrant management action or intervention.
How will the results be used by BLM?
The monitoring protocol and resulting data are intended to provide defensible information BLM can use to decide whether management intervention is needed for the Crinite Mariposa Lily on BLM-managed lands.
What type of award instrument is this?
The opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement.
What is the CFDA number and program name associated with this opportunity?
The listing cites CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management.
