Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "BLM OR WA Five Creeks Riparian and Rangeland Restoration, Burns District, Oregon" under Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00111. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project activities and implementation rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant. The effort sits within the natural resources category and is associated with CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The core purpose of the project is to restore degraded rangelands and riparian habitats that have been impacted by juniper encroachment, a common issue in portions of eastern Oregon where expanding juniper stands can reduce native understory vegetation, alter hydrology, and diminish habitat quality for wildlife.
The project is centered on the Five Creeks Project Area within the Burns District in Oregon. The immediate, on-the-ground work described for the start of the agreement includes juniper cutting to reduce or remove encroaching trees, along with riparian planting intended to improve streamside vegetation and overall riparian function. While the initial focus is the Five Creeks area, the BLM indicates an intent to broaden restoration to additional areas across the district as further funding becomes available. In practical terms, that suggests this award is meant to support an initial phase of work that could serve as a foundation for a larger, multi-area restoration program if resources allow.
Funding for the opportunity is relatively small and targeted. The estimated total funding is $10,380, with an award ceiling of $10,380 and an award floor listed as $1. Only one award is expected. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces financial barriers for eligible applicants and indicates the federal funds can cover the full approved project cost up to the ceiling amount.
Eligibility is limited to special district governments, so the applicant pool is focused on local governmental entities such as conservation districts or similar special-purpose districts that commonly partner on rangeland and watershed restoration projects. The posting date and creation date are both May 24, 2011, and the application closing date is June 10, 2011 (with the original and current closing dates matching). The opportunity was archived on May 24, 2012, indicating it is no longer active but remains part of the historical record for reference.
For applicants or interested partners needing access to the full announcement or experiencing issues retrieving it online, the listing provides a contact person: Teresa Spickerman at the BLM, reachable at 503-808-6243 or via email at teresaespickerman@blm.gov. An additional information link is provided through Grants.gov, where the full solicitation and any required application forms and instructions would have been hosted during the open period.
