Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM OR WA Integrating Cascade Siskiyou National Monument Aquatic Resource Inventories and Monitoring, Medford District, Oregon" is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) cooperative agreement focused on improving aquatic resource knowledge and monitoring capacity within the Cascade Siskiyou National Monument in southern Oregon. It is designed to support on-the-ground inventory and monitoring work that strengthens both basic scientific understanding and practical land and water management decisions. The core purpose is to generate detailed, field-based descriptions of aquatic and riparian systems, including physical habitat characteristics, riparian zone condition, water quality, and the makeup and structure of biological communities associated with these waters.
A central feature of the project is its collaborative model. The BLM anticipates working closely with local university students and faculty, along with regional National Park Service partners and local BLM staff. Beyond producing usable environmental data, the project is intended to build working relationships among agencies and academic partners while supporting environmental science education and hands-on training for students and local residents. In practice, this means the funded work is expected to serve dual roles: delivering technical information useful for managing aquatic resources in the monument, and providing an applied learning and professional development pathway for participating students.
Administratively, this is a discretionary funding opportunity under the Natural Resources activity category, offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the awarding agency in the funded work (such as coordination, technical input, and shared project execution). The opportunity was posted on May 24, 2011, with an application closing date of June 10, 2011, and was later archived on May 24, 2012. The program anticipates making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $6,000. The award ceiling is $6,000 and the award floor is $1, indicating a single small award intended to fund a targeted project scope rather than a large multi-year program. No cost sharing or matching funds are required.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, aligning with the stated intent to leverage university participation, student involvement, and faculty expertise. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Teresa Spickerman, Grants Management Officer, at 503-808-6243 or teresaespickerman@blm.gov, with the general announcement hosted through Grants.gov.
