Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR WA North Spit Habitat Restoration opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00222) is a Bureau of Land Management cooperative agreement focused on improving upland habitat on the Coos Bay North Spit in Oregon. The program is designed as a collaboration between BLM and a nonprofit partner to carry out on-the-ground habitat restoration and maintenance work, with a strong emphasis on actions that support sensitive coastal wildlife habitat, including Western Snowy Plover habitat enhancement.
The scope of work centers on practical restoration activities that improve or maintain habitat conditions in designated restoration areas on the North Spit. The announcement lists examples of potential projects, including purchasing, hauling, and spreading oyster shell to enhance Western Snowy Plover habitat, ongoing habitat maintenance within habitat restoration areas, and mechanical habitat work such as tractor plowing and disking as well as bulldozing where appropriate. In addition to field operations, the opportunity also contemplates educational outreach projects, suggesting that public-facing communication or stewardship components may be part of the overall effort depending on project design and partner capabilities.
This is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement instrument, which typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency during planning and implementation rather than a simple pass-through grant. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing is 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The posting and creation date were July 18, 2014, with an original and current closing date of August 18, 2014, and the opportunity was archived on July 17, 2015.
Funding details indicate one expected award. The opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $750,000, while also listing an award ceiling of $40,000 and an award floor of $1, which suggests applicants needed to consult the full announcement for how funding would be structured across tasks, phases, or years. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated, meaning applicants were not required to provide matching funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. Applicants were directed to the full announcement and application package via the application materials referenced in the posting. For access issues or questions, the listed contact was Jessica Clark at 503-808-6226 or j1clark@blm.gov.
