Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR WA Peterson Road - Juniper Dunes Recreation Area Access opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00061) is a Bureau of Land Management discretionary grant focused on improving lawful public access to BLM-managed lands in the Juniper Dunes Area. The core issue the grant addresses is that the route most commonly used by the public to reach Juniper Dunes, Peterson Road, is about four miles long, but the first two miles are entirely privately owned and, at the time of the announcement, were being used without a formal agreement that guarantees public access. Because of that gap in legal access, the public's ability to reach and enjoy the recreation area is uncertain and could be restricted.
Grant funds are intended to help Franklin County acquire the critical first two miles of Peterson Road and then upgrade that segment to meet county road standards. In practical terms, the project combines a land access component (purchasing the privately owned portion of the road corridor) with an infrastructure component (bringing the road up to a standard that supports safe, reliable public travel). The expected public benefit is straightforward: once the county secures ownership and completes improvements, visitors will have legal, dependable access to the Juniper Dunes Area to pursue recreation opportunities on BLM lands.
This opportunity was structured as a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $716,500. The award ceiling and award floor were both set at $716,500, indicating BLM anticipated funding one project at that fixed amount. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement listed. The eligible applicants were limited to county governments, aligning with the purpose of enabling a county-level purchase and road improvement project. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the CFDA number was 15.225, Recreation Resource Management, which fits the emphasis on public access and recreation management on federal lands.
Key dates for the announcement show it was posted and created on April 5, 2011, with an original and current closing date of April 12, 2011, and an archive date of April 5, 2012. Applicants were directed to download full instructions and the application package through the announcement's application materials. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed grants management contact was Pamella Sterling, Grants Management Officer, at 503-808-6221 or pamsterling@blm.gov.
