Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR WA Salmon Watch Program (Funding Opportunity Number L13AS00128) is a Bureau of Land Management discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement to support Salmon Watch, an annual environmental education effort focused on wild fish conservation and watershed management. The program is built around hands-on learning intended to help students and other participants understand why healthy watersheds matter, how wild fish fit into those systems, and how informed civic decision-making influences natural resource outcomes over time. The overall goal is to strengthen environmental literacy by giving participants direct exposure to local natural heritage and the real-world tradeoffs involved in conserving fish habitat.
For 2013, the program projected direct engagement with about 30 teachers and roughly 900 high school students in the Portland metropolitan area, primarily through field-based experiences. These field trips are meant to move beyond classroom theory by putting students in watershed settings where they can observe ecological conditions, see seasonal fish-related phenomena, and connect land and water management choices to fish conservation. The emphasis is not only on science learning, but also on building a sense of stewardship and responsibility as future community members and decision makers.
The opportunity falls under CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management) and is categorized under Natural Resources. BLM anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $75,000. Individual award amounts were expected to range from a floor of $1,000 to a ceiling of $5,000, and the announcement indicated no cost sharing or matching requirement. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was open to a broad range of applicant types, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full announcement.
Key dates for the 2013 cycle included a posted date of July 12, 2013, with an application closing date of August 8, 2013 (original and current closing dates were the same). The opportunity was later archived on July 11, 2014. Applicants were directed to use the application materials provided through the announcement package, and anyone unable to access the documents electronically was instructed to contact the BLM Grants Management Officer, Sheryl Dowley, at 503-808-6243 or sdowley@blm.gov for assistance.
