Opportunity Summary:

The BLM OR WA Upper Maxfield Creek Enhancement grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L13AS00018) is a discretionary funding program offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) focused on natural resource work in western Oregon. The project is centered on Upper Maxfield Creek within the Luckiamute Watershed and is tied to BLM-managed lands in the Salem District. The core goal is to improve aquatic habitat conditions in the watershed by building an active partnership among local individuals, organizations, and community volunteers. In practical terms, the opportunity is meant to support on-the-ground habitat enhancement work while also strengthening local collaboration and stewardship around stream and watershed health.

Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which typically means BLM expects to be involved beyond simply issuing funds, often through shared planning, coordination, technical input, or other forms of substantial federal participation during project implementation. The opportunity was listed under CFDA 15.234 (Secure Rural Schools and Community Self Determination). The announcement indicated an estimated total of $100,000 available, with an expected number of awards of 1. Individual award amounts were stated with an award floor of $1 and an award ceiling of $14,060. Cost sharing or matching was not required, which lowers the barrier for applicants that may not have access to non-federal match funds.

Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was broadly open to many entity types, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full announcement. This kind of language generally signals that nonprofits, local governments, tribes, educational institutions, and potentially other organizations could apply, as long as they meet the requirements laid out in the full application instructions.

The timeline for the solicitation was very short. It was posted on January 22, 2013, with an original and current closing date of January 28, 2013, and it was later archived on January 21, 2014. Applicants were directed to download full instructions and the application package from the announcement’s application materials. For help accessing the documents, the listed point of contact was Jessica Clark, Grants Management Specialist, at 503-808-6226 or j1clark@blm.gov.
