Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary funding opportunity titled "BLM OR WA Warner Valley Fish Investigations, Lakeview District, Oregon" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00078) to support field and analytical work focused on the Warner sucker, a threatened fish species found only in the Warner Basin of Lake County, Oregon. The core purpose of the project was to generate practical, management-ready information by investigating the species population status and trends, clarifying key life history patterns, identifying factors that may be limiting recovery, and evaluating the quality of habitat the species depends on. In short, the grant was aimed at improving the scientific foundation for conservation and resource management decisions affecting this endemic and imperiled fish.
The work described in the announcement emphasized several specific investigation themes. First, it called for population estimates, which typically involve structured sampling to approximate abundance, distribution, and potentially demographic structure across relevant waters within the basin. Second, it requested determination of life history patterns, meaning the project would look at how the fish grows, reproduces, moves, and uses habitat across seasons or life stages. Third, it asked applicants to evaluate potential limiting factors, which can include ecological and environmental constraints such as water availability, barriers to movement, water temperature, water quality, streamflow alteration, predation, competition, disease, or habitat fragmentation. Finally, it required assessment of habitat quality, focusing on whether the physical and biological conditions in occupied or potential habitats are suitable to support the species over time and what conditions might be improved through management actions.
From an administrative standpoint, the award was to be made as a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that BLM expected to have substantial involvement during the project (for example, coordinating on study design, access, reporting, or integration with ongoing district resource work). The opportunity fell under the Natural Resources funding activity category and was associated with CFDA number 15.231, "Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management." The announcement anticipated a single award with an estimated total funding amount of $14,000. The award ceiling was $14,000 and the award floor was listed as $1. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility was limited to state governments. The opportunity was posted on May 13, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 26, 2010, indicating a relatively short application window. The archive date was May 12, 2011. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed contact was Pamella Sterling, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 503-808-6221 or pamsterling@blm.gov, and the additional information link referenced Grants.gov.
