Opportunity Summary:
The BLM Oregon/Washington Hells Canyon Scenic Byway Outreach Project is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on recreation resource management and public outreach. The central purpose of the project is to develop and provide clear tourism and travel information, along with interpretive information about cultural and natural resources, so that members of the public can more easily access, understand, and responsibly enjoy recreation opportunities connected to public lands. A key emphasis is helping visitors plan trips efficiently, especially those intending to visit the BLM National Historic Oregon Trail Interpretive Center, by improving the way travel planning and visitor information are communicated.
This opportunity was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM anticipated active involvement with the recipient in carrying out the work rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The program intent highlights sustainable tourism: encouraging appropriate recreational use, promoting conservation of public resources, and supporting local economic benefits for communities near public lands. In practical terms, the project is oriented toward outreach products and visitor-facing information that makes recreational travel easier to plan while also reinforcing stewardship messages and resource appreciation.
The funding opportunity number is L10AS00261, and it was posted on August 10, 2010, with an application closing date of August 31, 2010 (the same as the original closing date). The opportunity was archived on August 10, 2011. The BLM expected to make one award. Total estimated funding for the announcement was $20,000, although the listed award ceiling was $3,800 and the award floor was $1, which suggests either a narrowly scoped award size or that the announcement anticipated a small cooperative agreement component within a broader funding context. No cost sharing or matching was required, which reduces the financial barrier for applicants.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications in the full announcement on Grants.gov. The CFDA program number associated with the opportunity is 15.225, Recreation Resource Management. Applicants seeking the full official details were directed to Grants.gov, and the point of contact for access issues or questions was Teresa Spickerman, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 503-808-6243 or teresaespickerman@blm.gov. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a small, targeted outreach and visitor-information effort tied to the Hells Canyon Scenic Byway and the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center, designed to improve trip planning, promote responsible recreation, and strengthen the connection between tourism and conservation on BLM-managed lands.
