Opportunity Summary:

The BLM Oregon/Washington West Eugene Wetlands Native Plant Material Conservation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00244) was a discretionary funding announcement from the Bureau of Land Management focused on conserving and improving native plant resources in the West Eugene Wetlands (WEW) area. The central purpose was to support on-the-ground resource conservation work tied specifically to native plant materials on BLM-managed lands as well as on partner-managed sites within the West Eugene Wetlands landscape. In practical terms, the opportunity was geared toward projects that maintain, restore, or enhance wetland and associated habitat conditions by using appropriate native plant materials, helping sustain or rebuild native plant communities and the ecological functions they support.

The award was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expected to be substantially involved in the work beyond simply providing funding. The activity category was Natural Resources, and the funding aligned with CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management), indicating the work fits within broader conservation and resource management objectives. The announcement anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $36,010. The award ceiling was also listed as $36,010, while the award floor was $1, signaling that project budgets could vary but could not exceed the stated maximum for this solicitation. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, lowering barriers for applicants who might not have additional financial resources to contribute.

Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was broadly open to many applicant types, subject to any clarifications that may have been included in the full announcement text on Grants.gov. The posting date was August 3, 2010, with the application window closing on August 17, 2010, indicating a relatively short timeframe for submission. For applicants who could not access the full announcement online, the grant management point of contact was Teresa Spickerman, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at 503-808-6243 or by email at teresaespickerman@blm.gov. The full announcement and any detailed requirements, deliverables, or application instructions were available through Grants.gov via the link provided in the notice.

Overall, this funding opportunity was a targeted, place-based conservation effort centered on the West Eugene Wetlands, aimed at protecting and improving habitat quality through the use, stewardship, and application of native plant materials. The examples provided in the notice emphasize maintaining and enhancing BLM WEW habitats, which typically includes activities like planting or propagating locally appropriate native species, improving the success of native vegetation establishment, and supporting ongoing habitat management practices that keep these wetland ecosystems functioning and resilient.
