Opportunity Summary:

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering a small, single-award cooperative agreement opportunity titled "BLM OR/WA, Horning Seed Orchard Education and Support" (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00037). The project is centered on the BLM Walter Horning Seed Orchard in Oregon/Washington and is designed to create a partnership with one recipient to deliver mentoring, training, and hands-on experience related to forest improvement and broader natural resource management. In practical terms, the intent is educational and workforce-development focused: the selected partner would help provide structured learning and on-the-ground exposure to the kinds of activities involved in managing forest genetic resources and supporting forest health and restoration objectives.

This is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates a more collaborative relationship with the agency during the project compared to a standard grant. The funding falls under the Natural Resources activity category, tied to CFDA 15.233 (Forests and Woodlands Resource Management). BLM expects to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $3,200. The award range is listed with a floor of $1 and a ceiling of $3,200, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to contribute non-federal funds to meet a match.

Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it is open to any type of entity, subject to any clarifications that may appear in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted and created on March 10, 2015, with an application deadline of May 11, 2015, and an archive date of March 9, 2016. Applicants were directed to download the full set of instructions and the application package from the announcement's application materials. For technical difficulties accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Jessica Clark at BLM (503-808-6226, j1clark@blm.gov).
