Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) opportunity titled "BLM OR/WA Warner Wetlands Restoration, Lakeview District, Oregon" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00258) is a discretionary cooperative agreement focused on natural resources work associated with the Warner Wetlands restoration effort in south-central Oregon. This announcement supports Phase II of a multi-phase restoration project and is centered on improving how water is moved and managed across the wetlands, with the broader intent of strengthening wetland function and related fish and wildlife habitat values through infrastructure repairs and redesign.
Phase II specifically targets the completion of a re-engineering and overhaul of a water distribution system that is described as being more than 20 years old. The work described includes reconstructing dikes and headgates, conducting maintenance on existing dikes and levees, and removing dikes where removal is deemed necessary. In practical terms, the project is about correcting and modernizing the control structures and earthen features that direct flows, retain water, and regulate wetland hydrology. By rebuilding headgates (which control water entering or leaving certain areas) and repairing or adjusting dikes and levees (which shape and hold water on the landscape), the project aims to restore more appropriate water movement and improve overall wetland management capacity. Where past structures are no longer compatible with restoration goals, dike removal is included as an option to reestablish more natural hydrologic conditions.
The opportunity was posted on August 16, 2010, with an application closing date of August 31, 2010, and it was archived on August 16, 2011. BLM anticipated making one award under this announcement. The estimated total funding available was $80,963, with an award floor of $1 and an award ceiling listed as $500,000. No cost sharing or matching funds were required. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Unrestricted," meaning the competition was open to a broad range of applicant types (such as local governments, nonprofits, tribes, educational institutions, or other entities), subject to any additional eligibility details that may have been provided in the full announcement on Grants.gov. The program is associated with CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management, aligning it with on-the-ground conservation and habitat management work.
Because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, it generally indicates that BLM expected to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as coordination on technical specifications, scheduling, permitting considerations, compliance requirements, or construction oversight as the restoration infrastructure work moved forward. For applicants or partners who needed help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Walter Ullrey, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 503-808-6230 or wullrey@blm.gov, with the primary posting and attachments accessible through Grants.gov.
