Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) River Programs opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14PS01066) is a discretionary grant announcement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, specifically focused on the management of National Rivers and related recreation resource management (CFDA 15.225). It was posted on August 21, 2014, with an application closing date of September 5, 2014, and it was later archived on October 5, 2014. The funding instrument is a grant, and the published maximum award amount (ceiling) is $100,000, with no stated minimum award amount (floor listed as $0). The opportunity indicates that only one award was expected.
Although the listing notes that eligible applicants are "unrestricted" (meaning it appears open to any type of entity), the eligibility section includes a key clarification that changes how the notice should be interpreted in practice. The announcement explicitly states that it serves as a Notice of Intent (NOI) to award to the River Management Society (RMS). In other words, while the general eligibility field looks broad, the NOI language signals that BLM intended to make a direct award to a specific organization rather than conduct a fully open competition. This kind of notice is commonly used when an agency has determined that a particular recipient is uniquely positioned to carry out the work, or when the agency is continuing or formalizing an ongoing partnership aligned with program needs.
The opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which means the recipient would not be expected to contribute a specified percentage of non-federal funds to receive the award. That can simplify budgeting and reduce barriers for the recipient, since the project can be supported entirely with federal funds up to the stated ceiling, subject to the final negotiated budget and BLM award terms.
For assistance obtaining or accessing the full announcement materials, the listed point of contact is Chelsea Huff at the Bureau of Land Management, reachable by phone at (303) 236-1166.
