Opportunity Summary:
The BLM UT 2009 Challenge Cost Share Continuing Projects opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM UT NOI 09 0897) is a discretionary grant announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Utah. It is offered under the Challenge Cost Share (CCS) program and is specifically aimed at continuing or supporting existing projects already underway within BLM Utah, rather than launching entirely new efforts. Awards are made through cooperative agreements, which typically means BLM expects substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as coordinating on planning, implementation, or oversight.
The scope of work is broad but centered on natural resource stewardship and public land benefits across Utah. Funded activities may include research, monitoring, and inventory work that improves understanding of resources on BLM-managed lands. Examples listed in the announcement include studying wildlife, fish, and plant populations; assessing habitat conditions; documenting cultural or historical sites; and tracking recreation use or facility needs, including trails. The opportunity also supports on-the-ground habitat improvement projects, efforts to protect or document cultural and historic resources, and projects that enhance recreational experiences for the public. In addition, it can fund development and implementation of species conservation and recovery plans, environmental education initiatives, conservation planning and implementation, conservation work targeting native plant communities, and weed management, including eradication of noxious or otherwise problematic weeds in areas of special concern.
Funding for this cycle is estimated at $850,000 total, with an expected 60 awards. Individual awards range from a minimum (floor) of $500 up to a maximum (ceiling) of $100,000. The CFDA program number associated with this opportunity is 15.238 (Challenge Cost Share). The listing indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement for applicants under this announcement, even though CCS programs often involve partner contributions; applicants would still want to confirm any project-specific expectations described in the full announcement materials.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is generally open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any additional eligibility details or clarifications included in the full notice. Key dates show the opportunity was posted March 12, 2009, created May 15, 2009, with an original closing date of April 30, 2009, later extended to a current closing date of June 15, 2009.
