Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM Wilderness Program and WILD Foundation" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00118) is a discretionary, environment-focused cooperative agreement offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under CFDA 15.236, Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management. The core purpose of the project is to strengthen communication and collaboration between BLM and the WILD Foundation in ways that support the long-term conservation, management, and recovery of wilderness and other protected areas across North America. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at helping protect ecosystem integrity in wilderness and protected landscapes while also improving how agencies, partners, and stakeholders work together to achieve effective, efficient, and mutually beneficial conservation outcomes. A major theme running through the announcement is building broader, continent-scale public relevance for wilderness by supporting management, conservation, and sustainable use efforts that resonate beyond any single site or jurisdiction.
A central deliverable connected to this collaboration is public education and information-sharing through the International Journal of Wilderness. The funding supports dissemination of wilderness-related knowledge to a wide audience by publishing and distributing content that includes research findings, planning approaches, management techniques, and information on the use and stewardship of the worlds wilderness resources. The journal reaches individual members of the public, nongovernmental organizations, wilderness visitors, and multiple federal agencies, including but not limited to BLM. Distribution of the journal is handled by the WILD Foundation, making the foundation an important conduit for getting both scientific and practical management information into the hands of people and institutions involved in wilderness protection and stewardship.
This opportunity was structured as a notice of intent to make an award specifically to the WILD Foundation, meaning it was not a broadly competed grant open to a wide field of applicants in the typical sense. The listing indicates "Eligible Applicants: Others (see text...)" but the eligibility clarification states directly that the intent is to award to the WILD Foundation. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, so recipients would not be expected to provide a non-federal match as a condition of the award.
In terms of funding scale and timing, the opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $70,000. The award ceiling was also $70,000, while the award floor was $5,000, suggesting the agency reserved the flexibility to size the award within that range depending on final scope, budget, or negotiated work elements. The opportunity was posted on May 27, 2014, with creation dated June 9, 2014. The original closing date was June 10, 2014, later extended to a current closing date of June 23, 2014, and it was set to be archived on June 30, 2014.
For applicants or stakeholders seeking more information at the time, the announcement pointed people to Grants.gov and provided a BLM contact for access issues: Lisa Clayton, Grants Management Officer, at 202-912-7098 and ltclayton@blm.gov. Overall, the grant is best understood as a targeted cooperative agreement designed to formalize and support BLMs partnership with the WILD Foundation to advance wilderness stewardship outcomes and to expand the reach of wilderness knowledge through a recognized publication platform.
