Opportunity Summary:
The BLM WY Habitat Improvement and Implementation in North Central WY grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L16AS00266) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is listed under CFDA 15.231. The opportunity was created on August 3, 2016, with an original application deadline of September 4, 2016.
The core purpose of the award is to support habitat protection and enhancement projects across north central Wyoming. The emphasis is on practical, on-the-ground work that helps restore, protect, and promote suitable habitat for game and other wildlife in the region. A key feature of the program is collaboration: projects are expected to be carried out through the sharing of resources, information, and expertise, reflecting a coordinated approach to habitat improvement rather than isolated efforts.
This funding is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that BLM expects to be substantially involved in the project beyond simply providing funds. In practice, that usually means closer coordination with the agency on planning, implementation, technical decisions, or monitoring, consistent with BLM land-management responsibilities and habitat objectives in the area.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, meaning the intended applicant pool is state-level agencies or entities that can carry out wildlife and habitat work in partnership with federal land managers. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with a maximum funding amount (award ceiling) of $50,000. With one expected award at this level, the grant appears designed to fund a targeted project or a defined set of related habitat actions rather than a large multi-year program.
In short, this opportunity offered up to $50,000 for one state government-led cooperative project focused on improving wildlife habitat in north central Wyoming, with BLM involvement and an emphasis on coordinated implementation that leverages shared expertise and resources to achieve measurable habitat benefits.
