Opportunity Summary:
The BLM WY Medicine Bow Conservation District Projects grant (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00124) is a discretionary Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding opportunity designed to support coordinated, landscape-scale natural resource management work within the boundaries of the Medicine Bow Conservation District in Wyoming. The purpose of the grant is to formalize and facilitate coordination between participating entities so that on-the-ground conservation and management practices can be implemented more effectively across a broader geographic area, rather than as isolated, site-by-site efforts. The overall aim is to produce measurable improvements in rangeland conditions while also strengthening stream function and improving habitat conditions for fisheries.
This opportunity falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is tied to CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The project emphasis, as stated in the announcement description, is on actions that improve rangeland health and enhance stream and aquatic habitat function. In practical terms, that generally aligns with work such as coordinated rangeland management practices, riparian and watershed improvements, and habitat-focused restoration actions that support healthier waterways and aquatic species. The grant is structured as a single expected award, signaling that BLM anticipated selecting one recipient to carry out the coordinated set of activities described in the full announcement.
Funding for the opportunity is estimated at a total of $300,000, with an award ceiling of $300,000 and an award floor of $0. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which means an applicant would not be required by the program to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award, although applicants sometimes still contribute partner resources or in-kind support as part of project implementation. The funding instrument type is a grant.
Eligibility is limited to special district governments, which fits the stated focus on the Medicine Bow Conservation District and similar local governmental entities with conservation and land stewardship responsibilities. The original posted date for the opportunity was June 15, 2011 (created June 14, 2011), with an application deadline of June 29, 2011. The opportunity was later archived on October 1, 2011, indicating it is no longer open but is documented for historical reference.
Applicants were directed to retrieve full instructions and the application package through the "APPLICATION" tab referenced in the announcement. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Robert J. Tichac at BLM, reachable by phone at 307-775-6313 or by email at roberttichac@blm.gov.
