Opportunity Summary:
The BLM WY Pronghorn Research within Natural Gas and Wind Energy Development (CESU) opportunity is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Wyoming State Office discretionary funding announcement to support a cooperative research project focused on pronghorn in Wyoming. The purpose is to evaluate how manmade structures and energy development activities are affecting pronghorn that rely on important seasonal habitats, specifically crucial winter ranges as well as spring, summer, fall, and yearlong habitat areas that pronghorn have traditionally used. In practical terms, the work is aimed at improving understanding of how barriers like fences and landscape changes associated with oil and natural gas fields and wind energy development may influence pronghorn movement, habitat use, and overall access to key ranges across seasons.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the BLM expects to be actively involved in the project beyond simply providing funds. The announcement indicates the BLM intends to award this agreement to the University of Wyoming, and eligibility is limited to Great Plains Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) partners, with eligible applicants described as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. Only one award was expected under this opportunity.
The planned project timeline is up to three years, with a maximum total project period not to exceed 36 months. While the anticipated period is three years, the BLM notes that continued funding would depend on two main factors: whether the recipient demonstrates progress that the BLM considers satisfactory toward the program goals and whether the BLM determines that continuing the work is in the government’s best interest, or alternatively whether funding remains available. This structure signals that the work may be funded incrementally and reviewed over time rather than guaranteed in full upfront for the entire period.
Financially, the opportunity listed an estimated total funding amount of $120,000, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The activity category is Natural Resources, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management), which aligns with applied wildlife conservation and land management research intended to inform on-the-ground decisions.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted in August 2009, with an original and current closing date of August 24, 2009, and an archive date of October 1, 2009. The funding opportunity number is BLM WY NOI09 9029. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed contact was Ilze J. Karklins Powers, Grants Management Officer, reachable at ipowers@blm.gov.
