Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "BLM WY Wild Horse and Burro Resource Management" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00046) was a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), under the Natural Resources funding activity category. It was issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM anticipated having substantial involvement in the work being carried out rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal participation. The program aligns with the federal Wild Horse and Burro Resource Management mission (CFDA 15.229), which focuses on the management, care, and responsible handling of wild horses and burros on public lands.

The purpose of this specific agreement was to partner the BLM with the Wyoming Department of Corrections, specifically the Wyoming Honor Farm, to provide care and training for wild horses. In practical terms, the project centered on the holding, daily care, and conditioning or training of wild horses, with the expectation that trained animals would become more adoptable and easier to place into private homes or other long-term arrangements. The involvement of the Wyoming Honor Farm indicates a structured facility-based program where animals can be managed consistently while also supporting a workforce or vocational component tied to the corrections system, which is a common model for horse gentling and training programs.

Eligibility for this opportunity was limited to state governments, and the expected number of awards was one, reflecting that this was designed for a specific partner arrangement rather than an open competition among many different organization types. The announcement listed no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The total estimated funding associated with the opportunity was $2,000,000, and both the award ceiling and award floor were listed as $0, which typically indicates that the agency did not publish a formal per-award minimum or maximum in the summary fields and that actual award amounts would be defined in the agreement documents or negotiated scope.

Key dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on March 3, 2014, with an original and current closing date of March 31, 2014. The opportunity was archived on April 14, 2014, meaning it is no longer active and was part of a past funding cycle. For applicants or interested parties at the time, the full instructions and application package were accessed through the announcement's "APPLICATION" tab, and a point of contact was provided for technical or access issues: Robert J. Tichac at the BLM, reachable by phone at 307-775-6313 or by email at rtichac@blm.gov.
