Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "BLM WY WLCI Partner Support for the Diamond H Conservation Easement" is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Wyoming State Office notice of intent to make a cooperative agreement award to the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. The purpose is to develop a conservation easement on private lands near LaBarge Creek in southwest Wyoming. At its core, the easement is meant to keep the property primarily agricultural, prevent it from being broken up by new residential or cabin-site development, and protect the area s natural scenic qualities, open space character, and topographic features. The project is also framed as a way to conserve wildlife resources on the property while supporting broader landscape level conservation where private lands connect with or influence nearby BLM administered lands.
A major emphasis of the proposal is habitat conservation, especially for sagebrush ecosystems and the species that depend on them. The funding is intended to maintain or enhance sagebrush communities, which in turn supports greater sage grouse habitat and population objectives. The work also targets pronghorn by maintaining or improving migration corridors and enhancing habitat conditions used by pronghorn and other wildlife species. In addition, the easement is designed to align with Wyoming s Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy by helping conserve Species of Greatest Conservation Need (CWCS SSGN). Because the property is near and ecologically linked to adjacent BLM lands, protecting it through an easement is presented as a way to strengthen continuity of habitat and reduce fragmentation pressures that can undermine wildlife movement and long term population resilience.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant opportunity using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which generally indicates BLM expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than simply issuing funds with minimal interaction. The activity category is natural resources, and it is associated with CFDA number 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The estimated total funding amount listed is 200,000 dollars, and the opportunity includes a cost sharing or matching requirement. Eligibility is limited to state governments, and the posting makes clear it is specifically a notice of intent to award to the Wyoming Game and Fish Department, meaning it is not structured as an open competition among many applicant types.
The anticipated project length is one year, and the total period of performance for this award is capped at 12 months. BLM notes that continued funding could be considered if the recipient demonstrates progress that BLM finds satisfactory and if continuation is determined to be in the best interest of the government, or if funding is available. Key dates in the public listing show the opportunity was posted July 6, 2009, with a closing date of July 29, 2009, and it was later archived October 1, 2009. A point of contact is provided through the BLM Grants Management Officer for assistance accessing the full announcement text.
