Opportunity Summary:
The Boundary Fence Maintenance Repair grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R12SS40022) was a continuation funding notice issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Upper Colorado Region, under the Environment funding activity category. The stated purpose was straightforward: to continue fencing work and perform repairs to an existing property boundary fence. The work was to be carried out in accordance with an established Scope of Work referenced in a Notice of Intent (NOI) to award to the Western Colorado Conservation Corps, indicating this announcement was tied to an identified partner and an ongoing project rather than a broad, open competition.
This opportunity used a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement typically signals that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance, such as coordination, technical direction, or oversight beyond what is typical in a standard grant. The announcement anticipated a single award, with total estimated funding of $48,000. The award ceiling and floor were both listed as $48,000, meaning the agency expected to fund one project at one fixed amount rather than consider a range of budgets. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds to meet a match.
Eligibility was limited and targeted. Rather than being open to all organizations, applicants needed to be youth, veteran, or conservation corps organizations capable of involving youth ages 15 to 25. The geographic emphasis referenced the 17 Western United States, and it also noted participation in the Bureau of Reclamation Intern Program on Reclamation projects on a nationwide basis. The notice clarified that a qualified service or conservation corps could be established by a state or local government, an Indian tribe governing body, or a nonprofit organization, which aligns with common definitions used in federal youth corps and conservation workforce programs. The CFDA number listed was 15.546, identified as the Youth Conservation Program, reinforcing that the opportunity was designed to support conservation-related work while providing youth engagement, training, and employment experience.
The timeline shows this was a short window announcement. It was posted on April 20, 2012, with an original and current closing date of May 4, 2012, and it was archived the next day on May 5, 2012. For prospective applicants at the time, the listed point of contact was Carla Pickering, Grant Specialist, reachable by phone at 801-524-3716, with an email address referenced but not fully included in the provided text.
