Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "CESU Identifying Riparian Habitats within Nevada utilizing Landsat Imagery" (Funding Opportunity Number L13AS00123) to support a project focused on mapping riparian habitats across Nevada using Landsat satellite imagery and evaluating how those habitats have changed over time. The core purpose is to identify riparian areas statewide and then analyze trends and changes that may be linked to climate influences and/or land use practices, using a time-series approach that leverages the long historical record available from Landsat data. The notice also states that "Mod 1" increases the funding amount for the first year, indicating an amendment to boost initial-year support.
This opportunity is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means BLM expects substantial involvement during the project (for example, coordination on methods, data needs, study design, review of interim products, or integration with agency management priorities). The activity area is categorized under Natural Resources, and it aligns with CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). BLM anticipated making one award under this announcement.
The funding details list an estimated total funding amount of $1,000,000 for the opportunity, with both the award ceiling and award floor stated as $165,000, suggesting the expected individual award amount for the announced action is $165,000. No cost sharing or matching is required, which lowers the barrier for eligible applicants because they are not obligated to provide non-federal funds or in-kind contributions as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligible applicants are limited to institutions of higher education, including both public/state-controlled universities and private universities. This indicates the project is intended for academic or research-capable partners with expertise in remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), landscape ecology, hydrology, or related fields needed to process Landsat imagery and interpret riparian habitat dynamics.
Key timeline information shows the opportunity was posted on July 1, 2013, with a creation date of July 10, 2013. The original and current closing date are both July 12, 2013, and the archive date is August 12, 2013, meaning the application window was very short and the opportunity is now archived. Applicants were directed to obtain full instructions and application materials through the announcement's application materials link.
