Opportunity Summary:
The Clear Creek Recreation Development and Environmental Education grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00056) is a discretionary funding program offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to support on-the-ground recreation improvements and environmental education efforts on BLM-managed lands in Shasta County, California. The core purpose is to strengthen recreational opportunities while also improving how transportation and access are managed in connection with recreation, such as managing visitor travel routes, trail access, and related use patterns that affect public safety, resource protection, and overall user experience. In addition to recreation and access improvements, the project work is expected to advance specific land management objectives already laid out in existing BLM planning decisions, particularly the Redding Resource Management Plan/Record of Decision and the Clear Creek Greenway Management Plan and Decision Record. A major component of the opportunity also focuses on environmental education and interpretation, with programming intended for schools as well as the general public.
The funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing funds. The total estimated funding available under this opportunity is $500,000, with an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $500. The announcement anticipates making up to three awards, suggesting that the funding could be divided among multiple projects or partners depending on the proposals received and the agency’s priorities. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which reduces barriers for eligible applicants and allows proposals to be built around the project need rather than around securing non-federal match.
Eligible applicants are limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing provided is 15.225 (Recreation Resource Management), indicating the program’s alignment with recreation planning, visitor use management, and resource stewardship outcomes typically associated with BLM recreation initiatives.
From a practical standpoint, the opportunity is aimed at projects that blend recreation development with responsible land stewardship. That can include improving or expanding recreational facilities and experiences, addressing visitor travel and transportation management issues tied to recreation use, and delivering environmental education and interpretive programming that helps students and the broader community understand local ecosystems, responsible recreation practices, and the public land management context. The emphasis on consistency with the Redding Resource Management Plan and the Clear Creek Greenway Management Plan signals that proposals should be designed to directly implement or support those existing decisions, rather than introducing unrelated or purely stand-alone recreation concepts.
Key administrative details include a posted date and creation date of April 28, 2010, and an application closing date of June 1, 2010 (original and current closing dates are the same). Additional details and the full announcement were available through Grants.gov. For applicants needing assistance accessing the announcement, the listed contact is Leona B. Parker, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 530-252-5338 or by email at lparker@blm.gov.
