Opportunity Summary:
The Climate Change Performance Indicators grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00105) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. It is designed to support Nevada-specific wildlife and ecosystem management work tied directly to the Nevada Wildlife Action Plan, with a particular emphasis on understanding and documenting climate change impacts on species and habitats the state considers priorities for conservation and recovery.
At its core, the opportunity reflects a joint commitment between Nevada BLM and the Nevada Department of Wildlife to sustain and recover viable wildlife populations and the ecosystems those populations depend on. It sits within a broader Department of the Interior initiative to address climate change and its effects on federal trust resources. As part of that larger federal push, BLM is providing partial funding to help states collaborate with the Heinz Center to identify ecosystems and species that are vulnerable to climate change, and to develop practical methods and models that can document climate-driven changes over time. States are also expected to revise their Wildlife Action Plans to explicitly incorporate climate change considerations, meaning this work is not intended to stand alone; it is meant to feed into formal state wildlife planning and ongoing management decisions.
Nevada had already completed an initial phase of work that identified potential species indicators of climate change. This grant represents the continuation of that effort, shifting from simply naming candidate indicators to evaluating how well those indicators actually perform. In other words, the project focus is on examining whether the selected indicator species (and potentially associated ecosystem measures) are effective for detecting, tracking, and communicating climate-related changes in the field. The intent is to improve confidence that the indicators being used are meaningful, measurable, and useful for guiding management actions under the Nevada Wildlife Action Plan framework.
The total funding amount is fixed at $47,000, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $47,000, indicating that BLM expected to make a single award for the full amount (Expected Awards: 1). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The eligible applicant pool is limited to state governments, which aligns with the purpose of supporting state-level Wildlife Action Plan revisions and implementation. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the instrument type is a cooperative agreement, implying that BLM anticipated some level of substantial involvement or coordination during the project rather than a hands-off grant relationship.
Key dates for the opportunity show it was posted on May 27, 2010, with an application closing date of June 14, 2010, and it was later archived on August 25, 2010. Additional details were provided through Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact was Tanya E. Arnberger at BLM (775-753-0379, tarnberg@blm.gov) for assistance accessing the full announcement and related materials.
