Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary, natural-resources grant opportunity titled "Desert bighorn sheep habitat and wildlife studies in Colorado" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00295). The purpose of the project was to carry out collaborative work between the selected recipient and the BLM to improve understanding of desert bighorn sheep populations in Colorado, with a clear focus on determining population dynamics and tracking population trends. In practical terms, the work was aimed at producing knowledge that would be directly useful for on-the-ground management decisions related to both the sheep and the habitats they rely on.
This opportunity was structured as a Cooperative Agreement, meaning the BLM anticipated active involvement and partnership with the recipient during the project rather than a hands-off grant arrangement. The activity category was Natural Resources, and the funding was tied to CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management), which generally supports conservation and resource management efforts involving wildlife, plant resources, and associated habitats.
The program anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $200,000. The maximum possible award (ceiling) was $200,000, and the minimum award amount (floor) was listed as $1,500. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, indicating it was open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may have appeared in the full announcement package. Key dates included a posted date of August 31, 2012, an original closing date of September 12, 2012, and a current (extended) closing date of September 20, 2012. The opportunity was later archived on October 30, 2012. Applicants were directed to the application materials and full instructions through the announcement's application tab, and the point of contact for access issues was Ruth A. Raisanen at rraisane@blm.gov.
