Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary cooperative agreement opportunity titled "Development and Collection of Native Plant Material - Idaho" under Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00271. The purpose of the project was to develop and implement practical horticultural methods that support habitat restoration work tied to rangeland management in Idaho. In plain terms, the grant was aimed at improving how native plant materials are developed and collected so they can be used more effectively in restoring rangeland habitats, which often involves rebuilding plant communities after disturbances such as wildfire, invasive species pressure, overuse, or other forms of degradation.
This opportunity fell under the Natural Resources funding activity category and was connected to CFDA 15.237, Rangeland Resource Management. BLM expected to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $8,500. The award ceiling was also $8,500, meaning the maximum potential funding for the single project was capped at that amount, while the award floor was listed as $0, which typically indicates there was no stated minimum request level. No cost sharing or matching was required, so an applicant would not have been obligated to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Only federally recognized Native American tribal governments were eligible to apply. The funding instrument was a cooperative agreement, which generally signals that BLM anticipated having substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing funds, such as coordinating technical direction, collaborating on methods and deliverables, or participating in oversight and planning as the work progressed.
The announcement was posted on September 12, 2011, and had a very short application window: the original and current closing date were both September 18, 2011. The opportunity was archived on November 12, 2011, indicating it is no longer active. Applicants were directed to download the full announcement instructions and application package through the application tab referenced in the listing. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 208-373-3817 or via email at cshaver@blm.gov.
Overall, the grant was a small, targeted funding opportunity intended to support hands-on development and use of horticulture practices that strengthen native plant supply and application for rangeland habitat restoration in Idaho, implemented through a collaborative cooperative agreement structure with an eligible tribal government partner.
