Opportunity Summary:

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) grant opportunity titled "Development and Coordination of Wild Turkey and Upland Bird Habitat" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00237) is a discretionary grant focused on natural resource conservation work that supports wild turkey and other upland game bird habitat. The central purpose is coordination-driven: the recipient is expected to collaborate on the design and implementation of projects and programs that strengthen conservation and stewardship outcomes on BLM-managed lands and other public lands (state and federal), while also considering opportunities on adjacent private lands where habitat continuity, access, or shared landscape goals make joint efforts practical.

The work emphasized by the announcement is largely about identifying and shaping on-the-ground opportunities rather than simply carrying out a pre-set construction or restoration project. The recipient is expected to identify potential habitat projects, help design them, and develop partnerships to make them feasible. This includes building relationships and coordination frameworks with public agencies, conservation organizations, landowners, and other stakeholders who can contribute to habitat improvements or to expanding and organizing public access where appropriate. In other words, the grant supports the planning, partnership development, and project coordination steps that are often required before habitat improvements or access initiatives can be implemented efficiently across a mixed-ownership landscape.

A key deliverable mentioned in the posting is a summary for BLM that outlines actions taken and potential projects identified. The announcement notes that the effort is intended to be beneficial to BLM, but it is framed as not strictly mandatory for BLM in the sense that the recipient may be coordinating across multiple jurisdictions and landownerships. Even so, BLM expects to receive a clear summary of coordination activities, partnership progress, and a pipeline of potential habitat or access projects that could be advanced through future work.

From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity was posted on August 2, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 31, 2010, and it was later archived on October 31, 2010. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is Natural Resources under CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The opportunity anticipated a single award. The listing shows an estimated total funding amount of $100,000, while the award floor and ceiling are both stated as $16,000, which suggests the award size for this specific action was fixed at $16,000 even though broader program funding totals may have been larger or represented across related efforts.

Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of applicant, subject to any clarifications that would have appeared in the full announcement. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for participation and can make the grant more accessible to smaller organizations, local partners, or groups that may not have non-federal match readily available.

For applicants or interested parties needing assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Shawna R. Rogers at BLM, reachable by phone at 406-896-5210 or by email at shawnarogers@blm.gov, with the full posting available through Grants.gov.
