Opportunity Summary:

The Eagle Nest Surveys grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00311) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement focused on natural resources work tied to raptor and habitat conservation in Nevada. The core purpose of the project was to improve on-the-ground knowledge of where eagles are likely to nest and where nests already exist, so BLM and its partners could make better-informed land management and conservation decisions. The work described centers on three practical outcomes: delineating potential eagle nesting habitat, locating eagle nests in the field (including both active and inactive nests), and collecting precise GPS coordinates for those nest sites.

A major deliverable expected from this effort was a georeferenced database that would be provided to BLM and cooperating partners. In plain terms, the project was intended to produce a mapped, spatially accurate dataset that could be integrated into BLM planning and resource management systems. By pairing habitat delineation with confirmed nest locations, the database would help identify sensitive areas, support environmental review and permitting decisions, guide seasonal restrictions or mitigation where needed, and improve long-term monitoring and conservation planning for eagle populations.

From an administrative and funding standpoint, the opportunity was offered as a cooperative agreement, indicating that BLM anticipated substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination on study areas, data standards, and deliverables). The program fell under CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The announcement anticipated a single award, with total estimated funding of $150,000. The award ceiling and floor were both set at $150,000, which generally signals that the agency expected one fixed-size project rather than a range of possible project budgets. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, reducing barriers for applicants who might not have access to non-federal match.

Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition was broadly open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that might have been provided in the full text of the announcement on Grants.gov. Key timeline details include a posted date and creation date of August 24, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 8, 2010. The opportunity was later archived on October 8, 2010, indicating it is no longer open for applications.

For access to the full announcement and any required forms or detailed instructions, applicants were directed to Grants.gov via the provided link. The point of contact listed for assistance, particularly if there were problems accessing the announcement electronically, was Susan Kaller, Grants and Agreements Specialist at BLM, reachable at 775-861-6559 or by email at susankaller@blm.gov.
