Opportunity Summary:
The Ecoregional Database Development grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00208) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement focused on natural resources work that supports fish, wildlife, and plant conservation resource management (CFDA 15.231). The core purpose of the award was to fund the interpretation, integration, and organization of data and analytical outputs generated through initial ecoregional assessments for two broad regions: the Northern Great Plains and the Middle Rockies. In practical terms, the project centered on bringing together existing assessment information into a more usable, coherent database or integrated data framework, so that results from those early ecoregional assessment efforts could be better understood, compared, and applied in future conservation and land-management decisions.
BLM planned to make a single award through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the agency anticipated substantial involvement during the period of performance, such as coordination on technical approach, deliverables, data standards, or integration priorities. The announcement listed an estimated total funding amount of $275,000, but the specified award ceiling and floor were both $62,000, indicating the expected federal funding for the actual award was a fixed amount of $62,000. The opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching funds.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was broadly open to any applicant type, subject to any clarifying conditions that would have been included in the full announcement package. The opportunity was posted on July 31, 2012, with an application closing date of August 21, 2012, and it was later archived on October 1, 2012. Applicants were directed to retrieve full instructions and the application package via the announcement's applications tab (with an additional information link referenced in the posting). For access issues or administrative questions, the grants management point of contact was Lori Anderson, Grants Management Officer, at 406-896-5196 or landerso@blm.gov.
