Opportunity Summary:
The Ely District, Nevada Emergency Stabilization and Rehabilitation (ESR) Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L13AS00063) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) cooperative agreement aimed at supporting post-wildfire recovery work and hazardous fuels reduction across the Great Basin and Mojave ecosystems. The core purpose is to ensure that emergency stabilization, rehabilitation, and vegetation treatment activities are properly planned, managed, implemented, documented, and monitored as wildfire-related needs arise on BLM-managed lands in and around the Ely District. The opportunity specifically notes that this effort continues an existing ESR program relationship with the Eastern Nevada Landscape Coalition (ENLC), which helps the BLM carry out on-the-ground work and the behind-the-scenes program functions needed to deliver and track these projects effectively.
The work described centers on two closely related areas: (1) Emergency Stabilization and Rehabilitation following wildfire, and (2) hazardous fuels activities intended to reduce future wildfire risk and severity. ESR projects typically begin after a wildland fire is contained and are designed to address urgent threats and longer-term resource impacts created by the fire. Common ESR goals in these kinds of programs include stabilizing soils to reduce erosion, protecting watersheds and water quality, preventing the spread of invasive species, reestablishing native vegetation, and repairing or restoring damaged habitat and other natural resource values. The announcement emphasizes that ESR funding is generally available for a defined window of about three years after the fire containment date, which reflects the typical federal approach of prioritizing rapid assessment and action while post-fire conditions are most vulnerable.
This opportunity was issued as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, with an estimated total funding amount of $5,000,000. The award ceiling is listed as $5,000,000 and the award floor as $50,000, with BLM expecting to make one award. Cost sharing or matching is not required, which means applicants would not be obligated to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.232, Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program, tying the effort to the broader federal program area that supports activities related to wildland fire impacts, recovery, and related management strategies.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any clarifications that may appear in the full announcement. Even though eligibility is broadly open, the narrative makes clear that the project is positioned as a continuation of a partnership arrangement with ENLC, indicating the BLM was seeking a partner able to immediately support ongoing and emerging ESR and hazardous fuels work, including the required planning, field implementation coordination, and compliance-oriented documentation and monitoring.
Key administrative details show the opportunity was posted on April 9, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 16, 2013, and an archive date of May 16, 2013. The short application window suggests this was intended to maintain continuity of operations for time-sensitive post-fire and fuels activities. For applicants needing access assistance, the BLM listed a point of contact: Susan Kaller, Grants and Agreements Specialist, at 775-861-6559 and skaller@blm.gov.
