Opportunity Summary:
Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00213, titled "FA BLM AZ - Southern AZ Ranchland," was a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The program was set up as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expected to have substantial involvement in the work alongside the recipient rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The activity falls under the environment category and is associated with CFDA 15.225, Recreation Resource Management.
The purpose of the opportunity was straightforward and place-specific: to restore and repair damage to natural resources and property caused by illegal traffic moving through Southern Arizona. In practical terms, this kind of project typically focuses on rehabilitating impacted landscapes and ranchlands, repairing or replacing damaged infrastructure, addressing erosion or habitat disruption, and improving conditions on public lands and adjacent resources that have been affected by unauthorized cross-border or off-route travel. The emphasis is on tangible restoration actions that directly respond to the impacts described in the announcement.
The funding available was relatively small and targeted. The estimated total funding was $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor listed as $1, and the BLM anticipated making one award. There was no formal cost-sharing or matching requirement, but the announcement noted that cost sharing was encouraged. If an applicant planned to include third-party contributions, the BLM required documentation such as a letter committing funds or expressing interest in supporting the project.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning any type of applicant could apply (for example, nonprofits, local governments, tribes, universities, or other entities), subject to any clarifications that would have appeared in the full announcement text on Grants.gov. The opportunity was posted on August 2, 2012, and it had a short application window, with an original and final closing date of August 18, 2012. The notice was archived on September 18, 2012, indicating it is no longer open for applications.
For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement online, the listed point of contact was Paul Stout, Grants Management Officer at the Bureau of Land Management, reachable at 602-417-9268 or pstout@blm.gov. The public listing referenced Grants.gov as the source for the full announcement details and application instructions.
