Opportunity Summary:
The FA BLM CO RGFO TIGER WETLANDS opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00240) is a discretionary federal grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on natural resources and environmental quality. The project purpose is to install a wetlands treatment complex designed to improve watershed-level water quality and aquatic habitat conditions that have been harmed by historic mining activity within the affected drainage. In practical terms, the funding supports building and implementing constructed or restored wetland features that can help treat mine-impacted water (such as by reducing metals and sediment, improving water chemistry, and creating better habitat conditions), with the broader goal of restoring ecosystem function in the watershed.
Funding is offered through a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the BLM expects to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $200,000. Individual awards were expected to fall between a floor of $50,000 and a ceiling of $200,000, depending on the proposed scope and budget. No cost share or matching funds were required, which lowers the barrier to participation for eligible organizations and allows applicants to propose a project budget that relies fully on federal funds if needed.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofits with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The listing is associated with CFDA 15.236, Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management, indicating the programmatic alignment with federal natural resource and environmental protection objectives. The opportunity was posted on August 29, 2011, with creation dated September 1, 2011. The original application closing date was September 9, 2011, later extended to September 16, 2011. The opportunity was archived on October 15, 2011, meaning it is no longer accepting applications and is maintained only for record and reference.
Applicants were directed to access the full announcement and application package through the posting (via the "Application" section referenced in the notice), which would typically include detailed technical expectations, required forms, evaluation criteria, reporting requirements, and any environmental compliance considerations. For assistance accessing the announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Yvonne Pier, Grants Management Officer, reachable at ypier@blm.gov.
