Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Field Studies and Management of Rare Plant Database" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00335) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement focused on natural resources work in Utah, specifically the continued support of the Utah Natural Heritage Program (UNHP). The core purpose is to fund ongoing field studies of rare plant species across the state and to maintain and manage Utah's rare and native plant database, which is housed at UNHP. UNHP is identified as the official data steward for rare and native plant information in Utah, and it operates under the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources in Salt Lake City. The database is not just a repository; it is a working management tool that BLM relies on to guide conservation decisions and day-to-day management of rare plant species on lands it oversees.
This award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally signals an active partnership between the agency and the recipient rather than a hands-off grant. The only eligible applicants listed are state governments, aligning with UNHP's role as a state-based program and recognized steward of the data. The program is tied to CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management), and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to receive the award.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $400,000, with an expected number of awards of one. The award ceiling and floor are both $80,000, indicating a fixed award amount per cooperative agreement under this announcement. Key timeline details show it was posted and created on August 30, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 10, 2010, and an archive date of October 31, 2010, reflecting that it was a time-limited funding round.
