Opportunity Summary:
The Forest Carnivore and Livestock Program in Montana (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00059) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding opportunity aimed at addressing two related wildlife management needs in Montana across different seasons. During the summer months, the program focused on reducing conflicts involving livestock and large carnivores, specifically gray wolves and grizzly bears. During the winter months, the opportunity also supported forest carnivore monitoring efforts for species such as Canada lynx, wolverine, and fisher. In practical terms, the grant was intended to support on-the-ground actions and monitoring work that help land managers and local stakeholders better understand carnivore presence and behavior, while also preventing or reducing livestock depredation and other conflict situations.
This opportunity was offered as either a cooperative agreement or a grant under the Natural Resources funding activity category, and it was associated with CFDA number 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The BLM anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $50,000 listed in the announcement. The award size for the project itself was set very specifically, with both the ceiling and floor listed at $10,000, indicating the expected award amount was $10,000 rather than a range of possible amounts. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, which generally means the competition was open to a wide variety of applicants (such as government entities, tribes, nonprofits, institutions of higher education, or other organizations), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on March 26, 2015, with an original and current closing date of May 26, 2015, and it was later archived on May 30, 2015. Applicants were directed to download the full announcement, instructions, and application package through the application tab referenced in the notice.
For support with accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed contact was Lori Anderson, Grants Management Officer (GMO) at the BLM, reachable by phone at 406-896-5196 or by email at landerso@blm.gov.
