Opportunity Summary:

The Gila Watershed Partnership UDI Project in Graham and Greenlee Counties is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior, focused on environmental work in Arizona within the Gila watershed area, specifically Graham and Greenlee Counties. The funding is offered as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than issuing a hands-off grant. Only one award was anticipated under this notice, indicating a competitive process aimed at selecting a single applicant to carry out the project described in the full announcement.

The opportunity was issued under Funding Opportunity Number BLM AZ NOI 09 1288 and is associated with CFDA 15.239 (Management Initiatives). The estimated total funding amount is $80,000, and the award ceiling is also $80,000, suggesting the selected project would likely be funded up to that amount. The award floor is listed as $0, which is often used as an administrative placeholder and does not necessarily mean tiny awards are expected; it simply indicates there is no stated minimum. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility, although voluntary leverage or in-kind support may still be viewed favorably depending on the criteria in the full announcement.

Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. That means eligible applicants would typically include community-based nonprofits, conservation organizations, watershed groups, and similar charitable entities that can demonstrate formal nonprofit status and the capacity to manage federal assistance awards. Because it is a cooperative agreement, an applicant would also need to be prepared to coordinate closely with the federal agency on planning, implementation, reporting, and potentially technical decisions, consistent with the terms laid out in the announcement.

The notice was originally posted on July 8, 2009, with an original closing date of July 22, 2009. The submission deadline was later extended, and the current closing date is August 5, 2009, which is identified as the end date for applicant submission. The archive date is August 21, 2009, meaning the opportunity was later closed out and archived in the grants system after the competition period. Applicants were directed to Grants.gov for the full announcement and application materials, which likely contained the project scope, required deliverables, evaluation criteria, and submission instructions beyond the brief summary provided in the listing.

For questions or for help accessing the full announcement electronically, the contact listed is Paul Stout, Grants Management Officer, at (602) 417-9268. This role typically supports applicants and awardees on administrative and compliance questions, such as application package requirements, allowable costs, reporting expectations, and federal assistance terms and conditions.
