Opportunity Summary:
The Idaho Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy 2011 (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00032) is a Bureau of Land Management discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement to support on-the-ground and applied conservation work across Idaho. The program is framed around implementing Idaho's Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy through practical projects that strengthen wildlife and habitat management decisions. The core emphasis is on generating and using better information about species and habitats, carrying out restoration where it is needed, and improving public understanding through environmental education.
The opportunity targets a broad set of natural resource activities, including resource inventory, monitoring, and research, along with habitat and plant community restoration. It also supports administration and management of special status species databases, recognizing that good conservation outcomes often depend on maintaining reliable, up-to-date records on species distribution, condition, and trends. A major thematic focus is special status species inventory and monitoring, with particular attention to greater sage-grouse and other sagebrush-dependent species. Projects that address sagebrush systems are highlighted, especially where they fill species or habitat information gaps needed for land use planning, inform conservation actions, or contribute to habitat restoration planning, implementation, or ongoing maintenance of habitat projects.
Funding is available under CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The total estimated funding for the announcement is $500,000, with an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $1, and the agency anticipated making around 10 awards. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which means applicants are not required to provide non-federal match as a condition of eligibility for this specific opportunity. Because the instrument type is a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect substantial involvement by the federal agency during project performance, such as coordination on technical approaches, deliverables, reporting, or alignment with BLM management priorities.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, and specifically state agencies, based on the authority used for the program. The opportunity was posted and created on March 1, 2011. The listed current closing date is September 30, 2011, noted as the end of the federal fiscal year, and applications were to be reviewed as soon as they were submitted rather than waiting until the closing date. The announcement was archived on October 30, 2011, indicating it is no longer active.
Applicants needing application materials were directed to the instructions and forms referenced in the announcement (the "APPLICATION" section). For access issues or assistance, the point of contact was Melinda D. Ritacco, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 208-373-4018 or by email at melindaritacco@blm.gov.
