Opportunity Summary:

The Joint Infrastructures w/Shasta County DPW opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CA NOI08 2006) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement issued through the Redding BLM Field Office to support joint maintenance and construction work at recreation sites across Shasta County, California. The basic idea behind the grant was to formalize a cooperative partnership between BLM and the Shasta County Department of Public Works (DPW) so that work affecting both BLM-managed recreation assets and nearby county transportation infrastructure could be completed more efficiently, at lower cost, and on a faster timeline than if each entity worked separately.

The project focus centered on BLM recreation infrastructure that the public uses regularly, including trailhead parking lots, motorized and non-motorized trails, access roads, water access points, and designated shooting areas. Many of these sites are either reached by county roads or located near county rights-of-way and easements, which makes coordination with the county especially practical. Because Shasta County DPW already knows the local road network and access constraints, has relevant equipment and crews, and routinely performs similar work, the partnership was positioned as a way to streamline mobilization, reduce duplicative efforts, and improve overall project delivery.

Activities anticipated under the agreement included road and trail maintenance and improvements such as resurfacing cracked or worn road surfaces, as well as bridge, culvert installation, and culvert maintenance. A specific example mentioned was replacing culverts within Special Recreation Management Areas (SRMAs), which are high-use recreation zones where drainage and safe access are critical to keeping routes open and reducing erosion or washouts. The scope also included trailhead and parking lot construction or upgrades, including paving improvements in certain parking areas to enhance durability, safety, and visitor experience, while reducing long-term maintenance needs.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, the instrument type was a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that BLM expected substantial involvement in planning, coordination, or oversight during project execution rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The opportunity listed one expected award, with an estimated total funding amount of $500,000 and an award ceiling of $500,000 (with an award floor of $1,000). Cost sharing or matching was required, meaning the recipient would need to contribute eligible non-federal resources (such as cash, in-kind labor, equipment use, or other allowable contributions) as part of the project budget.

Eligibility was limited to county governments, aligning with the stated intent to partner specifically with Shasta County DPW. The program was categorized under Natural Resources, with the CFDA number 15.225 (Recreation Resource Management), reflecting its purpose of supporting recreation-related infrastructure and management outcomes on public lands.

Key dates show this was a time-limited, archived opportunity. It was posted and created on August 27, 2008, with an original and current closing date of September 15, 2008, and an archive date of September 20, 2008. For administrative questions or access issues related to the full announcement at the time, the listed contact was Leona Parker, Grants and Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 530-252-5338.
