Opportunity Summary:

The Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00084) was a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on supporting interpretation efforts tied to cultural, historic, and natural resources at the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area. In practical terms, the funding was intended to help a qualified partner develop or deliver public-facing interpretive services and materials that explain and preserve the story of the site, including its historical significance, cultural context, and surrounding natural environment. This type of work commonly includes things like educational programming, visitor interpretation, exhibits, signage, outreach materials, guided experiences, and related resource-interpretation activities that improve public understanding and appreciation of the area.

The award was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the project would be carried out with substantial involvement from the federal agency rather than as a hands-off pass-through grant. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the opportunity was associated with CFDA 15.225, Recreation Resource Management, which typically supports projects that enhance recreation-related resource stewardship and visitor services on public lands. Only one award was expected under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $185,822. The award ceiling was also listed as $185,822, indicating the maximum expected federal amount for the single award, while the award floor was $0, reflecting that smaller awards were not ruled out in the abstract even though the structure suggested one main award up to the ceiling.

Eligibility was limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. No cost sharing or matching requirement was stated, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award, although voluntary leveraged support is sometimes viewed favorably depending on the full application instructions. The opportunity was posted on May 3, 2011, and closed on May 20, 2011, with the archive date listed as July 3, 2011. Applicants were directed to use the official application package and instructions provided in the full announcement (available through the "APPLICATION" tab in the original posting). For access issues or administrative questions, the listed point of contact was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable at (208) 373-3817 or christineshaver@blm.gov.
