Opportunity Summary:
The Leadville Area Forestry Thinning, Mistletoe Sanitation and MPB Salvage grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00302) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding program focused on improving forest health and reducing hazardous fuels on BLM-managed lands in and around the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) near Leadville. The core purpose was to support on-the-ground forestry work that lowers wildfire risk to nearby communities while also addressing specific forest health issues, including mistletoe infestation and impacts from Mountain Pine Beetle (MPB). In practical terms, the project scope centered on forestry thinning, sanitation treatments to remove or reduce mistletoe-affected trees, and salvage work associated with MPB-killed or damaged timber, all aimed at making stands healthier and less prone to severe wildfire behavior.
The award was offered as a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates the agency anticipated ongoing involvement or coordination during the project rather than a simple pass-through of funds. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the related CFDA listing was 15.233, Forests and Woodlands Resource Management. BLM expected to make a single award under this opportunity. Total estimated funding was $25,000, with an award ceiling of $25,000 and an award floor of $6,250. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, meaning applicants were not obligated to provide a cash or in-kind match as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of applicant, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on August 23, 2010, and it closed on September 6, 2010, with an archive date of September 15, 2010. Applicants were directed to Grants.gov for the full announcement and application instructions. For assistance accessing the announcement, the listed contact was Yvonne Pier at BLM (303-239-3908, yvonnepier@blm.gov).
