Opportunity Summary:
The McInnis Canyons NCA/City of Fruita Snooks Trailhead Partnership (Funding Opportunity Number BLM CO NOI 09 1595) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management discretionary grant opportunity focused on recreation and natural resource management, specifically trail construction and ongoing trail maintenance. The project is tied to the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area and is framed as a partnership effort with the City of Fruita, suggesting work intended to support public access, improve trail infrastructure, and keep recreation routes safe and sustainable for continued use.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. In practice, this often includes coordination on project planning, compliance considerations, on-the-ground implementation details, and reporting. The opportunity anticipates a single award, indicating the agency planned to select one recipient or lead partner to carry out the work associated with the Snooks Trailhead area.
The total funding amount available is $20,000, and the award structure is fixed: the estimated total funding, award ceiling, and award floor are all listed as $20,000. That setup generally implies the agency expected to fund one project at one set amount rather than a range of awards. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility, though voluntary contributions or in-kind support can sometimes still strengthen a proposal depending on how the project is evaluated.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition was open to any type of entity unless further limits were described in the full announcement. The program is associated with CFDA 15.225, Recreation Resource Management, which aligns with the stated purpose of building and maintaining recreation trails. Applications were to be submitted through Grants.gov, which is the standard federal portal for grant applications.
Key dates show the opportunity was initially posted on September 14, 2009, with an original closing date of September 18, 2009, later extended to a current closing date of November 30, 2009. The record lists an archive date of December 30, 2009, meaning the announcement was eventually moved out of active status after the application window closed.
