Opportunity Summary:
Meadow Valley Wash Geomorphic Study Part 2 (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00069) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding opportunity offered as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The purpose of the award was to support a fluvial geomorphology study of Meadow Valley Wash, one of the larger stream systems in southern Nevada, which plays an important role in supporting riparian and aquatic habitat for native wildlife even though year-round (perennial) flow occurs only in certain reaches.
The grant focused on addressing real, recurring watershed problems tied to flooding and heavy sediment movement. Meadow Valley Wash has experienced repeated flood events and high sediment loads that have caused damage in and around the City of Caliente, affected transportation infrastructure, and harmed natural resources. The study was intended to generate practical, science-based guidance to help make the watershed more resilient to flooding, with the broader goal of reducing future damage to built infrastructure and protecting ecological values along the wash. In short, the funding was aimed at improving understanding of how the channel and floodplain behave, how sediment is transported and deposited, and what conditions or trends increase flood risk, so that subsequent management or restoration actions could be better targeted and more effective.
The project area covered roughly a 25-mile segment of Meadow Valley Wash, extending from Antelope Canyon Wash (north of Caliente) downstream to Kane Springs Wash (south of Elgin). The Nevada Department of Wildlife was identified as the entity that would carry out the geomorphology study, reflecting the program's emphasis on state-level management and implementation capacity.
Administratively, the opportunity was limited to eligible applicants from state governments, and it anticipated a single award. The total funding amount was fixed at $45,425, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $45,425, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted and created on April 17, 2012, with an original and final closing date of April 24, 2012, and it was later archived on May 17, 2012.

What was the purpose of this award?
The purpose of the award was to support a fluvial geomorphology study of Meadow Valley Wash in southern Nevada. The study was intended to produce practical, science-based guidance to help make the watershed more resilient to flooding, reduce future damage to built infrastructure, and protect ecological values along the wash.
Why was Meadow Valley Wash selected for a geomorphology study?
Meadow Valley Wash is one of the larger stream systems in southern Nevada and supports riparian and aquatic habitat for native wildlife, even though year-round (perennial) flow occurs only in certain reaches. The wash has also experienced repeated flood events and high sediment loads that have caused damage in and around the City of Caliente, affected transportation infrastructure, and harmed natural resources.
What watershed problems was the grant meant to address?
The grant focused on real, recurring watershed problems tied to flooding and heavy sediment movement. Specifically, it aimed to improve understanding of channel and floodplain behavior, sediment transport and deposition, and the conditions or trends that increase flood risk so that later management or restoration actions could be more targeted and effective.
What types of outcomes was the study expected to generate?
Based on the opportunity description, the study was intended to generate practical, science-based guidance related to how the watershed functions during floods, how sediment moves through the system, where sediment is deposited, and what factors contribute to flood risk, with the goal of informing future watershed resilience and protection of infrastructure and natural resources.
What is meant by "fluvial geomorphology" in the context of this opportunity?
In this opportunity, fluvial geomorphology refers to studying how the stream channel and floodplain behave, how flooding influences the system, and how sediment is transported and deposited, specifically to understand flood risk and support better-targeted management or restoration actions.
