Opportunity Summary:
The Migratory Bird Monitoring in Montana grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00233) was a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), under the Natural Resources funding activity category (CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The project was set up to support field and analytical work focused on migratory bird monitoring efforts in Montana, with the intent of improving the collection, management, and interpretation of bird monitoring data in support of conservation and resource management decisions.
The core work described in the announcement centered on collaborating with field technicians to collect migratory bird data, ensuring that those observations were properly entered into an established database, and then conducting an analysis of the first three years of monitoring results. A key deliverable was the preparation of an "Early Response Final Report" to be written during the winter of 2010 to 2011, implying that the project aimed to provide an early synthesis of findings and initial conclusions from the first multi-year dataset. In practical terms, this would likely involve coordinating field workflows, maintaining data quality and completeness, performing summary and trend analyses appropriate for a three-year monitoring window, and translating the results into a formal written report suitable for agency use.
Funding for the award was modest and tightly defined: the estimated total funding was $8,000, with both the award ceiling and floor set at $8,000, indicating BLM anticipated making one award for a single fixed amount. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which reduced the financial burden on the recipient and suggests the award was intended to cover a specific, limited scope of work rather than a large, multi-year program.
Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, meaning the competition was aimed at state universities and similar public academic entities capable of supporting biological monitoring, data management, and report writing. The opportunity was posted and created on July 30, 2010, and it closed on August 24, 2010, with an archive date of September 1, 2010. Additional details were made available through Grants.gov.
For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Lori Anderson, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable at 406-896-5196 or by email at landerso@blm.gov.
