Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Modeling Current and Future Distributions of Targeted Species" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00096) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) cooperative agreement intended to support natural resource planning and on-the-ground management decisions in the greater Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument ecosystem. While it is framed as an element of the trails plans research program, the work is explicitly described as broader in scope because it is meant to inform management choices tied to sensitive wildlife concerns, especially those involving the endangered Peninsular Bighorn Sheep in the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains. In practical terms, the project focus is on producing models that describe where certain species are currently found and where they are likely to occur in the future, which can help agencies evaluate how management actions, recreation planning, habitat protection, and potential environmental change might affect wildlife distributions over time.
This opportunity was posted on May 21, 2010, with an application closing date of June 1, 2010. The program anticipated making a single award, and the funding amount was fixed: an estimated total of $17,000, with an award ceiling of $17,000 and an award floor of $17,000. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that BLM expected to have substantial involvement during the project (for example, coordination on methods, data standards, deliverables, or alignment with land management needs), rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The funding activity category is listed as Education, and the CFDA number provided is 15.225, Recreation Resource Management, which is consistent with work that supports public land planning, recreation impacts, and related ecological resource decisions.
Eligibility is shown as unrestricted in general terms, meaning it was open to various entity types unless otherwise clarified. However, the listing also includes a key qualifier: an explicit notice of intent to award to the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG). That language usually signals that, even though the posting may appear broadly available, the agency had already identified a specific partner organization for this particular award action, often due to unique local capacity, an existing partnership framework, or a targeted need that aligns with that organization’s role in regional planning and coordination.
The expected outcome of the project is a set of models describing both current and potential future distributions of targeted species within the National Monument ecosystem. Because the description highlights the Peninsular Bighorn Sheep as a central management concern, the modeling work is implied to support decisions that could affect the species’ habitat, movement areas, or exposure to human activity, including recreation and trail planning. More broadly, distribution modeling in this context is commonly used to identify priority habitats, anticipate shifts related to environmental conditions, and guide land managers in balancing conservation objectives with public access and recreation infrastructure. The announcement directs applicants or interested parties to Grants.gov for full details and provides a point of contact for access issues: Andralee Holden Hughes, Grants Management Officer, at 951-697-5254 and jholden@blm.gov (also listed as judyholden_hughes@ca.blm.gov).
