Opportunity Summary:
The Montana Westslope Cutthroat Trout Restoration grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00048) is a discretionary funding program offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on natural resources work in southwest Montana. The core purpose of the opportunity is to enhance genetically pure westslope cutthroat trout populations and improve or protect the habitat conditions that allow these native fish to persist and recover. In practice, this kind of restoration effort typically centers on conserving intact, genetically pure populations, reducing threats that degrade habitat quality, and supporting on-the-ground actions that improve stream and watershed conditions in priority areas.
Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing a grant and receiving final reports. The announcement anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $30,000. Individual award amounts are expected to range from a floor of $2,500 up to a ceiling of $15,000. The opportunity is specifically limited to eligible applicants that are state governments, indicating the program is structured for state-level fish and wildlife agencies or comparable state entities to propose and carry out restoration actions in coordination with the BLM.
This opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can make participation more feasible for eligible state applicants because the proposal does not need to document non-federal match contributions as a condition of award. The program is listed under CFDA number 15.238, and it was posted and created on July 30, 2010. The original and current closing date for applications was August 24, 2010, indicating a relatively short submission window typical of targeted, project-specific restoration funding opportunities.
For applicants or interested parties seeking the full announcement details, the listing points to Grants.gov (www.grants.gov) as the source for the complete electronic posting and application materials. The provided contact for assistance is Lori Anderson at the Bureau of Land Management, reachable by phone at 406-896-5196 or by email at landerso@blm.gov, particularly for help accessing the announcement electronically or resolving application access issues.
