Opportunity Summary:

The MT Arctic Grayling Restoration grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00027) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is focused on natural resources work, specifically projects intended to enhance Montana arctic grayling populations in southwest Montana. The grant is tied to CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management, which generally supports on-the-ground conservation, habitat improvement, and related resource management activities that benefit fish and wildlife species and their ecosystems.

This opportunity anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $65,000. Individual project awards were expected to fall within a range defined by an award floor of $3,000 and an award ceiling of $11,000. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the program did not require cost sharing or matching funds, meaning applicants were not obligated to provide non-federal funds or in-kind contributions as a condition of receiving an award.

Eligibility was limited to state governments, so the intended applicants were Montana state agencies or other qualifying state-level entities positioned to carry out conservation and restoration work. While the short description does not list specific eligible project types, a restoration and enhancement goal like this typically covers activities such as improving habitat conditions, addressing barriers to movement, restoring stream function, supporting monitoring and assessment, and implementing management actions that reduce stressors on the species. Any proposed work would be expected to directly support the objective of improving the status or resilience of arctic grayling populations in the targeted region of southwest Montana.

In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted on February 22, 2012, with an original closing date of March 22, 2012, later extended to an updated closing date of April 6, 2012.
