Opportunity Summary:

The Native Plant Material Project (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00217) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to continue an existing cooperative effort with the Desert Botanical Garden focused on native plant materials. The project sits within the Natural Resources funding activity category and is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means the agency expects to be actively involved during the project period rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The core purpose, as stated in the announcement, is not to launch a brand-new initiative but to extend or further develop work that is already underway with Desert Botanical Garden related to developing, managing, or improving native plant materials.

The opportunity anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $300,000. The award ceiling is also listed as $300,000, indicating the full funding amount is expected to go to one recipient rather than being split among multiple grantees. The award floor is listed as $1, which is a technical minimum and does not change the practical expectation that this is a single, substantial continuation award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement (the notice specifies "Challenge Cost Share: No" and "CostSharingOrMatchingRequirement: No"), so applicants are not required to provide matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.

Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, excluding institutions of higher education. In other words, the target applicant pool is charitable nonprofit organizations that are not universities or colleges. The funding is associated with CFDA number 15.238, which corresponds to BLM assistance programs.

Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on July 22, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 9, 2010, and an archive date of August 22, 2010. This means the opportunity is historical and closed, but the details remain useful for understanding the scope, funding level, and agency approach for this type of work. For full details, the announcement directed applicants to Grants.gov via the provided additional information link.

For questions or help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Paul Stout, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 602-417-9268 and by email at paulstout@blm.gov.
