Opportunity Summary:
The Nevada Migratory Bird Monitoring Project (Funding Opportunity Number NV NOI080021) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) continuation notice announcing the agency's intent to fund a specific set of bird monitoring activities through a cooperative agreement. It falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.231, Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management. The notice was posted on July 28, 2008, with an original and current closing date of August 11, 2008, and an archive date of August 21, 2008. The total anticipated award amount is fixed at $5,000, with the award floor and ceiling both set at $5,000, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement.
A key point in this announcement is that it is not a request for applications. Instead of inviting competitive proposals, BLM is providing public notice that it plans to make this award without full and open competition. In practice, that means the agency has already identified the intended work and the likely partner, and the notice mainly serves transparency and procedural requirements rather than opening a broad competition for new applicants.
The project itself focuses on cooperative migratory bird trend inventories carried out along established transects across representative habitat types within the BLM Elko Field Office area. The monitoring approach relies on standardized methods that allow results to be compared over time and across habitat types, supporting trend detection and habitat association analysis. The work builds directly on an ongoing statewide monitoring effort that began in 2002, led by the Great Basin Bird Observatory, which has been measuring bird abundance and density across Nevada in thirteen distinct habitat types. By continuing these surveys, the project helps maintain long-term datasets that are especially valuable for understanding population changes that might not be detectable through short-term studies.
The data generated through this long-running monitoring program are used to inform conservation and management decisions for priority species. Specifically, the information supports understanding where priority migratory birds occur in Nevada, how abundant they are locally, and how they use habitats during the breeding season. The program also contributes summaries of habitat features that scientific studies have identified as important to conservation, which can help land managers link on-the-ground habitat conditions to bird population outcomes. This kind of monitoring can be used to guide habitat management priorities, evaluate the potential effects of land use actions, and track whether conservation strategies are aligning with observed trends.
Eligibility listed in the announcement is limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). Because the announcement is a non-competitive continuation notice rather than an open solicitation, the eligibility language is best read as describing the type of entity that can receive the award, not as an invitation for multiple organizations to apply.
For anyone needing help accessing the full announcement or with administrative questions, the listed contact is Susan Kaller, Grants and Agreements Specialist, at 775-861-6559 or skaller@blm.gov.
