Opportunity Summary:
The Northern Utah Interagency Fire Center Project (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00107) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant/cooperative agreement intended to support the planning and construction of a new interagency wildland fire dispatch center in northern Utah. The project is tied to the FY 2011-2015 Five Year Deferred Maintenance and Capital Improvement Plan, which set aside a total of $3.2 million across fiscal years 2010 through 2012 to deliver the facility. The overall goal is to create a dedicated dispatch center that strengthens interagency coordination for wildland fire response by bringing partners together in a purpose-built location.
Funding is structured to start with early planning work and then move into construction. In FY 2010, BLM planned to transfer $280,000 to the recipient to complete plans and other preliminary tasks needed before construction begins. The building itself was expected to be constructed during FY 2011 and FY 2012. The estimated total federal funding for the opportunity is $3,200,000, with an award floor of $280,000 and an award ceiling of $3,200,000, and the announcement anticipated a single award.
A key feature of the project is the division of responsibilities among partners. The State of Utah is identified as the recipient and would contribute significant non-federal support by providing the construction site on state-owned land at the Lone Peak location in Draper, Utah. Beyond the land contribution, the State of Utah would also provide personnel, expertise, and equipment available to them to help construct the building. After construction, the United States Forest Service would participate as a third party by supplying much of the equipment and furnishings needed to outfit the facility. This arrangement reflects the interagency nature of the dispatch center, with different entities contributing resources aligned to their roles.
Administratively, the opportunity was posted May 25, 2010, with a closing date of June 15, 2010, and an archive date of July 15, 2010. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial federal involvement during project execution rather than a simple pass-through grant. The activity category is listed as “Other,” clarified as a Fire Program, and the associated CFDA number is 15.239 (Management Initiatives). The notice states there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement as a formal condition of the award, even though major in-kind and partner contributions (land, personnel, equipment, furnishings) are central to how the project is intended to be delivered.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted in the source data, although the narrative clearly centers on the State of Utah as the intended recipient for the initial transfer and subsequent project work. For access issues or further questions tied to the announcement, the listed grants management contact is Maria Gochis, Grants Management Officer, at 801-539-4178 or mariagochis@blm.gov, and the general posting location referenced is Grants.gov.
