Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Projected Climate Change Relevant to BLM Managed Lands on Alaskas North Slope" is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement focused on improving climate change analysis for federal land planning and environmental documentation in northern Alaska. The core purpose is to develop gridded, map-based models that project the effects of climate change across Alaskas North Slope, with specific relevance to BLM-managed lands and the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A). The resulting datasets and analyses are intended to strengthen the way the "affected environment" is described in NPR-A materials, which is a key component of environmental review and land management decision-making.
The project is structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, which generally signals that BLM expects a higher level of involvement and collaboration during the work. The funding activity category is natural resources, and the opportunity is listed under CFDA 15.236 (Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute additional funds to qualify.
In terms of funding, the opportunity anticipated a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1). The estimated total funding amount is listed as $90,000, while the award ceiling and award floor are both stated as $35,000, indicating the planned individual award amount for this particular posting is fixed at $35,000 even though the broader program line item shows a larger estimate. The announcement was posted on August 18, 2010, with an application closing date of September 13, 2010, and it was later archived on October 31, 2010.
Eligibility is described as "unrestricted" in the sense that many entity types could apply, but with a major condition: the award is issued under the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) program. That requirement means the successful recipient must already be a participant in the CESU network. The announcement explains that the work involves data analysis and scientific collaboration characterized as technical assistance, and that the project aligns with CESU goals of providing research, technical assistance, and education to federal land management, environmental, and research agencies. In practical terms, an applicant who is not part of a CESU would need to be associated with or eligible through a participating CESU institution to receive the award.
