Opportunity Summary:
The Public Access Challenge Cost Share Project (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00194) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding opportunity focused on protecting and securing public access across privately owned lands at key pinch points so the larger BLM route system remains continuous and usable. In practical terms, the project’s intent was to address situations where a road, trail, or connecting segment that is important to the public’s ability to reach and travel across BLM-managed lands is interrupted by private inholdings or private parcels. By improving or formalizing access at those locations, the BLM aimed to prevent gaps in the route network and reduce the risk of routes becoming effectively unusable due to access disputes, closures, or lack of legal connectivity.
The award instrument was a cooperative agreement, which typically means the BLM expected to be substantially involved in the project’s implementation rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The opportunity was listed under the environment activity category and referenced CFDA 15.238 (Challenge Cost Share). Even though the program name includes “cost share,†the posting indicated no cost-sharing or matching requirement for applicants under this announcement.
Funding was limited and targeted: the agency anticipated making one award with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $1. The opportunity was posted on July 16, 2010, and the application deadline (original and current closing date) was July 31, 2010. The opportunity was later archived on August 16, 2010, meaning it is no longer open for applications.
Eligibility was broadly open (“unrestrictedâ€) with specific exclusions noted in the eligibility information. Individuals, for-profit organizations, and organizations not recognized by the federal government were not eligible to apply. Aside from those restrictions, the opportunity was open to other entity types, subject to any further details that would have appeared in the full announcement on Grants.gov.
For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the complete announcement, the listed point of contact was Paul Stout, Grants Management Officer at the BLM, reachable by phone at 602-417-9268 or by email at paulstout@blm.gov. The additional information link pointed to Grants.gov (http://www.grants.gov) for the full posting and any application instructions that were part of the original announcement.
