Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Restoring and Maintaining the ecosystem on the Uncompahgre Plateau" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00113). The project focuses on continuing a landscape-scale ecosystem management effort on the Uncompahgre Plateau and nearby areas. The core objective is collaborative implementation: the selected recipient would work jointly with the BLM and coordinate with private and other non-federal landowners to carry out restoration and long-term maintenance activities that support ecosystem health across mixed-ownership landscapes. In practice, the emphasis on working with non-federal partners signals that the effort is designed to align management actions across jurisdictional boundaries, which is often necessary for effective habitat restoration, wildlife and plant conservation, watershed or range improvements, and broader natural resource resilience.
This opportunity was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expected to remain substantially involved during the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The activity category was Environment and Natural Resources, and it was tied to CFDA 15.231, "Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management." The announcement anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $475,000 and an award ceiling of $475,000 (no stated minimum award amount, with an award floor listed as $0). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal match funding to be considered, although partnerships and leveraged resources are often important in landscape-scale efforts of this type.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any entity type), with the key condition that the proposed project or program must directly address the purpose described in the announcement. The opportunity was posted and created on May 14, 2014, with an original and current closing date of June 6, 2014. It was later archived on July 31, 2014. Applicants were directed to the full announcement and application package through the "Application" tab referenced in the listing, which would have contained the detailed scope of work, required forms, evaluation criteria, and submission instructions.
For assistance accessing the announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Ruth A. Raisanen at the BLM, reachable at 303-239-3605 or by email at rraisane@blm.gov.
