Opportunity Summary:

The Round 12 Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act (SNPLMA) funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00023) was a discretionary federal grant program administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to carry out a set of previously approved Round 12 projects in the Parks, Trails and Natural Areas category. The core purpose of the opportunity was implementation: it was aimed at moving authorized projects into on-the-ground work that supports the development or improvement of parks, trail systems, and natural areas located in Clark County and Lincoln County, Nevada. The underlying funding source was the SNPLMA Special Account, and the estimated expenditures tied to these Round 12 projects were approved by the Secretary of the Interior on August 9, 2011, which established the basis for making funds available for these specific activities.

This opportunity was offered as a Cooperative Agreement, which generally signals a more hands-on federal role than a standard grant. In practical terms, that usually means BLM would anticipate substantial involvement during project implementation, such as coordination on technical standards, compliance steps, monitoring, or other collaboration necessary to deliver public land and recreation-related outcomes. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, aligning the program with conservation, outdoor recreation infrastructure, and land stewardship goals in southern Nevada.

The total estimated funding available under the announcement was $1,319,222, with an expectation of three awards. Individual awards were projected to fall within a relatively narrow band, with an award floor of $381,700 and an award ceiling of $471,892. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal dollars as a condition of eligibility under this posting (though project budgets in practice can still include partner contributions or leveraged resources depending on the project design and local priorities).

Eligibility was limited to local government entities, specifically county governments and city or township governments. That eligibility scope fits the nature of the Parks, Trails and Natural Areas category, since local governments are often the entities that plan, build, own, and maintain community parks and regional trail networks, and they are typically positioned to manage long-term operations and maintenance once construction or improvements are complete.

Key administrative dates show the opportunity was posted and created on February 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of October 12, 2012. The archive date was October 19, 2012, indicating the announcement was later closed and filed as historical. The CFDA number associated with this funding was 15.235 (Southern Nevada Public Land Management), which is the federal assistance listing historically used to track SNPLMA financial assistance.

The announcement also indicated that further details were available through the "Full Announcement" section of the posting, which would typically contain the full scope, required application components, evaluation criteria, reporting expectations, and any compliance requirements tied to implementing projects funded through the SNPLMA Special Account.
