Opportunity Summary:
The Row River Trail (RRT) Mechanical Maintenance grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00126) is a discretionary funding program offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under the Natural Resources activity category. It is designed to support on-the-ground, practical maintenance work along the Row River Trail corridor using mechanical vegetation management methods. The core purpose is straightforward: keep the trail corridor clear, safe, and usable by applying routine mechanical maintenance techniques such as mowing, blowing, and sweeping to manage vegetation and trail debris.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the BLM expects to have an active role in the project beyond simply providing funds. The announcement anticipated making a single award (Expected Awards: 1). While the estimated total funding available for the opportunity is listed as $100,000, the award size is constrained by a stated ceiling of $25,000 and a floor of $1. In practice, that means applications would need to propose a scope of work and budget that fit within that $1 to $25k range for the award itself, even though the overall program funding noted in the posting is higher.
Eligible applicants are limited to city or township governments. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute a non-federal match as a condition of receiving funds. The funding is associated with CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 15.234, Secure Rural Schools and Community Self Determination, which is commonly tied to projects that benefit rural communities and local infrastructure or services connected to federal lands and surrounding areas.
Key dates in the posting show it was made public on June 2, 2014, with an application closing date of June 17, 2014 (the original and current closing dates are the same). The opportunity was later archived on June 1, 2015. Applicants were directed to the announcement materials and application package via the "APPLICATION" tab in the original posting, and the point of contact listed for help accessing the full announcement was Jessica Clark at the BLM (503-808-6226, j1clark@blm.gov).
