Opportunity Summary:
The Row River Trail Safety Corridor Planning, Survey, Design and Analysis grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00190) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding program focused on recreation resource management (CFDA 15.225). Its core purpose was to fund a cooperative agreement that brings BLM and partner organizations together to plan and analyze safety improvements along the Row River Trail. The emphasis was on collaboration and pooling resources and technical expertise so the trail remains a safe, high-quality recreational asset over the long term, while also helping the public better understand and take responsibility for safe travel and appropriate behavior on the trail.
This opportunity was structured as a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, which typically means BLM expected to be actively involved with the selected recipient during the project (for example, coordinating tasks, contributing technical input, and working jointly on planning and design decisions). The project scope highlighted in the title points to corridor-level safety work, including planning, surveying, design, and analysis activities. In practical terms, that usually covers evaluating existing conditions, identifying conflict points or hazards, collecting field data through survey work, developing design concepts or plans for improvements, and producing analysis that supports decisions about how to reduce risk and improve user experience. The description also makes clear that part of the intended outcome was educational and behavioral: improving recognition among trail users of the responsibility they assume when traveling the Row River Trail.
Funding for the announcement was relatively modest but targeted. The estimated total funding amount listed was $100,000, with an award ceiling of $30,000 and a floor of $1, suggesting the agency anticipated a limited number of awards and relatively small, discrete project budgets. The listing also indicated an expectation of one award. No cost sharing or matching requirement was stated, meaning applicants were not required to provide non-federal match to be eligible, though partners could still contribute in-kind support or complementary resources as part of the collaboration.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity (such as nonprofits, local governments, tribes, academic institutions, or other organizations), subject to any additional eligibility details that would have been provided in the full announcement package. Applicants were directed to use the application materials and instructions available through the announcement, and a BLM contact (Jessica Clark, 503-808-6226, j1clark@blm.gov) was provided for assistance, especially if there were problems accessing the documents electronically.
The timing information shows this was a time-limited opportunity posted on July 25, 2012, with an application deadline of August 8, 2012, and it was later archived on July 24, 2013. Overall, the opportunity centered on improving safety and long-term recreational value on the Row River Trail through coordinated planning and technical work, with a clear expectation that the project would also reinforce public awareness of safe and responsible trail use.
