Opportunity Summary:
The RRCNCA grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NOI NV R 0808108) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) continuation notice of intent to make a single cooperative agreement award to Friends of Red Rock. The purpose is to strengthen and expand volunteer involvement connected to the Red Rock area, with an emphasis on organizing and supporting a broad range of volunteer projects that help carry out priorities in the National Conservation Area Resource Management Plan. In practical terms, the project is framed as building a structured, ongoing cooperative framework that makes it easier for the public to get involved, increases awareness and support for conservation-area goals, and improves coordination so volunteer efforts are aligned with the management plan rather than being scattered or one-off events.
A major focus of the opportunity is partnership development and coordination. The notice specifically calls for identifying existing public and private partnerships and then building on them by developing new partnerships. That points to work like mapping out current collaborators, clarifying roles, finding gaps where additional partners could help, and creating processes that make participation straightforward for community groups, local organizations, and other stakeholders. The expected outcome is a stronger network around the conservation area that can sustain volunteer projects over time, not just during peak seasons or special events.
From an administrative standpoint, this is categorized as a continuation opportunity and the instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which typically means BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project, such as coordinating activities, providing guidance tied to federal land management requirements, and working closely with the recipient on implementation. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing included is 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management), signaling that volunteer work and partnerships may include stewardship activities that support cultural and resource protection goals in addition to general conservation and recreation-related efforts.
The posting date and timeline show this was a time-limited, agency-directed award notice rather than an open competition. It was posted September 5, 2008, with a closing date of September 9, 2008, and archived on September 10, 2008. Only one award was expected. The listing indicates no cost sharing or matching requirement. The estimated total funding and award floor/ceiling are shown as $0 in the source data, which commonly reflects that the dollar amount was not entered into the public listing rather than meaning no funds would be provided.
Eligibility is listed as nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (other than institutions of higher education). However, the narrative makes clear this is a notice of intent specifically naming Friends of Red Rock as the intended recipient, so eligibility in practice is essentially limited to that organization for this action.
For access or administrative questions, the contact provided is Alice Wilson, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at (702) 515-5124.
