Opportunity Summary:
The "Shadehill, Keyhole, and Dickinson Reservoir Boundary Fencing (North Dakota)" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R13SS60015) is a discretionary grant offered by the Bureau of Reclamation, Great Plains Region, through its Dakotas Area Office. The project focuses on on-the-ground natural resource site stewardship work at three Bureau of Reclamation locations: Keyhole Reservoir, Shadehill Reservoir, and Dickinson Reservoir. The core purpose is to address boundary and site fencing needs by installing new fencing where required, repairing existing fencing that can be salvaged, and removing old or dilapidated fencing that is no longer functional or safe. In practical terms, the work is meant to improve boundary definition and site management, reduce safety hazards associated with failing fence lines, and support responsible operation and protection of these reservoir lands.
The opportunity is structured as a grant with one anticipated award, and it is tied to CFDA 15.546, the Youth Conservation Program. The total estimated funding for the award is $39,825, which is also listed as the award ceiling, meaning the top amount expected for a single recipient is $39,825. The award floor is listed as $0, indicating proposals could potentially request less than the maximum depending on the work plan and budget. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants are expected to contribute non-federal resources (such as cash, in-kind labor, donated materials, equipment time, or other allowable contributions) as part of the project.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. This aligns with the Youth Conservation Program focus and suggests the work may be well-suited to conservation corps-type organizations or nonprofits capable of organizing supervised field crews, delivering hands-on conservation and maintenance projects, and meeting federal grant administration standards.
The posting date and creation date were June 24, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 8, 2013. The opportunity was archived on July 14, 2013. Interested parties who needed help accessing the full announcement electronically were directed to contact the grants officer, Leisa Philbin, at 406-247-7606.
