Opportunity Summary:

The SNPLMA Riparian Restoration Muddy River opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00243) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding competition focused on natural resource conservation work in Clark County, Nevada. The goal was to partner with a local recipient to protect, enhance, and restore habitat on public lands, specifically targeting riparian resources associated with the Muddy River area. The announcement falls under the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act program (CFDA 15.235), reflecting an emphasis on improving and sustaining environmentally sensitive areas in southern Nevada.

This funding was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expected to have substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The agency planned to make one award, with an exact project funding amount set at $88,650 (the estimated total funding, award ceiling, and award floor were all the same). No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which reduces financial barriers for eligible applicants.

Eligibility was limited to county governments, aligning with the local nature of riparian management and restoration and the likelihood that counties already coordinate land and water resource planning in the region. The opportunity was posted and created on July 22, 2014, with an original and final closing date of August 5, 2014, and it was archived on September 5, 2014. Applicants were directed to the official application materials and detailed instructions through the announcement's application tab, and technical access issues were to be handled through the listed BLM grants contact, Gretchen Eykelbosh (775-861-6740, geykelbosh@blm.gov).
