Opportunity Summary:
The SNPLMA Round 13 PTNA Approved Project Implementation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L13AS00020) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement intended to put previously approved Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act (SNPLMA) Round 13 projects into action. It focused specifically on the Parks, Trails and Natural Areas (PTNA) category, meaning the funded work was aimed at on-the-ground development and improvement of public recreation and conservation amenities such as parks, trail systems, and natural areas. The projects covered by this round were located in Clark County, Carson City, and Lincoln County, Nevada, and the Department of the Interior approval for the estimated expenditures from the SNPLMA Special Account was dated September 24, 2012, indicating these were not concept-stage proposals but implementation of projects already vetted and authorized for funding.
The award mechanism for this opportunity was a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates BLM expected to have substantial involvement during the project period compared with a standard grant. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, consistent with building and enhancing recreation infrastructure and protecting or managing natural landscapes and public access features. There were an estimated six awards anticipated under the announcement, with an estimated total program funding amount of $1,966,278. Individual awards were expected to fall between an award floor of $252,700 and an award ceiling of $473,675, giving applicants a clear sense of the likely size of each cooperative agreement.
Eligibility was limited to local government entities, specifically city or township governments and county governments. No cost sharing or matching requirement was listed, so applicants were not required to provide a non-federal match as a condition of receiving funding, which can reduce barriers for local governments seeking to complete capital or implementation work on public amenities.
The opportunity was posted and created on January 28, 2013, with an original and current closing date of March 29, 2013, and it was later archived on April 29, 2013. Applicants needing access to the full announcement or experiencing technical issues were directed to contact Susan Kaller, Grants and Agreements Specialist at BLM, by phone at 775-861-6559 or via email at skaller@blm.gov.
