Opportunity Summary:
The Susanville Depot Visitor Center Trail Planning opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CA NOI08 2005) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding notice intended to continue and formalize a long-running partnership between BLM and the Lassen Land and Trails Trust. Since 1994, BLM has supported the Trust through various agreements so the Trust could operate the Susanville Railroad Depot as both a trailhead and a visitor center for the Bizz Johnson Trail. This grant was designed to fund a new cooperative agreement that would keep those depot-based visitor services and trailhead functions operating while also expanding the Trust's role in helping BLM carry out trail-related priorities identified in the Eagle Lake Field Office Resource Management Plan adopted in May 2008. In practical terms, the project centered on visitor center operations tied to recreation access and trail use, along with planning and support work that would help implement broader trail elements on BLM-managed lands in the field office area.
The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, which usually signals that BLM anticipated an active role in coordination or oversight rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The activity category was listed under Community Development, and the CFDA number associated with the program was 15.225 (Recreation Resource Management), reflecting its focus on recreation infrastructure, visitor services, and trail planning/implementation. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $125,000. The award ceiling was also $125,000, meaning the maximum expected award aligned with the total funding available, while the minimum award floor was listed as $1,000. A cost sharing or matching requirement applied, so the recipient would have been expected to contribute some level of non-federal share (such as cash, in-kind services, volunteer labor, or other allowable match depending on the agreement terms).
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The posting date and creation date were both August 11, 2008, with an original and current closing date of August 27, 2008, and the opportunity archived on August 31, 2008. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Leona Parker, Grants and Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 530-252-5338.
