Opportunity Summary:
The "Synergistic Monitoring CESU Project" notice (Funding Opportunity Number BLM NV NOI 09 1301) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) public announcement stating the agency's intent to fund a specific set of project activities through a cooperative agreement, but not through a typical competitive application process. In practical terms, it is not asking the public to apply. Instead, it serves as formal notice that BLM plans to move forward with funding without full and open competition because the work is positioned as an add-on to an existing, long-running effort that BLM has already been supporting.
The project itself is tied to the USGS Digital Land Treatment Data Library (DLTL), an established initiative that organizes and provides access to information about land treatment actions. BLM has been a partner in that DLTL effort since 2005. The notice explains that the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) is involved via a subcontract under USGS, and that the BLM Washington Office is supporting a Nevada BLM-specific component within that UNR subproject. Put simply, the funding is meant to extend or enhance ongoing DLTL work by adding elements tailored to BLM's needs in Nevada, rather than launching a brand-new standalone project.
From a program purpose standpoint, the notice frames this add-on work as desirable because it would support continued development of BLM's Assessment, Inventory and Monitoring (AIM) Program. While the project is described as "not required," it is presented as beneficial for strengthening BLM's monitoring and information-management capabilities, especially in ways that align with AIM objectives such as improving consistency and usefulness of monitoring data for land management decisions.
Administratively, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement instrument, indicating an expectation of substantial involvement or collaboration by the federal agency rather than a hands-off grant. The activity category is environment, and the CFDA listing included is 15.237 (Rangeland Resource Management), which signals the broader management domain the work supports. The announcement anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $10,000, and it specified that no cost share or matching funds were required.
Although the eligibility field is listed as "unrestricted," the narrative makes clear that the funding is intended for a specific continuation/add-on arrangement connected to the existing DLTL partnership and the UNR/USGS subcontract structure, which is why the notice emphasizes that it is not a request for applications. Key dates provided include a posted and creation date of July 10, 2009, an original and current closing date of September 1, 2009, and an archive date of October 1, 2009. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed contact is Susan Kaller, Grants Management Officer (skaller@blm.gov).
