Opportunity Summary:
The National Association of Conservation Districts grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM WO NOI 09 1352) was issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior as a discretionary funding notice and is structured as a cooperative agreement. The purpose described in the announcement is to support conservation improvements that provide a clear public benefit, with the award intended to be made to the National Association of Conservation Districts. The program area falls under environmental work, specifically tied to CFDA 15.233, Forests and Woodlands Resource Management, which signals that the underlying activities are expected to relate to practical conservation and stewardship outcomes connected to forest and woodland resources.
Funding for this notice was relatively modest and narrowly targeted. The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000. However, the listed award ceiling was $20,000, with an award floor of $0, meaning individual award amounts could vary up to that cap depending on the final agreement and the approved scope of work. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which lowers the barrier for the recipient organization to carry out the work without needing to secure additional non-federal funding as a condition of the award.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. Even though the eligibility category is broader than a single named organization, the announcement itself is a Notice of Intent indicating the agency planned to make the award to the National Association of Conservation Districts, which typically suggests a directed or sole-source style action where the agency has identified a specific partner as the best fit to accomplish the objectives under the cooperative agreement framework.
The notice was posted and created on August 13, 2009, with an original and current closing date of August 27, 2009, and it was archived on September 7, 2009. Applications and full details were available through Grants.gov at www.grants.gov/Apply. For applicants or members of the public who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Lisa Ensley, Grants Management Officer at the Bureau of Land Management, reachable by phone at 202-912-7098 or by email at lisaensley@blm.gov.
