Opportunity Summary:

The Trail Management Plan Implemenation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00095) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement intended to support the implementation of a multi-jurisdictional trails management plan covering the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains in California. The activity falls under the Community Development funding activity category, with the associated CFDA program listed as 15.225, Recreation Resource Management. In practical terms, the opportunity was focused on coordinated trail management across multiple jurisdictions, meaning it was meant to help align planning, maintenance, visitor use, and resource protection efforts among different land managers and agencies operating in the same mountain region.

The funding instrument for this opportunity was a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that BLM expected to remain substantially involved in the project during performance, rather than issuing a hands-off grant. The announcement listed an estimated total funding amount of $477,000, with an award ceiling of $477,000 and an award floor of $40,000. Only one award was expected. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants would not have been required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.

Although the eligibility field is labeled as "Unrestricted" (open to any type of entity, subject to clarifications in the full text), the provided eligibility information makes clear that this posting functioned as a Notice of Intent to award to a specific recipient: the Coachella Valley Conservation Commission (CVCC). That language generally signals the agency has already identified the intended awardee and is posting the notice to meet public transparency and administrative requirements, rather than running a fully open competitive selection.

The opportunity was posted on May 21, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 1, 2010. The short window between posting and closing is consistent with a notice-of-intent style action where the agency is not expecting broad competition. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement via Grants.gov was directed to contact Andralee Holden Hughes, Grants Management Officer, at 951-697-5200 or via email at jholden@blm.gov and judyholden@ca.blm.gov. The listing also provided an additional information link through Grants.gov for the full announcement details.
