Opportunity Summary:
The Trinity River Recreation Development and Environmental Education Project is a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on improving recreation and recreation-related transportation management on BLM-managed lands in Trinity County, California. The project is designed to expand and enhance public recreational opportunities while also addressing how visitor access and travel are managed in connection with recreation use. A central feature of the opportunity is that proposed work should help the BLM meet specific land management objectives already established in the Redding Resource Management Plan and its accompanying Record of Decision, meaning projects are expected to align with existing planning direction rather than creating a new management framework.
In addition to on-the-ground recreation and access improvements, the opportunity includes a strong environmental education and interpretation component. Applicants are expected to provide programs that educate schools and the broader public, which may include interpretive materials, guided activities, outreach events, or other learning-focused efforts that help people understand local natural and cultural resources and responsible recreation practices. Overall, the grant blends practical recreation development with stewardship-oriented public education, aiming to improve the visitor experience while supporting sustainable land management outcomes.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, indicating that BLM anticipates substantial involvement or collaboration during project implementation rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant with minimal agency engagement. The opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $500,000, with an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $500, suggesting that awards may be structured as a limited number of larger agreements rather than many small ones. The expected number of awards is three. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the financial barrier for eligible organizations and allows proposals to be built without needing to secure non-federal match funding.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.225, Recreation Resource Management. The opportunity was posted and created on April 28, 2010, with an application closing date of June 1, 2010.
For applicants needing the full announcement or additional details, the listing points to Grants.gov and provides a BLM contact for assistance: Leona B. Parker, Grants Management Officer, at 530-252-5338 and lparker@blm.gov.
