Opportunity Summary:
The Utah Off Highway Vehicle Safety and Ethics Awareness grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00320) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding program designed to promote responsible off-highway vehicle (OHV) use in Utah. The main goal is straightforward: BLM, working through a cooperative agreement with a selected partner, intends to coordinate with other agencies to encourage OHV riders to remain on designated trails. By strengthening safety, ethics, and trail-compliance messaging, the project aims to reduce the kinds of off-trail impacts that can damage natural and sensitive public-land resources.
The opportunity emphasizes practical stewardship outcomes tied to recreation management. When riders stay on designated routes, it helps protect wildlife habitat, reduces disturbance to cultural resources (including archaeological or historic sites), and limits harm to watersheds by preventing soil erosion, sediment runoff, and vegetation loss. In other words, the grant is structured around the idea that education and coordinated outreach can translate into on-the-ground behavior change, which then reduces long-term management and restoration burdens on public lands.
Funding is offered as a single expected award in the form of a cooperative agreement, meaning BLM anticipates being actively involved in the project beyond simply issuing funds. The total estimated funding is $10,000, with an award ceiling and floor both set at $10,000, indicating a fixed-size award rather than a range. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement listed, which lowers barriers for applicants who may not have additional funds to contribute. The activity aligns with the Natural Resources category and is associated with CFDA 15.225 (Recreation Resource Management), reflecting its focus on managing recreation to protect broader resource values.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it is open to any type of entity, subject to any further clarifications that may have appeared in the full announcement. The posting date was August 26, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 9, 2010, and an archive date of October 31, 2010, indicating this was a time-limited opportunity that has since been archived. Anyone seeking the full announcement details was directed to Grants.gov via the additional information link.
For applicants or interested parties who had difficulty accessing the announcement, the point of contact provided was Maria Gochis, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 801-539-4178 or by email at mariagochis@blm.gov.
