Opportunity Summary:
The Utah Statewide Guzzler Maintenance Project (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00205) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Utah funding opportunity focused on keeping wildlife water infrastructure functioning across public lands in Utah. The project continues work under an existing agreement (JSA055013) that was set to expire during the fiscal year. Over time, BLM Utah and the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) have installed hundreds of "guzzlers" (wildlife water developments designed to collect and store water) across the state. Because many species, including big game and upland game, now rely on these sites as dependable water sources, failures at guzzlers can force animals to travel farther for water, increase stress during hot or dry periods, and in extreme cases contribute to wildlife mortality when water is unavailable.
The central purpose of the grant is to support ongoing maintenance and operational continuity of these guzzlers statewide. Funding is intended to cover activities such as repairing broken components, replacing worn or failed parts, restoring guzzlers that have become nonfunctional, and maintaining water developments that have deteriorated due to age, weather, or use. Another key element is refilling or otherwise restoring water availability at guzzler sites that have gone dry, helping ensure that established wildlife watering locations remain viable. In addition to maintenance and repair, the opportunity also allows for the installation and construction of new wildlife water developments on public lands, expanding or improving the network where needed.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources activity category, tied to CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). The posting and creation date were July 20, 2010, with an application closing date of August 6, 2010, and an archive date of September 30, 2010. The announcement anticipated a single award. The estimated total funding amount listed was $150,000, while the award ceiling and floor were both stated as $28,000, indicating the expected award amount per the posting details. No cost sharing or matching requirement was specified.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may have been included in the full announcement on Grants.gov. For applicants or parties needing assistance accessing the full opportunity details, the listed contact was Maria Gochis, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 801-539-4178 or mariagochis@blm.gov. The official additional information link provided in the posting was http://www.grants.gov.
