Opportunity Summary:

The Washington State NRCS RCD Announcement (Funding Opportunity Number USDA NRCS WA 10 01) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered through the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, Washington State Office, to support the Resource Conservation and Development (RCD) program within Washington. The purpose is to help RCD councils and related RCD entities stimulate new and ongoing conservation work and promote the wise development and stewardship of natural resources. Funding is awarded through a statewide competitive process, meaning eligible applicants compete against one another and awards are made based on how well proposed projects meet the program goals and requirements.

For fiscal year 2010, NRCS anticipated approximately $34,000 total available under this announcement, with an expected three awards statewide. Individual grant awards were projected to range from a minimum (floor) of $1,000 to a maximum (ceiling) of $15,000. The opportunity also includes a cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants needed to plan for providing eligible match contributions in addition to requested federal funds.

Eligibility is limited to RCD entities located within Washington State, and applications were requested specifically from eligible RCD Councils within the state. Projects funded under this notice were intended to be one year in duration and had to be tied directly to established RCD planning documents. In practical terms, proposed activities needed to contribute to action items identified in the RCD Council Area Plans and in the councils Annual Plans of Work. Another key condition was accountability: projects were required to produce reportable, measurable deliverables during the FY 2010 to 2011 period, ensuring the work could be documented and reported by NRCS within that timeframe.

The opportunity was posted on January 11, 2010, and the application deadline (original and current) was February 5, 2010, with the listing archived on March 7, 2010. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the funding instrument type is a grant. For assistance accessing the full announcement electronically, the notice directed applicants to contact Amy Smith, Contract Specialist, at 509-323-2925.
