Opportunity Summary:

The Wildlife Energy Development Project (Funding Opportunity Number WO NOI 08 8010) was a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), under the CFDA program 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management). It was structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the BLM expected to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as coordination, technical input, or shared planning with the recipient rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The main aim of the project was to support more effective and more consistent fish and wildlife conservation while energy resources are being developed across the western United States. In practical terms, the opportunity focused on reducing conflicts between expanding energy development and the needs of fish and wildlife by improving conservation approaches and ensuring they are applied in a more uniform way across projects and locations.

Funding for the opportunity was relatively small and targeted. The estimated total funding available was $40,000, with one expected award. The award amount was fixed at $20,000 (both the floor and ceiling were $20,000), which suggests either a single project at that amount or a very narrowly defined funding structure. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning eligible applicants were not required to contribute additional non-federal funds to receive the award.

Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. That points to an intent to partner with conservation-focused nonprofit organizations that can work directly on applied conservation efforts, coordination, or development of consistent practices related to wildlife considerations in energy development contexts.

Key dates show this was a time-limited, archived opportunity. It was posted on August 18, 2008, with an application deadline of September 1, 2008, and it was archived on October 1, 2008. For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the announcement, the listed point of contact was Vieda Hubbard, Grants and Agreements Specialist at the Bureau of Land Management, reachable by phone at (202) 452-5034.
