Opportunity Information: Apply for L17AS00124
The grant opportunity titled "BLM-WY, Greater Sage-Grouse Seasonal Habitat Assessment and Modeling" (Funding Opportunity Number L17AS00124) is a competitive, discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is designed to support a focused project in Wyoming that improves understanding of greater sage-grouse habitat needs and how those needs change across seasons. The work is specifically tied to public lands managed within the BLM Rock Springs Field Office area and emphasizes locations identified as sagebrush focal areas and priority habitat management areas, which are places generally recognized as especially important for sage-grouse conservation and management.
The central purpose of the project is research and assessment aimed at determining what makes habitat suitable for greater sage-grouse and how different environmental and landscape factors affect that suitability. A major emphasis is on functional connectivity, meaning how well sage-grouse can move between habitat areas in ways that support breeding, nesting, brood-rearing, and winter survival. The opportunity also targets seasonal movement, recognizing that sage-grouse use different habitat types at different times of the year and may rely on travel corridors or connected patches of sagebrush to complete their annual cycle. In addition, the project is intended to address population dynamics, which can include patterns that influence survival and reproduction, and how those patterns relate to habitat conditions and connectivity across the landscape.
The funding instrument for this opportunity is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that BLM expects to have substantial involvement during the project, such as coordination on study design, data needs, deliverables, and how results will be applied to management decisions. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA number associated with the program is 15.231. The opportunity anticipated making one award, with a maximum federal funding amount (award ceiling) of $100,000.
Eligibility is broad and includes state, county, and local governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). This mix of eligible applicants suggests the BLM intended the project to be accessible to universities, research groups, conservation organizations, and governmental or tribal partners capable of conducting field-based assessments, spatial analysis, and habitat modeling relevant to sage-grouse management.
Key administrative details include a posting/creation date of May 25, 2017, and an original application deadline of June 24, 2017. In practical terms, the opportunity sought to fund a single, management-relevant research effort that would generate information and models BLM could use to evaluate seasonal habitat suitability, identify factors shaping connectivity and movement, and better understand how habitat conditions on BLM-managed public lands in the Rock Springs Field Office area relate to sage-grouse population outcomes.Apply for L17AS00124
