Opportunity Information: Apply for BOR UC 19 N002
This funding opportunity, titled "Save Our Bosque Task Force for Proposed Project HR Monitoring and Maintenance Activities" (Funding Opportunity Number: BOR UC 19 N002), is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation. It is designed to support on-the-ground monitoring and maintenance work that feeds directly into the adaptive management approach used for habitat restoration along the Middle Rio Grande. In practical terms, the goal is to generate reliable field data and complete routine maintenance actions so restoration strategies can be adjusted over time based on what is actually happening at project sites, rather than relying on assumptions.
The project scope is broad and centered on ecosystem condition tracking and habitat upkeep. Key activities include surveying for noxious weeds and other nonnative vegetation, followed by targeted control efforts to reduce invasive plant impacts. It also includes vegetation monitoring to evaluate plant community composition and trends, as well as physical site condition monitoring to document factors like site stability and any changes that may affect habitat quality. The work plan further covers restoration of native vegetation, which typically involves re-establishing native plant species and improving conditions that allow them to persist.
A notable technical component is the installation of groundwater monitoring wells, paired with baseline site assessments. Together, these actions establish a starting point for measuring change and help connect groundwater conditions to vegetation performance and habitat outcomes, which is especially relevant in riparian systems like the Middle Rio Grande. The project also includes habitat maintenance work, meaning ongoing actions needed to keep restored areas functional, such as follow-up weed treatments, repair of minor damage, or upkeep of restoration features.
In addition to field implementation, the opportunity explicitly includes site-specific environmental compliance for the proposed monitoring and maintenance actions. That signals the award is expected to incorporate the necessary compliance steps that may apply to federal-supported work, ensuring activities are documented and conducted in alignment with applicable environmental requirements. Deliverables also include report writing, indicating the recipient is expected to compile findings, document methods and results, and provide usable information for restoration decision-making. Community outreach is another required element, reflecting an expectation that the recipient will engage the public or local stakeholders, share progress, and help build awareness and support for habitat restoration work.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The listing is associated with CFDA number 15.517. The opportunity was created on August 19, 2019, with an original closing date of September 1, 2019. Funding is capped at an award ceiling of $250,000, and the agency anticipated making one award, meaning the program was structured as a single-recipient cooperative effort rather than a multi-award competition.Apply for BOR UC 19 N002
