This document is an Attachment A Project Proposal template form from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for Financial Assistance Cooperative Agreements, which must be submitted along with Standard Form (SF) 424. The template provides a structured format for applicants to detail their proposed projects across several key sections including: Project Abstract, Designated Watershed Area, Statement of Need, Technical Approach, Project Monitoring and Evaluation Plan, Timetable/Milestones, Public Benefit, Qualifications/Past Performance, Leveraging of Resources, and Overlap/Duplication Statement.

The form requires specific information about project metrics, timelines, and measurable outcomes that will be tracked by BLM Program Officers. Key required elements include: a 150-word project description, 200-word explanations of how the project aligns with DOI priorities and BLM management actions, detailed methodology and data collection plans, milestone tables with specific measurable outputs, documentation of past performance on federal agreements (limited to past 3 years), and explicit statements regarding any potential overlap with other federally funded projects. The template emphasizes the need for concrete, measurable outcomes and clear project monitoring plans for evaluating performance of all involved parties including subrecipients and contractors.
