Opportunity Information: Apply for L22AS00278
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering a Nevada-focused grant opportunity called "Bureau of Land Management Nevada Threatened and Endangered Species" (Funding Opportunity Number L22AS00278). It is a discretionary funding opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior through BLM, and awards are made through a cooperative agreement, which generally means BLM expects to be substantially involved in the project during implementation rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The work supported falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.246. As the title indicates, the overall purpose is to support efforts connected to threatened and endangered species in Nevada on lands managed by BLM, which typically includes conservation, monitoring, habitat-related work, and other actions that help meet legal and management responsibilities for sensitive species.
Eligibility is limited to public and nonprofit-type entities rather than private commercial applicants. The NOFO explicitly states that individuals and for-profit organizations cannot apply. Eligible applicant types include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; and nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (in both cases, other than institutions of higher education). In practical terms, this means the program is geared toward governmental partners, tribes and tribal entities, schools and universities, and nonprofit organizations with a conservation, research, education, or stewardship mission.
A key restriction in the announcement is about internships and crew hiring under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. This NOFO does not support entities hiring interns or crews under that Act. The notice explains that the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993 (16 USC Chapter 37, Subchapter II, Public Lands Corps) is the only legislative authority that allows BLM to "hire" interns under that specific authority, and because this funding opportunity is not issued under that authority, applicants should not propose projects that rely on Public Lands Corps internship or crew arrangements. If an organization is a qualified youth conservation corps or is trying to build a project around youth crews or internships, the NOFO directs those applicants to a different BLM opportunity instead: NOFO 15.243, "BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands," which is designed for that kind of work.
The funding details provided indicate an award ceiling of $340,000. The original closing date for applications was May 27, 2022, and the opportunity record shows a creation date of March 21, 2022. The listing notes "ExpectedAwards:" but does not provide a number in the source text you shared, so the exact anticipated count of awards is not specified here. Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a cooperative, partner-driven vehicle for conservation and management activities that support Nevada threatened and endangered species priorities on BLM-managed lands, with clear applicant eligibility limits and a clear boundary against using this particular funding stream for Public Lands Corps-style intern or crew hiring.Apply for L22AS00278
