Opportunity Information: Apply for L22AS00177
The Bureau of Land Management Headquarters (HQ) Rangeland Resource Management grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L22AS00177) is a discretionary federal funding program run by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management. It is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means awardees should expect substantial involvement from BLM staff during project planning and implementation, rather than operating completely independently. The program is categorized under Natural Resources and is associated with CFDA number 15.237. The intent, based on the title and classification, is to support work connected to rangeland resource management, which generally includes activities that help sustain, restore, monitor, or improve rangeland ecosystems and the resources and uses tied to them.
Eligibility is limited to public and nonprofit-oriented applicants rather than private commercial entities. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city/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; other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; and nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in the nonprofit category). Individuals and for-profit organizations are explicitly ineligible to apply, which is an important screening rule for prospective applicants and partners.
A key restriction in the notice is that this funding opportunity does not support projects that involve entities hiring interns or crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. The notice clarifies that the Public Lands Corps Act (16 USC, Chapter 37, Subchapter II) is the only legislative authority that allows BLM to "hire" interns under that framework, and that this specific NOFO is not the vehicle for such intern/crew hiring arrangements. As a result, organizations seeking to propose youth corps or intern-style project staffing under the Public Lands Corps structure are directed to a different funding opportunity: NOFO 15.243, titled BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands. In practical terms, applicants to this rangeland management opportunity should design proposals that do not rely on Public Lands Corps intern hiring authorities and should avoid framing project labor needs as PLC intern/crew placements under this NOFO.
In terms of funding scale and timing, the listed award ceiling is $100,000. The opportunity record shows a creation date of January 26, 2022, with an original closing date of March 28, 2022. The number of expected awards is not specified in the provided data, so applicants would typically need to consult the full notice text for details on how many projects BLM anticipated funding, how funds might be distributed, and whether awards might be made across multiple states or program areas.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as targeted support for rangeland resource management work carried out by governmental entities, eligible tribal governments and organizations, educational institutions, and nonprofits, with a clear boundary that it is not intended to fund Public Lands Corps intern/crew hiring. Applicants that fit the eligibility categories and can propose rangeland-focused projects that align with BLM priorities, while complying with the staffing restriction noted above, would be the appropriate audience for this cooperative agreement program.Apply for L22AS00177
