Opportunity Information: Apply for L22AS00125
The Bureau of Land Management Headquarters (HQ) Threatened and Endangered Species grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L22AS00125) is a discretionary Department of the Interior funding program that supports work related to natural resources, specifically threatened and endangered species activities connected to BLM-managed lands and priorities. Awards are made as cooperative agreements, which generally means the BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination on methods, deliverables, data standards, or project implementation), rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant.
A wide range of public and nonprofit entities are eligible to apply. 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; 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 (so long as they are not institutions of higher education when applying under those nonprofit categories). The opportunity explicitly excludes individuals and for-profit organizations, meaning private companies and sole applicants cannot receive awards under this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO).
The NOFO also includes a clear restriction related to youth hiring and internship programs. It does not support organizations that want to hire interns or crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. The notice points out 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 specific authority, and this threatened and endangered species NOFO is not the mechanism for those projects. As a result, eligible Youth Conservation Corps and similar youth-focused applicants are directed to a different funding opportunity for that kind of work: NOFO 15.243, titled "BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands." In practical terms, this means proposals under L22AS00125 should focus on threatened and endangered species conservation outcomes rather than being structured primarily as youth crew or internship employment programs.
Key administrative details include a posted creation date of January 27, 2022, and an original closing date of May 30, 2022. The award ceiling listed is $250,000, indicating the maximum anticipated federal funding per award under this opportunity. The CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number associated with the program is 15.246, which corresponds to BLM threatened and endangered species work. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, aligning the program with conservation, species recovery, habitat protection, monitoring, and related scientific or management efforts, depending on BLM’s specific priorities and project needs at the time of solicitation.
Overall, the opportunity is best suited to governmental entities, tribes, educational institutions, and nonprofits that can partner with BLM on concrete threatened and endangered species conservation projects, can operate under a cooperative agreement framework with active federal involvement, and are not seeking to fund intern or crew hiring under the Public Lands Corps pathway (which must be pursued through the separate BLM youth conservation NOFO).Apply for L22AS00125
