Opportunity Information: Apply for L22AS00372
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Montana Dakotas Recreation and Visitor Services grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L22AS00372) is a discretionary funding program offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior through BLM. It is intended to support work connected to natural resource-related recreation and visitor services within the BLM Montana/Dakotas area, and it will be awarded using a cooperative agreement. A cooperative agreement generally means BLM expects to be substantially involved in the project beyond simply providing funding, such as coordinating activities, providing technical input, or working closely with the recipient during implementation.
Eligibility is limited to public-sector and nonprofit/education-based 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 tribal governments; other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; and nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education for the nonprofit category where specified). Individuals and for-profit organizations are explicitly not eligible to apply under this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), which is an important restriction for any partnership planning or applicant selection.
A key limitation in this NOFO is that it does not support projects that involve hiring interns or crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. BLM 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 framework, and this NOFO is not the vehicle for those activities. As a result, youth corps-style internship and crew proposals are directed elsewhere: eligible Youth Conservation Corps organizations are instructed to apply under a different program, identified as NOFO 15.243, titled BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands. In practical terms, this means applicants should design projects around recreation and visitor service outcomes without building the budget and deliverables around PLC intern/crew hiring mechanisms.
The opportunity is categorized under the Natural Resources funding activity area and is associated with CFDA number 15.225. The posted award ceiling is $30,000, indicating relatively small project-scale funding. The original application closing date was July 25, 2022, and the opportunity record shows a creation date of May 26, 2022. While the listing indicates "Expected Awards:" without a number provided, the low ceiling suggests BLM anticipated funding a limited set of targeted projects rather than large multi-year programs. Overall, this NOFO is best understood as a modest, partnership-oriented funding option for eligible governmental, tribal, nonprofit, and educational entities to carry out recreation and visitor service-related work with BLM Montana/Dakotas, while explicitly excluding individual/for-profit applicants and excluding PLC intern/crew hiring activities.Apply for L22AS00372
