The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has unveiled a new funding opportunity titled “FY24 IIJA/IRA Bureau of Land Management Eastern States (ES) Wildlife Program,” aimed at bolstering wildlife resource management. With a total program funding of $170,000 and an award ceiling matching the funding amount, this discretionary grant is a significant opportunity for a wide range of applicants, including state and local governments, educational institutions, and recognized tribal entities. Announced on November 7, 2023, this cooperative agreement under CFDA number 15.247 is targeted at enhancing natural resource conservation and management efforts across the Eastern States. The application window remains open until February 6, 2024, and submissions must be finalized by 5:00 p.m. ET on the due date without exceptions for extension unless extraordinary circumstances arise.

Eligibility for the grants is notably diverse, encompassing state governments, various educational institutions, non-profits with or without 501(c)(3) status, as well as Native American tribal organizations, among others. However, individuals and for-profit entities are not eligible to participate. The BLM has made it clear that this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) does not support entities hiring interns or crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993, directing those interested in such initiatives to a different NOFO. Furthermore, the BLM advises that Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESUs) partners may apply if their proposals align with the CESU’s objectives and they may benefit from a capped indirect cost rate. For those needing assistance with the application process, Irene Sattler at the BLM has been designated as the contact person, available via email for support.

Additional Information on Eligibility: Individuals and For-Profit Organizations are ineligible to apply for awards under this NOFO.This program NOFO does not support entities hiring interns or crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. 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 this authority. Therefore, eligible Youth Conservation Corps may only apply for projects developed under NOFO 15.243 – BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands. CESUs are partnerships with a purpose to promote, conduct, and provide research, studies, assessments, monitoring, technical assistance, and educational services. If a cooperative agreement is awarded to a CESU partner under a formally negotiated Master CESU agreement which is consistent with the CESU purpose, indirect costs are limited to a rate of no-more-than 17.5 percent of the indirect cost base recognized in the partner’s Federal Agency-approved Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (NICRA). Applicant’s should specify if their proposal furthers the purpose of the CESU program, and if so which CESU Network should be considered as host.
