Opportunity Information: Apply for L22AS00267
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Eastern States Cultural and Paleontological Resources Management opportunity is a discretionary federal grant program from the U.S. Department of the Interior intended to support work related to cultural resources and paleontological resources on lands and programs managed by BLM in the Eastern States. The funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means BLM expects to have substantial involvement during the project (for example, coordinating on scope, methods, compliance requirements, deliverables, or review of products), rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant with minimal federal participation. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the assistance listing associated with the program is CFDA (now Assistance Listing) 15.224.
This opportunity is not open to individuals or for-profit organizations. Eligible applicants include a broad mix of public and nonprofit entities: 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; 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 when applying under the nonprofit category). In practical terms, the eligible pool is designed to include government partners, universities, tribes and tribal organizations, and nonprofit organizations that can carry out professional cultural resource or paleontological resource management activities in coordination with BLM.
The notice also includes an important restriction related to youth hiring and internship programs. This NOFO explicitly does not support applicants proposing to hire interns or field crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. The reason given is that the Public Lands Corps Act is the specific legislative authority BLM uses to "hire" interns under that framework, and projects using that authority must be competed and administered under a different funding announcement. As a result, Youth Conservation Corps or similar youth-focused organizations are directed to apply under NOFO 15.243, titled BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands, if the project concept involves youth crews, internships, or related Public Lands Corps arrangements. For this Cultural and Paleontological Resources Management NOFO, applicants should structure proposals around eligible technical assistance, stewardship, documentation, research, monitoring, assessment, inventory, curation-related support, interpretation planning, or similar professional resource management activities rather than youth internship hiring models.
Key administrative details in the source information include the funding opportunity number L22AS00267, an original closing date of May 6, 2022, and an award ceiling of $150,000. The instrument type is a cooperative agreement, so applicants should expect project planning and execution to involve coordination and oversight with BLM staff. While the number of expected awards is not specified in the provided data, the ceiling indicates the maximum anticipated federal share per award under this announcement.
Overall, this NOFO is best understood as a partnership-oriented funding opportunity for qualified public entities, tribes, universities, and nonprofits to help BLM manage and protect cultural heritage and paleontological resources in the Eastern States, with clear boundaries that exclude individual and for-profit applicants and that direct youth/intern crew concepts to a separate, purpose-built youth conservation funding program.Apply for L22AS00267
