Opportunity Information: Apply for L21AS00267
The Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Oregon/Washington Rangeland Resource Management opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L21AS00267) is a discretionary federal funding program offered through a cooperative agreement. It is listed under CFDA 15.237 and falls within the Natural Resources funding activity category. The focus, as indicated by the title and program framing, is rangeland resource management work connected to BLM lands and priorities in Oregon and Washington, with BLM expecting to be meaningfully involved in the project through the cooperative agreement structure (which typically implies substantial federal involvement and coordination during implementation, rather than a hands-off grant).
Eligibility is limited to public and nonprofit or educational entities, not private businesses or individuals. Specifically, 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; tribal organizations that are not federally recognized governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; and nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories). Individuals and for-profit organizations are explicitly ineligible, meaning proposals from private companies or sole applicants cannot be considered under this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO).
A key restriction in this NOFO is that it does not support projects built around hiring interns or field crews. The notice explains that the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993 is the only legislative authority that allows BLM to "hire" interns, and because of that legal limitation, youth-focused staffing models must be routed through a different, specific funding opportunity. In practical terms, if an organization is a Youth Conservation Corps or is trying to structure the work primarily as intern or crew placements, BLM directs those applicants to pursue the separate program identified as NOFO 15.243, BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands, rather than submitting under this rangeland resource management NOFO.
In terms of funding scale and timing, the award ceiling is listed as $300,000. The opportunity record was created on February 3, 2021, and the original closing date was May 28, 2021. The listing includes a field for expected awards, but the number is not provided in the source data shown, so it is not possible to infer how many awards were planned based solely on this summary.
Overall, this opportunity is best suited for eligible government entities, tribes, nonprofits, and colleges or universities that can partner with BLM on rangeland management objectives in Oregon and Washington without relying on intern/crew hiring as the core project mechanism. Organizations that want to engage youth crews or internships should treat this as the wrong vehicle and instead look to the dedicated BLM youth conservation NOFO referenced in the description.Apply for L21AS00267
