Opportunity Information: Apply for L22AS00101
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Oregon/Washington Fuels Management and Community Fire Assistance opportunity is a discretionary federal funding program from the U.S. Department of the Interior designed to support work that reduces wildfire risk and improves community preparedness in Oregon and Washington. It is offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the BLM expects to be substantially involved during the project period (for example, coordinating technical input, aligning work with BLM priorities, or participating in planning and oversight), rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal interaction. The program falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA/Assistance Listing 15.228.
Eligibility is limited to public and nonprofit entities and certain education and tribal organizations. 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 (as long as they are not institutions of higher education when applying under the nonprofit categories). Individuals and for-profit organizations are explicitly ineligible, so proposals must come from an eligible governmental, educational, tribal, housing authority, or nonprofit applicant.
A key restriction in the notice is that this specific NOFO does not support applicants who plan to hire interns or crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. The notice emphasizes 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 framework, and that youth or conservation corps-style projects tied to that authority must be pursued through a different funding opportunity. As stated, eligible Youth Conservation Corps applicants should instead look to NOFO 15.243, titled BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands, for projects that depend on that intern/crew hiring model. In practical terms, applicants to this fuels management and community fire assistance opportunity should avoid building proposals around Public Lands Corps intern or crew hiring and should design projects with staffing and implementation approaches that comply with the restriction.
The funding opportunity number is L22AS00101. The original closing date listed for applications was April 26, 2022, and the opportunity was created on January 21, 2022. The listed award ceiling is up to $1,000,000 per award. The posting indicates expected awards but does not provide a specific number in the provided source text, so the exact anticipated count of awards is not clear from the information given.
Overall, the opportunity is aimed at supporting fuels management and community fire assistance efforts in the BLM Oregon/Washington area, with a relatively high per-award cap and a cooperative agreement structure, while clearly narrowing who can apply and what kinds of workforce models (specifically Public Lands Corps intern/crew hiring) can be supported under this particular notice.Apply for L22AS00101
