Opportunity Information: Apply for L21AS00437
The Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Wild Horse and Burro Resource Management funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L21AS00437) is a discretionary grant competition offered through a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.229, focused on natural resource activities connected to the management of wild horses and burros on public lands. Because it is structured as a cooperative agreement, applicants should expect substantial involvement by BLM in carrying out the project, such as collaboration on planning, coordination, technical direction, or oversight tied to achieving shared resource management outcomes.
Eligibility is broad across public and nonprofit sectors, including state, county, and local 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 and other eligible tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); and individuals. A key restriction is that for-profit organizations are explicitly ineligible to apply under this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), so private businesses cannot serve as the applicant/recipient for awards made through this specific program announcement.
The NOFO also draws a firm line around workforce and youth crew arrangements. It does not support projects where entities propose to hire interns or crews under this program. The announcement explains that 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. As a result, youth-focused conservation corps proposals are not meant to be submitted under this wild horse and burro resource management NOFO. Instead, eligible Youth Conservation Corps organizations are directed to apply only under the separate funding opportunity identified as NOFO 15.243, titled BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands, which is the appropriate pathway for projects centered on engaging youth interns or crews.
In terms of funding parameters and timing, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $100,000 and an original closing date of May 28, 2021, with a creation date of April 13, 2021. While the opportunity summary does not specify the exact number of awards expected, the ceiling provides a practical upper boundary for proposal budgeting and scope. Overall, this NOFO is best understood as a resource management-focused cooperative agreement opportunity for eligible public, tribal, nonprofit, academic, and individual applicants seeking to support BLM work related to wild horse and burro management, while excluding for-profit applicants and steering youth internship/crew concepts to the separate Public Lands Corps-linked funding announcement.Apply for L21AS00437
