Opportunity Information: Apply for L19AS00094
The ORWA Rangeland Resource Management Master Funding Opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L19AS00094) is a discretionary federal grant program administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), under the BLM Rangeland Management Program. It is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning projects are typically carried out with substantial involvement from BLM staff in planning, coordination, oversight, and implementation rather than operating as a hands-off pass-through grant. The opportunity is tied to CFDA 15.237 and focuses on practical, on-the-ground rangeland and soil resource work across public lands managed by BLM.
The program is built around the reality that BLM administers grazing on more than 155 million acres of public land, and that grazing management is closely connected to broader rangeland health. Proposed projects are meant to support rangeland resource management activities such as inventorying rangeland conditions, controlling and managing noxious weeds and invasive species, improving rangelands through grazing management, conducting vegetation restoration treatments, and developing or improving grazing management structures. The scope also explicitly includes soil resource management work, with an emphasis on coordinating with land managers and other stakeholders to complete priority soil surveys, develop or refine ecological site descriptions, and implement projects that improve soil stability and reduce erosion. In practice, this frames the opportunity around both assessment products (like surveys and site descriptions) and implementation actions (like restoration and infrastructure that improves rangeland function).
A major theme in the opportunity is that good rangeland and soil management supports many other uses and authorizations on public lands. The description highlights that appropriate management helps enable and inform activities including energy development, recovery work for endangered and other special status species, grazing of domestic livestock, recreation, forest management, hazardous fuels reduction, and post-fire rehabilitation. In other words, while the funding is rooted in rangeland management, it is also intended to strengthen land health and resilience in ways that reduce conflict among uses and improve outcomes across multiple BLM programs, especially where soils, vegetation, and erosion risk are limiting factors.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity is broadly open to many entity types, subject to any additional eligibility notes that may appear in the full announcement. The funding window opened June 20, 2019 and closed August 20, 2019, with two submission rounds: Round One applications due July 20, 2019 and Round Two applications due August 20, 2019. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) was $300,000, and BLM anticipated making about six awards. Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a competitively awarded cooperative agreement program supporting rangeland and soil health projects and planning products that directly improve public-land rangelands while also reinforcing related priorities like invasive species control, fuels and fire recovery work, wildlife and special status species needs, and sustainable multiple-use management.Apply for L19AS00094
