Opportunity Information: Apply for L20AS00028
The BLM Idaho Threatened and Endangered Species grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L20AS00028) is a discretionary funding program from the Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management, offered through a cooperative agreement. Its focus is natural resources conservation, specifically helping conserve and recover federally listed threatened and endangered species, candidate species, and BLM-designated sensitive species on BLM-managed public lands in Idaho. The underlying idea is that BLM lands often contain some of the most important remaining habitat for rare plants and animals, and in some cases these species occur primarily, or even only, on lands managed by BLM. Because BLM manages habitat associated with more than 430 species listed under the Endangered Species Act and at least 15 candidate species, the program emphasizes actions that directly improve the outlook for these species and reduce future listing needs for other rare, non-listed species.
Projects supported under this opportunity can include a wide range of conservation work. This includes building better knowledge of species and habitat conditions through surveys, inventories, and monitoring; implementing protective or management measures that reduce threats; improving habitat quality through restoration or enhancement; and, where appropriate, supporting augmentation efforts to bolster vulnerable populations. The opportunity also highlights collaborative conservation, meaning BLM expects to work closely with partner organizations and align threatened and endangered species work with other BLM programs and external partners. The broader intent is to strengthen state and local partnerships, prioritize species and habitat monitoring efforts, and carry out restoration that improves habitat connectivity and resilience, which can be especially important when dealing with fragmented landscapes and changing environmental conditions.
A notable feature of the announcement is its emphasis on stewardship and public engagement alongside technical conservation outcomes. The program frames this work as part of a long-term conservation legacy and explicitly points to expanding opportunities for volunteer service and youth engagement on public lands. In practice, that suggests proposals that combine on-the-ground conservation results with partnership-building, education, or structured volunteer involvement may fit well with the opportunitys stated direction, as long as they remain tightly connected to measurable conservation needs for rare, sensitive, candidate, or federally listed species and their habitats.
Administratively, the opportunity was created on January 14, 2020, with an original closing date of May 31, 2020. The award ceiling is $50,000, and BLM anticipated making about three awards. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications in the full announcement. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.246, which corresponds to BLM assistance programs.Apply for L20AS00028
