Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM NM Jicarilla Apache Oil and Gas Inspection and Enforcement" (Funding Opportunity Number BLM NM NOI 09 1620) is a discretionary Department of the Interior program administered through the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is structured as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.222, which covers cooperative inspection agreements with states and tribes. The central intent is to formalize and strengthen day-to-day coordination between BLM and the Jicarilla Apache Nation around oil and gas inspection activities on Jicarilla Apache leases, with a practical focus on improving how inspections are planned, scheduled, carried out, and communicated.
The purpose of the agreement is to establish clear procedures for cooperation and coordination in planning and programming oil and gas inspections. In plain terms, the funding supports joint or closely coordinated regulatory work so that inspections happen more often, are conducted consistently under the applicable rules, and are followed by timely information sharing between the two governments. The emphasis on "uniform application of regulation" signals that the work is meant to reduce gaps or inconsistencies in how inspection and enforcement expectations are applied across lease operations, while "timely communications" points to improving the speed and reliability of reporting, follow-up, and regulatory coordination tied to inspection outcomes.
Eligibility for this opportunity is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, and the announcement states that the award will be made specifically to the Jicarilla Apache Agency, meaning it is effectively a targeted opportunity rather than an open competition among multiple tribal applicants. The expected number of awards is one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to provide a defined non-federal match as a condition of receiving the award.
Funding levels in the posting indicate an estimated total program funding amount of $1,600,000, while the single award amount is fixed at $320,000, with both the award ceiling and award floor listed as $320,000. This suggests a set award amount for the cooperative agreement as posted, rather than a range that depends on applicant budgets. The activity category is listed as "Other," with the clarification that the specific focus is oil and gas inspection and enforcement.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on September 9, 2009, with an original and current closing date of September 15, 2009, and an archive date of October 10, 2009.
