Opportunity Summary:
The BLM NM Navajo Nation Oil and Gas Inspection and Enforcement opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM NM NOI 09 1619) is a Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management cooperative agreement intended to strengthen how oil and gas activities on Navajo Nation leases are inspected and enforced. The central aim is to set clear, workable procedures that help the BLM and the Navajo Nation coordinate more closely when planning inspection schedules, setting priorities, sharing information, and carrying out compliance and enforcement responsibilities. In practical terms, the opportunity is focused on increasing the frequency of inspections, ensuring regulations are applied consistently across covered operations, and improving the speed and reliability of communication between the two governments so that issues are identified and addressed in a timely way.
This funding is categorized as discretionary and uses a Cooperative Agreement instrument, which generally indicates the federal agency expects to remain substantially involved in the project rather than simply issuing a pass-through grant. The activity category is listed as "Other," with the explanation specifying Oil and Gas Inspections and Enforcement. The program is associated with CFDA 15.222, Cooperative Inspection Agreements with States and Tribes, which is geared toward supporting inspection and regulatory partnerships that help ensure oil and gas operations comply with applicable federal and tribal requirements.
The opportunity is structured as a single intended award, with Expected Awards listed as 1. It designates only one eligible applicant: federally recognized Native American tribal governments, and the notice explicitly states that the Navajo Nation is the intended recipient. That language indicates this was not a broadly competitive solicitation but rather a targeted Notice of Intent identifying the planned award recipient for this cooperative inspection arrangement.
Funding levels are clearly defined. The Estimated Total Funding amount is $2,400,000, while the Award Ceiling and Award Floor are both $480,000, meaning the anticipated award size is fixed at $480,000 per award action. No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, so the recipient would not be required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of the award under this announcement.
Key dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on Aug 29, 2009, with an original and current closing date of Sep 11, 2009, and an archive date of Sep 30, 2009. The relatively short window between posting and closing is consistent with a notice designating an intended recipient rather than an open competition.
