Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, offered a discretionary funding opportunity titled "BLM-Idaho Shoshone-Paiute Tribes Youth Project - Development and Collection of Native Plant Material" (Funding Opportunity Number L16AS00273). The focus of the project is natural resources work, specifically supporting activities that involve developing and collecting native plant materials on the Duck Valley Indian Reservation. The stated purpose is to continue an existing partnership with the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes by engaging tribal youth and young adults in hands-on efforts tied to native plants, which can include building practical skills, supporting stewardship priorities, and strengthening local capacity for native plant-related work.
Funding was made available through a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that BLM expects to play an active role during the project rather than simply providing funding and stepping back. The opportunity listed an award ceiling of $100,000 and anticipated making one award. Eligibility was limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, aligning the program directly with tribal leadership and community-driven implementation.
Key administrative details included a creation date of August 19, 2016, and an original closing date of September 2, 2016, reflecting a short application window. The opportunity was associated with CFDA number 15.243, a Bureau of Land Management assistance listing historically tied to BLM natural resource management and related conservation activities. Overall, the grant was structured to support a single, targeted partnership project in Idaho that connects youth development with on-the-ground native plant material development and collection work on the Duck Valley Indian Reservation.
