Opportunity Summary:

The "Jicarilla Oil and Gas Inspections" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM NM NOI 09 1007) is a discretionary Department of the Interior grant offered through the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) as a cooperative agreement. Its purpose is to strengthen oil and gas inspection work on the Jicarilla Apache Nation by setting up a formal, joint framework between the BLM and the Jicarilla Apache Nation for how inspections are planned, carried out, documented, and communicated. The overall emphasis is on improving coordination so oil and gas leases on Jicarilla Apache Nation lands are inspected more often and in a more consistent way, with clearer and faster information sharing between the parties responsible for regulatory oversight.

At the core of the program is an intergovernmental partnership focused on lease compliance. The agreement is designed to define shared responsibilities and standard reporting procedures so that inspection activities are not duplicated, gaps are reduced, and both governments can rely on the same operational expectations. A major goal is uniform application of regulations across inspections, which typically means aligning field practices, inspection priorities, documentation standards, and follow-up processes so that operators are held to consistent requirements and compliance issues can be addressed promptly. Another key aim is timely communication, meaning that inspection findings, concerns, and enforcement-relevant information can move efficiently between the BLM and the Jicarilla Apache Nation to support their respective regulatory functions.

Funding for the opportunity is approximately $300,212 in estimated total funding, with a stated award floor of $300,000 and an award ceiling of $300,000, indicating the program anticipated a single award at roughly that level. The expected number of awards is one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means the selected applicant would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award. The funding activity is categorized as "Other," with the agency clarifying that the activity is oil and gas inspections on tribal land. The relevant CFDA listing is 15.222, Cooperative Inspection Agreements with States and Tribes, which reflects the cooperative, joint-implementation nature of the work rather than a simple pass-through grant.

Eligibility is limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, and the opportunity is clearly tailored to the Jicarilla Apache Nation context given the focus on "Jicarilla Apache leases" and inspection coverage on Jicarilla Apache Nation lands. The posting timeline shows it was posted May 20, 2009, created June 30, 2009, with an original closing date of June 15, 2009 and a current closing date of July 13, 2009. The opportunity was later archived on August 12, 2009. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for access issues was Janet Y. Huff (jhuff@blm.gov), Janet Huff.
