Opportunity Summary:
The Shooting Sports Respected Access Campaign is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM), U.S. Department of the Interior funding opportunity designed to protect and preserve continued public access to public lands where shooting sports and related recreation occur. The central goal is to maintain and enhance that access by improving recreationists' behavior through a coordinated campaign that encourages responsible use. By promoting better practices, the program aims to reduce incidents that can lead to land closures or restrictions, especially situations involving property damage, harm to natural resources, unsafe shooting behavior, and conflicts between different types of visitors using the same areas.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, which typically means the agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out (for example, collaborating on messaging, deliverables, or coordination with land managers). The funding activity category is listed under disaster prevention and relief, reflecting an emphasis on preventing damaging incidents and reducing risk before they escalate into larger public safety or resource protection problems.
The announcement anticipated a single award, with funding ranging from a floor of $20,000 to a ceiling of $100,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute a specific amount of non-federal funds to be eligible. The assistance listing is associated with CFDA 15.225, Recreation Resource Management, which generally supports projects that conserve resources and improve recreation management on public lands.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education.
