Synopsis

The National Conservation Lands programs financially support studies aimed at increasing our understanding of the resources present on BLM lands, the values these areas protect, and the effectiveness of BLM’s resource management decisions. The program seeks to develop and maintain strong partnerships with State, local, university, tribal, and non-profit stakeholders in shared conservation stewardship by engaging partners in conducting management-focused studies on the National Conservation Lands. Results from these studies on National Conservation Lands will inform management strategies throughout BLM as well as other land management entities. The Management Studies Support Program for National Conservation Lands will use partnerships with University, State, local, tribal, and non-profit entities to gather the best available data and synthesize information to support BLM’s land management decision processes, citizen science, and tribal co-stewardship initiatives.

Who can apply

Individuals and For-Profit Organizations are ineligible to apply for awards under this NOFO.This program NOFO does not support entities hiring interns or crews under the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993. The Public Lands Corps Act of 1993, 16 USC, Chapter 37, Subchapter II-Public Lands Corps, is the only legislative authority that allows BLM to "hire" interns under this authority. Therefore, eligible Youth Conservation Corps may only apply for projects developed under NOFO 15.243 – BLM Youth Conservation Opportunities on Public Lands.CESUs are partnerships with a purpose to promote, conduct, and provide research, studies, assessments, monitoring, technical assistance, and educational services. If a cooperative agreement is awarded to a CESU partner under a formally negotiated Master CESU agreement which is consistent with the CESU purpose, indirect costs are limited to a rate of no-more-than 17.5 percent of the indirect cost base recognized in the partner's Federal Agency-approved Negotiated Indirect Cost Rate Agreement (NICRA). Applicant’s should specify if their proposal furthers the purpose of the CESU program, and if so which CESU Network should be considered as host.
