Opportunity Information: Apply for L25AS00303
The FY25 Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Environmental Quality Protection grant supports efforts to inventory, clean up, and restore abandoned hardrock mine sites on public lands. These sites often pose risks to public health, wildlife, water, soil, and air due to past extractive activities. The program focuses on identifying hazardous mine features, preventing contamination, and managing safety risks using environmental assessments and various mitigation strategies, such as fencing, site closures, and habitat restoration.
Key goals include restoring watersheds, enhancing ecosystems, preserving cultural resources, and returning land to productive uses like recreation and wildlife habitat. The BLM seeks partnerships with state and local governments, Tribal nations, and environmental groups to fund and implement these projects. Cooperative agreements may be established to support restoration and environmental protection efforts.
Individuals and for-profit organizations are not eligible to apply. Internships and youth crew projects fall under separate funding opportunities and must align with specific legal authorities like the Public Lands Corps Act. For partners in the Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Units (CESU) network, indirect costs are capped at 17.5% if proposals align with CESU’s research and education mission.Apply for L25AS00303
