Opportunity Information: Apply for L17AS00231
This notice is a public announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), stating its intent to make a single cooperative agreement award to the Wyoming State Forestry Division for a project called the "BLM-WY, Wyoming Good Neighbor Agreement." It is not an open grant competition and not a request for applications. Instead, it is issued to satisfy federal public-notice requirements under the Department of the Interior Department Manual (505 DM 2.12 and 2.14), which govern when agencies must publicly post their intention to make a non-competitive award.
The planned award instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates that BLM expects substantial involvement in the project work (for example, joint planning, coordination, oversight, or technical collaboration) rather than simply issuing funds with minimal federal participation. The funding opportunity is categorized as discretionary and falls under the natural resources activity area. The associated CFDA (assistance listing) number is 15.233, tying it to BLM assistance for related natural resource objectives.
The purpose of the agreement is to carry out authorized restoration services under the Good Neighbor Authority (GNA). The notice highlights several types of work that may be supported, including treatment of insect- and disease-infected trees, hazardous fuels reduction to lower wildfire risk, and other actions intended to restore or improve the health of forests, rangelands, and watersheds. It also specifically includes improvements benefiting fish and wildlife habitat, signaling that the restoration scope is broader than timber or fuels work alone and can include ecological outcomes across multiple resource values.
Legally, the work is framed under the Good Neighbor Authority as established and expanded through federal legislation, including the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2014 (Public Law 113-76) and the Agricultural Act of 2014 (Public Law 113-79), referenced in the notice alongside 16 USC 2113a. In practical terms, GNA is designed to let federal agencies partner with states to perform certain forest, rangeland, and watershed restoration activities across jurisdictional boundaries, using the state as a key implementation partner to increase pace and scale of restoration where it is needed.
Key administrative details in the notice include the funding opportunity number (L17AS00231), the anticipated maximum funding amount (award ceiling) of $400,000, and an expectation of one award. While the listing shows eligible applicant categories such as state governments, county governments, and special district governments, this particular posting is explicitly a notice of intent to award to the Wyoming State Forestry Division, meaning other entities are not being solicited to apply through this announcement. The notice was created on September 8, 2017, with an original closing date of September 10, 2017, which functions more as an administrative posting window than a true application deadline since the award is not competitive through this notice.Apply for L17AS00231
