Opportunity Information: Apply for L18AS00046
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "BLM NV 2018 Youth Opportunities to Work on Conservation Projects on Nevada Public Lands" (Funding Opportunity Number L18AS00046). Released on May 30, 2018, with an original application deadline of July 7, 2018, the opportunity is focused on natural resource work on public lands in Nevada and is intended to be carried out through cooperative agreements, meaning BLM expects to have substantial involvement in planning, coordination, oversight, or technical support as the projects are implemented.
At its core, the program is designed to partner with qualified Youth Conservation Corps-style organizations and participants to place young people (generally ages 16 to 30) into hands-on conservation and public lands projects across Nevada. The target participant groups explicitly include youth from local and surrounding communities, veterans, tribal youth, and other young adults within the age range. The intent is workforce-oriented and service-oriented at the same time: participants gain paid, practical experience and exposure to land-management careers, while BLM advances on-the-ground work that supports the protection, restoration, and responsible public use of federal lands.
The work supported under this opportunity is framed around "multiple-use" conservation projects, reflecting BLMs land-management mission to balance conservation with uses such as recreation, grazing, and other compatible activities. While the notice is broad rather than tied to a single project type, the general emphasis is on completing tangible field projects that help protect resources and promote stewardship on Nevada public lands. In practice, projects under similar BLM youth initiatives often involve things like habitat improvement, invasive species removal, restoration of disturbed areas, trail and recreation site maintenance, fencing or signage to protect sensitive areas, cultural or natural resource support activities, and other conservation-related tasks that can be completed by organized crews under appropriate supervision and safety standards.
Funding details indicate an award ceiling of $350,000, with an expectation of up to 13 awards. This suggests BLM anticipated making multiple cooperative agreements, likely distributed across districts or project locations in Nevada, rather than funding a single large statewide effort only. The opportunity is listed under CFDA number 15.243, which aligns with BLM assistance programs for natural resources and related public land stewardship efforts.
Eligibility is described as "Others" with additional clarification referenced in the full eligibility text, but the description makes clear that partners are expected to be qualified organizations capable of recruiting, managing, training, and supervising Youth Conservation Corps participants (and related eligible youth corps participants), including the ability to engage the specific populations named (youth, veterans, tribal youth, and others ages 16-30). Overall, the opportunity is a partnership vehicle to expand conservation capacity on Nevada public lands while providing structured work experiences that build skills, employability, and long-term interest in public lands stewardship.Apply for L18AS00046
