Opportunity Information: Apply for BIA 18 0001
The Program to Support Tribal Resilience and Ocean and Coastal Management and Planning is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), through the Office of Trust Services and its Tribal Resilience Program. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning funded projects are expected to involve an ongoing relationship with the federal program staff rather than a simple pass-through award. The overall purpose is to help tribes strengthen resilience in the face of extreme events and long-term environmental changes, with a specific emphasis on ocean and coastal management and planning needs.
The opportunity is aimed at supporting work that helps tribes anticipate, prepare for, and respond to harmful environmental trends and extreme events that can affect treaty and trust resources, local and regional economies, critical infrastructure, and community health and safety. In practical terms, this includes planning and management efforts that improve readiness for impacts such as coastal storms, sea level rise, erosion, flooding, changing ocean conditions, and other hazards that threaten coastal and marine environments and the communities that depend on them. A core feature of the solicitation is the expectation that projects incorporate sound science and technical information, and that they may also incorporate Traditional Knowledge as part of a more complete approach to understanding risk and designing appropriate strategies.
Eligibility is specifically directed to tribal not-for-profit organizations and tribal non-governmental organizations and associations (the announcement lists eligibility broadly as "Others," with clarification provided in the full notice). The funding activity category is Environment, and the program is associated with CFDA number 15.156. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $150,000, and the agency anticipated making around 20 awards under this competition, indicating a relatively competitive process with multiple projects funded.
Applications were required to be submitted by 5:00 PM Eastern Standard Time on July 12, 2018, with the solicitation emphasizing that proposals had to be received by that deadline. The notice directs applicants to consult the full announcement in the "Related Documents" section for complete submission instructions, required forms, and detailed proposal guidelines. Proposals were to be evaluated competitively, and selections would be made using the review criteria described in the solicitation (referenced as being in Section E, which covers categories of funding, review criteria, and evaluation). For applicants needing help interpreting the requirements or developing their submissions, the announcement indicates that BIA Tribal Resilience Program staff could be contacted for assistance, with contact instructions provided in the full notice.Apply for BIA 18 0001
