Opportunity Information: Apply for A19AC00056
The White Earth Fire Management Cooperative Agreement (Funding Opportunity Number A19AC00056) is a Bureau of Indian Affairs funding action under the U.S. Department of the Interior focused on natural resources, specifically wildland fire management on Tribal lands. The opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the agency expects to have substantial involvement in the work alongside the recipient rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The stated purpose is to support wildland fire management activities on Tribal lands through a formal agreement between the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the White Earth Band of Chippewa Indians.
This posting is explicitly labeled "Notice of Award Only," meaning it is not an open, competitive funding opportunity. No applications or proposals are being accepted, and the notice is published primarily to document that an award is being made. The eligible applicant category listed is federally recognized Native American tribal governments, but in practice the notice indicates a specific intended partner: the White Earth Band of Chippewa Indians. The opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $330,000.
Administratively, the opportunity was created on September 24, 2019, with an original closing date of October 24, 2019, but the closing date functions more as a standard listing field than an invitation to apply, since the notice instructs the public not to submit proposals. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.035, reflecting its alignment with federal assistance cataloging for relevant Bureau of Indian Affairs activities. In short, this is a pre-arranged cooperative agreement announcement intended to fund and carry out wildfire-related management and support work on the White Earth Tribe's lands, rather than a solicitation seeking new applicants.Apply for A19AC00056
