Opportunity Information: Apply for L17AS00025
The grant opportunity titled "BLM Nevada City of North Las Vegas Multiple PTNA Acquisition Projects SNPLMA Round 16" (Funding Opportunity Number L17AS00025) was a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It was issued under the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act (SNPLMA), using funds from the SNPLMA Special Account to support a set of approved Round 16 projects. These projects fall within the Parks, Trails and Natural Areas (PTNA) category and are focused on expanding and improving public outdoor assets through acquisition and development efforts tied to parks, trail systems, and natural areas.
The core purpose of the opportunity was to implement PTNA projects that had already been approved for SNPLMA Round 16 funding. The work described centers on developing parks, trails, and natural areas located in Clark and Lincoln Counties, Nevada, with a particular emphasis on projects associated with the City of North Las Vegas. In practical terms, this kind of PTNA funding is aimed at increasing public access to outdoor recreation, protecting or enhancing open space and natural lands, and supporting community-scale infrastructure that improves quality of life and outdoor connectivity in Southern Nevada.
Funding was to be provided through a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal agency would typically expect to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply issuing funds. Cooperative agreements are commonly used when the agency anticipates collaboration, coordination, or ongoing participation in aspects such as project planning, compliance requirements, milestone review, or performance oversight. The funding activity category for this opportunity was Natural Resources, and it was listed under CFDA number 15.235, which corresponds to BLM assistance programs.
Eligibility was limited to city or township governments, aligning with the local-government nature of park, trail, and land acquisition projects. The opportunity was created on February 10, 2017, and had an original closing date of February 24, 2017, indicating a short application window. The opportunity anticipated making about three awards, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $4,025,000. While the ceiling reflects the upper limit for a single award under this announcement, the mention of multiple expected awards suggests the total funding would likely be distributed across several related projects rather than concentrated into one.
The announcement also notes an important authorization milestone: the Secretary of the Interior approved the estimated expenditures from the SNPLMA Special Account on December 6, 2016. That approval is significant because SNPLMA projects are tied to specific expenditure authorizations, and the statement signals that the Round 16 PTNA projects referenced in the opportunity had cleared a key federal approval step prior to the funding notice being released. Overall, the opportunity was designed to move approved Southern Nevada PTNA projects into implementation, supporting land acquisition and on-the-ground development that expands recreation and conservation-oriented public spaces in the region.Apply for L17AS00025
