Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NRCS LA MULTI 22 NOFO0001151
The Louisiana Conservation Delivery Technical Assistance grant opportunity is a USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) funding announcement for FY2022 designed to strengthen conservation delivery across the State of Louisiana through partner-led outreach and technical support. The program falls under Assistance Listing (CFDA) 10.902, Soil and Water Conservation (Conservation Technical Assistance/CTA), authorized by the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act (Public Law 74-76; 16 U.S.C. 590 a-f). In practical terms, NRCS is looking to collaborate with organizations that can help increase awareness, participation, and implementation of NRCS conservation programs and priorities in Louisiana by leveraging local relationships, communications capacity, and on-the-ground conservation expertise.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning NRCS expects an active partnership relationship rather than simply issuing a check for a standalone project. Projects can be proposed for a period of performance ranging from one to five years, and NRCS anticipated a total of up to about $700,000 available for multiple awards in FY2022, subject to Congressional appropriations at the time of award. The notice indicates an expected number of awards of around seven, reflecting an intent to spread support across multiple recipients that can collectively advance statewide conservation objectives.
Applicants must be able to provide support in Louisiana and may include a broad range of eligible entity types: state, county, and city/township governments; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; other tribal organizations; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3)); and for-profit organizations other than small businesses (as listed in the opportunity metadata). NRCS emphasizes that applications will be screened for completeness and compliance with the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NFO). Submissions that are incomplete or do not follow the NFO requirements may be removed from consideration, and the Louisiana State Conservationist retains discretion to fund, not fund, or partially fund proposals if NRCS goals can still be met with a reduced scope.
Funding levels are described with a federal share floor and ceiling: the minimum expected federal amount per agreement is $100,000, and the maximum federal amount per agreement is $700,000. These figures refer to the total federal share for the entire agreement period, not per year or per budget period. Applicants should plan proposals accordingly, aligning the project scope, staffing, outreach activities, and measurable deliverables to fit within those total funding bounds and the selected project duration.
The application process runs through Grants.gov, with a submission deadline of 11:59 pm Eastern Time on May 31, 2022. Technical help for Grants.gov issues is handled by Grants.gov Applicant Support (not NRCS program staff), while questions about the content of the NFO are directed to the federal awarding agency contact listed in the notice. NRCS notes that questions should be limited to clarifications tied to the NFO itself (for example, resolving discrepancies or confirming where a requirement appears) and that they will not advise on eligibility edge cases or comment on the competitiveness of a particular proposal. The agency projected an internal selection date of June 15, 2022, with awards expected to be executed by September 1, 2022, though both dates are estimates and could shift.
Finally, NRCS flags that this is federal financial assistance and encourages applicants, especially those newer to federal grants, to complete the free "Grants 101" training offered through the CFO.gov grants training site. That training covers the core compliance framework that typically governs federal assistance awards, including the major legal and regulatory environment, administrative requirements under Uniform Guidance, cost principles, and audit and risk management expectations. This is a useful signal that applicants should be prepared for standard federal grant management rules, documentation, and reporting practices throughout the project period.Apply for USDA NRCS LA MULTI 22 NOFO0001151
