Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NRCS LA 19 0001

The NRCS-LA State Office Technical Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number USDA NRCS LA 19 0001) is a Louisiana-focused competitive funding announcement from the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Its purpose is to bring in partner organizations that can help NRCS strengthen and expand conservation delivery across the state. In practical terms, NRCS is looking to collaborate with organizations already involved in conservation programs and services in Louisiana so that shared capacity, staffing, expertise, and on-the-ground support can accelerate progress on NRCS conservation objectives and priorities described in the full notice.

Funding is offered on a discretionary basis, primarily through cooperative agreements (and potentially other instruments as specified by NRCS). For FY2019, NRCS anticipated up to approximately $5,000,000 total available under this announcement, with awards made to multiple recipients and an expected number of awards around 25. The maximum (ceiling) amount for an individual award is listed as $1,100,000, and all awards depend on funds being appropriated by Congress at the time the awards are made. Projects may be proposed as single-year or multi-year efforts, with a period of performance ranging from one to five years, allowing applicants to propose anything from short-term technical assistance surges to longer, sustained delivery partnerships.

Eligible applicants include a wide range of governmental and non-governmental entities that can carry out conservation-related technical assistance in Louisiana. This includes state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The notice also indicates that additional types of applicants may be eligible as clarified in the announcement’s additional eligibility information. The program is associated with multiple CFDA numbers (10.069, 10.072, 10.902, 10.912, 10.924, 10.931), reflecting NRCS’s broader conservation and technical assistance mission areas.

The application process is explicitly compliance-driven. NRCS will screen submissions for completeness and adherence to the notice requirements, and any application that is incomplete or noncompliant will be removed from consideration, with the applicant notified of the elimination. The Louisiana State Conservationist also retains broad discretion in final selections, including the option to fund none of the applications, fund only some, or partially fund a proposal if NRCS believes the core objectives can still be met with a reduced scope. This means proposals should be built around clear, achievable deliverables that directly support NRCS conservation priorities in Louisiana, with a scope and budget that can stand up to scrutiny and, if needed, be reasonably scaled.

The deadline for submission is firm: applications had to be received by NRCS no later than 4:00 p.m. CST on Friday, May 10, 2019. The opportunity was created on March 13, 2019, and is administered by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. Overall, this grant is best understood as a partnership-driven technical assistance funding stream intended to expand NRCS’s capacity to deliver conservation outcomes statewide by leveraging external partners that can provide staffing, expertise, education, planning support, and other implementation assistance aligned with NRCS priorities.
