About this opportunity

The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), through its Native American Affairs: Technical Assistance to Tribes for Fiscal Year 2025 program, is seeking proposals from federally recognized Indian Tribes in the 17 Western States for financial and technical assistance to develop, manage, and protect their water and related resources. The program objectives align with the Biden-Harris Administration's priorities on tackling the climate crisis and advancing racial equity. Eligible applicants must submit proposals by 4:00 pm MST on February 27, 2025, which will be evaluated based on project need, benefits, implementation, and alignment with administration priorities. Reclamation will conduct a multi-step review process to select recipients.

Up to $7 million in total funding is available, with a maximum award of $1 million per proposal. The program is authorized under the Reclamation Act of 1902 and is part of Reclamation's Native American Affairs Technical Assistance Program (CFDA 15.519). Eligible projects may include water resource assessments, management plans, data collection, infrastructure improvements, and other activities to benefit tribal water resources.
