The Bureau of Land Management's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
The grant program aims to ensure the long-term conservation of wildlife and biodiversity on public lands by using a science-based approach. It focuses on identifying projects that support meeting land health standards and desired resource objectives for priority species and habitats as outlined in land use plans. It addresses habitat connectivity issues and the impact of climate change on achieving short- and long-term objectives, ensuring vital support for thousands of species across various taxa living in BLM-managed lands.
