From staff reports WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Public Lands Council announced July 2 a rolling notice of funding availability accompanying the existing grant funding process for Fiscal Year 2025. The two-track process allows individuals and organizations to submit proposals throughout the year to be evaluated on an as-received basis.
PLC maintains a call for collaboration through requests for proposals that address specific PLC needs and objectives throughout the year. Both tracks of available funding support partnerships and research capacity aimed at addressing unique needs of federal lands ranchers and grazing community.
PLC President Mark Roeber emphasized the efficiency of a rolling submission process. “Utilizing a rolling submission process for applications of this kind will help streamline the proposal process and provide wider opportunities for people doing good work to seek PLC’s support.”
More than 22,000 public land ranchers maintain more than 250 million acres of U.S. public land, livestock production and grazing on federal lands contributes to the economic and social sustainability of America’s rural communities, according to PLC’s website.
Requests for proposals and rolling submissions must meet PLC’s distribution guidelines and other associated requirements. For more details, visit publiclandscouncil.org/grants.
