Opportunity Information: Apply for P22AS00638
The LWCF State Assistance Formula Grants - State Planning - FY22 Cycle 1 opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P22AS00638) is a National Park Service (NPS) grant program designed to help states and U.S. territories meet a core eligibility requirement of the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) State and Local Assistance program: maintaining a current Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP). The LWCF State and Local Assistance program is a federal-state partnership where Congress provides annual appropriations to LWCF, and funds are then distributed to states and eligible territories using a legislative formula. In practice, the SCORP functions as the statewide roadmap that identifies outdoor recreation needs and demand, evaluates existing recreation resources, and sets priorities for how LWCF funds should be invested.
This particular grant cycle focuses specifically on state planning, meaning the funding is meant to support the development, update, and completion of a SCORP rather than on-the-ground construction or acquisition projects. NPS must review and approve each SCORP, and every state or territory is required to prepare a new or updated SCORP at least once every five years. Because a current, approved SCORP is normally required for a state to be eligible to submit LWCF project applications, this planning grant is essentially the mechanism that helps states stay compliant with the statutory planning requirement and remain positioned to access future LWCF assistance for recreation investments.
Eligibility is narrow and strictly enforced. Under 54 U.S.C. 200305(a), only the designated LWCF state lead agency may submit an application under this announcement. "States" is defined broadly here to include not only the 50 U.S. states, but also American Samoa, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Applications submitted by any entity other than the official state lead agency are automatically rejected without review, and NPS cannot award grants to non-lead agencies under this opportunity. Notably, a state lead agency can still apply for SCORP planning funding even if it is otherwise ineligible for LWCF grants due to not having a currently approved SCORP, which reinforces that the purpose of the grant is to restore or maintain compliance.
Administratively, this is a discretionary grant (not an entitlement), offered by the National Park Service under CFDA 15.916. The opportunity was created on February 8, 2022, with an original application closing date of March 18, 2022. The listed award ceiling is $250,000. While the notice indicates expected awards, the specific number of awards is not provided in the source data included.Apply for P22AS00638
