2022 Nationally Significant Federal Lands and Tribal Projects Program

The 2022 Nationally Significant Federal Lands and Tribal Projects Program provides funding for construction, reconstruction, or rehabilitation of transportation facilities within, adjacent to, or providing access to Federal or Tribal lands. The program has $125.215 million available for FY 2022, with 50% of the funds allocated for projects on Federal lands transportation facilities and 50% for projects on Tribal transportation facilities. Key points to consider: • The program is competitive, and applications must demonstrate how the project aligns with the statutory and discretionary criteria. • Eligible applicants include entities that receive funds under the Federal Lands Access Program, Federal Lands Transportation Program, Tribal Transportation Program, and Federal Lands Planning Program. • The Federal share of project costs can be up to 100% for Tribal transportation facilities and up to 90% for other facilities. • Applications must include a project narrative, budget, and other supporting documents. • The review and selection process will consist of a technical review and senior review, with the final funding decisions made by the Secretary of Transportation.
