Opportunity Information: Apply for BIA IHSP 2019 0001
The Indian Highway Safety Law Enforcement Grants opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: BIA IHSP 2019 0001) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior through the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), Office of Justice Services (OJS), under its Indian Highway Safety Program (IHSP). The purpose of the program is to support traffic safety efforts in Indian Country by funding programs and projects that directly aim to reduce traffic crashes and the resulting fatalities, injuries, and property damage affecting tribal communities.
This funding is specifically available to federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The grant instrument is a standard grant, and it is described as reimbursable, meaning recipients generally must follow the program rules for allowable costs and then request reimbursement for eligible expenses rather than receiving all funds up front. The activity area is transportation, and the opportunity is associated with CFDA number 20.600, which is commonly tied to highway safety-related assistance.
Applicants are expected to propose practical, enforceable traffic safety initiatives, typically centered on law enforcement and related safety programming. While the notice does not list individual project types in the provided text, the stated goals make clear that proposals should be oriented toward measurable reductions in crash-related harms. In practice, this kind of highway safety grant often supports activities such as targeted traffic enforcement, impaired driving deterrence, occupant protection efforts (seat belt and child safety seat initiatives), speed management, pedestrian safety, and other data-informed enforcement or prevention strategies tailored to local conditions.
Key administrative details include the creation date of March 14, 2018, and an original application deadline of May 1, 2018. Complete proposals had to be received by 12:00 PM Mountain Standard Time on that date. The notice indicates an expectation of roughly 100 awards, suggesting a program designed to reach a broad set of tribal communities. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically means no specific maximum award amount is stated in the public summary, rather than implying that awards have no financial value; actual award sizes are usually determined by available appropriations, applicant need, project scope, and program priorities.
Overall, the opportunity is meant to help tribes plan and run traffic safety and law enforcement projects that address local roadway risks, strengthen enforcement capacity, and reduce serious injuries and deaths on tribal roads through focused, results-driven safety interventions.Apply for BIA IHSP 2019 0001
