The objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to create county-level socioeconomic baselines for each county in Nevada using consistent content, format, and detail.
This project supports both broad Department of Interior-level priorities while meeting the needs of various national,
state, and local public and private entities.
County-level socioeconomic baselines, developed collaboratively across various entities, have a variety of benefits.
Developing these baselines collaboratively presents an opportunity for various entities affected by public land management to teach and learn about local socioeconomic conditions, both historical and current.
These county-level socioeconomic baselines can be incorporated in National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analyses for any Federal agency and have immediate buy in by potentially affected entities.
Establishing standard and uniform socioeconomic baselines will facilitate consistent socioeconomic impact analyses that support economic development in the local communities in which the BLM has a presence.
