Opportunity Information: Apply for OIA MAP 2025 V2

The OIA Maintenance Assistance Program (MAP) 2025 (reposted July 2, 2025) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Office of Insular Affairs (OIA), designed to strengthen how critical infrastructure is maintained across seven insular areas. The focus is not on building brand-new infrastructure, but on improving day-to-day and long-term maintenance practices so existing systems last longer, perform better, and remain safer and more resilient over time. MAP funding is intended to help recipients support, develop, improve, and institutionalize maintenance practices, meaning the program is geared toward creating sustained, repeatable maintenance capacity rather than one-off efforts.

The core activities emphasized in the notice revolve around maintenance training and capacity-building that directly extends the usable life of island infrastructure, improves operational reliability, and protects the health and safety of maintenance technicians. The opportunity also highlights readiness for extreme events, particularly those tied to tropical weather. Projects may include training that increases technicians knowledge of protective measures for infrastructure before, during, and after severe weather, with the broader goal of reducing damage, speeding recovery, and improving overall resilience. The description also connects improved maintenance to wider community outcomes, including promoting economic growth, since more reliable infrastructure supports essential services and local economies.

Eligibility is limited to non-federal entities whose work directly benefits one or more of the seven insular areas. Eligible applicants include local government agencies (including utilities) in the U.S. territories of American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), and the U.S. Virgin Islands, as well as entities in the Freely Associated States (FAS): the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI), and the Republic of Palau. In addition to government agencies and utilities, the opportunity lists hospitals and health centers, institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations as eligible, as long as the proposed project directly benefits one or more of these locations and aligns with applicable federal grant requirements.

Administrative and compliance expectations are tied to the Uniform Guidance at 2 CFR 200 (Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards). Applicants should expect that standard federal rules for budgeting, allowable costs, procurement, financial management, and audits apply. A notable restriction is explicitly stated: under 2 CFR 200.444, OIA cannot provide funding to the Judicial or Legislative branches of local governments, which means those branches are ineligible to receive MAP funds directly.

Key listing details from the opportunity include the Funding Opportunity Number OIA MAP 2025 V2, CFDA number 15.875, and a grant funding instrument. The application deadline listed is August 15, 2025. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $350,000. The notice references an Application Package Checklist, signaling that applicants should closely follow required submission components and formatting to avoid being deemed incomplete.
