Instructions for Completion of
Bureau of Indian Affairs
Indian Highway Safety Program
Law Enforcement Grant Application
The Highway Safety Act of 1966, U.S.C. Title 23, Section 402, provides U.S. Department of
Transportation funding to assist Indian tribes in implementing traffic safety projects. These
projects are designed to reduce the high number of traffic crashes, motor vehicle crash fatalities,
injuries and property damage within Indian Country. These 402 funds are intended to
supplement an existing traffic safety program on the reservation.
The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) Office of Justice Services (OJS) Indian Highway Safety
Program (IHSP) offers data driven performance based grant opportunities. Tribes can apply for
straight time or overtime hour law enforcement grants with this application; use the drop down
menu to select the grant the Tribe is interested in applying for. A traffic safety problem must be
identified; all applications must contain measurable targets/performance measures, and be
justified by confirm-able data. Insufficient data to justify a traffic safety problem will
significantly reduce the possibility of funding for the tribe. Complete the application in its
entirety; do not leave any blank spaces/fields.
IHSP grants are funded in the form of reimbursements. Tribes must first expend their funds and
submit documentation for reconciliation and reimbursement each month. Monthly report and
financial reports (requests for reimbursement) are required. A Tribal Resolution and the Tribe’s
most current approved Indirect Cost Rate Agreement letter must be submitted with the
application. Please contact the IHSP at (505)375-3818 to inquire about BIA IHSP Grant Writing
Training.
Grant applications are due by May 1 of the current year for the next fiscal year award. Grant
applications and attachments can be e-mailed to ojs_indian_highway_safety@bia.gov or
