Interior discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Interior's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
address efforts to further assess and address deferred maintenance across BIE schools, with a targeted focus on improving building safety, and structural integrity. These investments are critical to providing safe, sustainable learning environments for students and staff, reducing long- term maintenance liabilities, and enabling schools to remain fully operational. Prioritizing life- safety deficiencies and high-risk systems ensures that limited resources are deployed effectively to mitigate hazards and support uninterrupted educational services. Tribal Colleges Facilities Improvement and Repair (-$16,000,000/ 0 FTE) - The budget does not request funding for Replacement School Construction. The FY 2025 Deferred Maintenance and Repair (DM&R) for Education Construction was estimated at approximately $1 billion. This estimate includes schools, housing, operational buildings, recreation, utility assets and DM&R associated with grounds which started being reported in the Federal Real Property Profile (FRPP) in FY 2024. BIE is prioritizing school projects to ensure that students are able to attend safe, healthy, and culturally relevant schools, but deferred maintenance and repairs continue to accrue. A Lifecyle Pilot Program is being initiated for BIE schools to replace roofs, boilers, and HVAC systems before they fail and have reached the end of their useful life.
