Opportunity Summary:
The 2012 JFSP Funding Proposals opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00029) was a discretionary federal grant competition administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It supported science and technology research and development projects under the CFDA program 15.232, Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program. The purpose of the posting was to provide proposal funding for projects that had been submitted under the original Grants.gov announcement for the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP), meaning this solicitation functioned as a mechanism to fund proposals already submitted through that earlier call rather than inviting an entirely new topic area described in the short notice itself.
Awards were issued as cooperative agreements, which typically means the agency expected to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, coordination on deliverables, collaboration on research direction, or participation in project oversight), as opposed to a standard grant where involvement is generally more limited. The program anticipated making about 7 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $386,164. Individual award amounts were expected to range from a floor of $5,000 up to a ceiling of $300,000. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, so applicants were not obligated to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of award.
Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating that state universities and similar public colleges were the intended applicant pool. Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on February 23, 2012, with an original and current closing date of March 9, 2012, and it was archived on May 31, 2012. Applicants were directed to the application materials and full instructions available through the announcement’s application tab on Grants.gov.
For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer, reachable at (208) 373-3817 or by email at cshaver@blm.gov.
