Opportunity Summary:

The 2012 JFSP Funding Proposals opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00030) is a discretionary federal grant competition administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program (CFDA 15.232). The program is focused on science and technology and other research and development activities related to wildland fire. Awards are issued as cooperative agreements, which typically means that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, coordination on project direction, deliverables, data sharing, or other technical engagement), rather than simply providing funds and stepping back as with some standard grants.

Funding for this opportunity is specifically intended for proposal funding tied to projects submitted under the original Grants.gov announcement. In other words, this posting is not framed as a broad new topic solicitation on its own; it is a mechanism to support projects that were already submitted through the original announcement process. The full announcement and instructions were available through the application package in Grants.gov (referenced as being accessible via the application tab in the original posting).

The opportunity anticipated making about 5 awards, with an estimated total program funding amount of $50,000. Individual award sizes were relatively small, with a stated award floor of $5,000 and an award ceiling of $10,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds or in-kind support as a condition of receiving an award, at least per the posted summary data.

Eligibility was limited to nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status recognized by the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. That restriction narrows the applicant pool to charitable nonprofit organizations that are not universities or colleges, which may include nonprofit research organizations, conservation nonprofits, or other mission-driven entities capable of carrying out applied research or related project work in the wildland fire space.

Key dates for this opportunity show it was posted and created on February 23, 2012, with an application deadline (original and current closing date) of March 9, 2012. The opportunity was archived on May 31, 2012, indicating it is no longer open for applications and is provided for recordkeeping and reference.

For support, the listed point of contact was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 208-373-3817 or by email at cshaver@blm.gov. Applicants who had trouble accessing the announcement electronically were directed to contact her for assistance.
