Opportunity Summary:

The 2012 Joint Fire Science Program Proposal opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00105) was a discretionary, competitive federal grant solicitation administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It supported science and technology research and other research and development activities tied to wildland fire, falling under CFDA 15.232, the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program. Awards were to be issued as cooperative agreements, which typically means the funding agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination, technical input, or collaboration), rather than providing funds with minimal engagement as in a standard grant.

This opportunity served as a follow-on administrative vehicle for proposals that had already been submitted and selected under earlier Grants.gov announcements identified as FA RFA012 0001, FA RFA012 0002, and FA RFA012 0003. In other words, it was not positioned as an open, broad solicitation for brand-new submissions; it was linked to proposals previously competed through those initial request for applications (RFA) postings. Full instructions and the application package were made available through the Grants.gov application materials referenced in the announcement.

In terms of scale and timing, the opportunity was posted and created on May 19, 2012, with an original and final closing date of June 11, 2012. It was later archived on July 19, 2012. The announcement indicated an expectation of 14 total awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,766,652. The listed award ceiling matched that total ($1,766,652), while the award floor was $0, signaling that individual project award sizes could vary and that not every project needed to meet a minimum dollar threshold.

Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. The announcement also specified that there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award.

For applicant support, the point of contact provided was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable at 208-373-3817 or via email at christineshaver@blm.gov, particularly for those who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically.
