Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR/WA CESU Westside Mature Forest Study grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00005) is a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the project is expected to involve substantial involvement and coordination between the recipient and the BLM rather than functioning as a hands-off grant. The program sits within the Natural Resources funding activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.233, Forests and Woodlands Resource Management.
The purpose of the award is to continue and further develop Oregon State Universitys Mature Forest Study, described as a unique, long-term research effort focused on intensively managed Douglas fir forests in western Oregon. In practical terms, the opportunity supports ongoing research and monitoring aimed at improving understanding of how managed Douglas fir stands develop as they mature, and how management actions may influence forest structure, ecological function, and resource outcomes over time. Because the announcement emphasizes continuity and advancement of an existing long-term study, it is geared toward sustaining established study sites, datasets, and research methods while enabling additional analysis or expanded field work that builds on prior years of monitoring.
The opportunity anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $500,000. Individual award amounts were expected to range from a minimum (award floor) of $1 up to a maximum (award ceiling) of $100,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement was listed, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility or award. The only eligible applicants category identified was public and state controlled institutions of higher education, aligning with the projects focus on academic research capacity and long-term scientific study.
Key dates for the competition show it was posted and created on December 12, 2014, with an original and current closing date of January 26, 2015, and an archive date of December 11, 2015.
