Opportunity Summary:
The BLM OR/WA Rural Fire Assistance (RFA) FY 2010 grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00250) is a discretionary Bureau of Land Management program designed to strengthen the readiness and effectiveness of rural and volunteer fire departments that protect rural communities and regularly support wildland fire suppression efforts on, near, or in the vicinity of Department of the Interior-managed lands. The core purpose of the program is to improve local fire response capacity and capability, recognizing that rural departments often serve as critical first responders and key partners during wildfire incidents, especially in areas where federal, state, and local jurisdictions meet.
In this specific 2010 offering, the Bureau of Land Management is essentially funding a pass-through structure administered by the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF). ODF had already conducted the on-the-ground work of soliciting applications from eligible rural and volunteer fire departments in spring 2010 and had notified the successful local applicants. The federal opportunity described here invites ODF to submit the formal application to BLM so the state can receive the federal funds and then distribute (pass through) awards to the selected rural and volunteer fire departments. In practical terms, the competitive selection at the local department level had already occurred through ODF; the BLM grant is the mechanism that enables ODF to move forward with funding those selections.
The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and is tied to CFDA 15.242, National Fire Plan Rural Fire Assistance. It anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1), reflecting that the intended applicant is the State of Oregon through ODF rather than individual fire departments applying directly to BLM under this notice. Eligible applicants are limited to state governments. The funding parameters indicate an estimated total funding amount of $411,000, with an award ceiling of $411,000 and an award floor of $1, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means the recipient is not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the grant.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on August 6, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 16, 2010, indicating a short submission window consistent with a targeted, state-administered pass-through award. The archive date is August 6, 2011. The issuing agency is the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) for Oregon/Washington (OR/WA). For access issues or questions, the listed contact is Walter Ullrey, Agreements Specialist, reachable at 503-808-6230 or wullrey@blm.gov. Additional information is referenced through Grants.gov.
