Opportunity Summary:
The Campbell Tract Fuel Break Maintenance, Anchorage, Alaska grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00094) is a Bureau of Land Management discretionary funding announcement focused on natural resources and wildfire risk reduction. The work is centered on maintaining the existing fuel break corridor in the Campbell Tract area near Anchorage by removing hazardous fuels so the corridor is returned to a condition that helps limit wildfire spread and intensity. The core intent is operational: improve fire suppression capability and increase the chances of slowing or stopping a fire as it approaches or moves through the corridor.
The project scope emphasizes reducing fuel loading that has built up over time, specifically by removing new spruce growth and clearing wind-thrown trees that have accumulated within the fuel break. These materials can contribute to heavier surface and ladder fuels, which can increase fire behavior and make suppression more difficult. By cutting and removing this vegetation and debris, the fuel break is expected to function more effectively as a strategic buffer that supports wildfire response efforts in the wildland-urban interface context.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, indicating the agency anticipated an assistance relationship that may involve coordination and substantial involvement by BLM rather than a simple purchase of services. The total funding amount is fixed at $14,500, with an award ceiling and floor both set at $14,500, and the announcement anticipated making one award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants. The opportunity is associated with CFDA number 15.228, National Fire Plan, Wildland Urban Interface Community Fire Assistance, aligning it with broader federal efforts to reduce hazardous fuels and improve community protection from wildfire.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of applicant, subject to any additional eligibility details that may have appeared in the full announcement package. Key dates show the opportunity was posted May 11, 2011, created May 24, 2011, with an original closing date of June 3, 2011, later extended to a current closing date of June 24, 2011.
