Opportunity Summary:

The Great Basin Science Delivery Phase 2 GBCESU Project (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00254) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant opportunity offered through a cooperative agreement to support wildland fire science and resource management work in the Great Basin. It was tied to the Joint Fire Science Program and served as a continuation of efforts under the Great Basin Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit (GBCESU) agreement. The core purpose was to fund research and related studies that strengthen wildland fire and natural resource decision making, with an emphasis on translating science into practical products and tools that can be used at multiple decision levels, from on-the-ground operations to broader planning and policy.

The opportunity focused on improving how agencies and partners understand and manage fire-related issues by encouraging projects that generate usable information for wildland fire management. In practical terms, it aimed to support work that helps meet National Fire Plan objectives, which commonly include improving fire preparedness and response, reducing hazardous fuels, restoring fire-adapted ecosystems, and protecting communities and resources. A major theme of the announcement was "science delivery," meaning proposals were expected not only to produce research findings, but also to package outcomes into decision-support tools, guidance, or other deliverables that make it easier for practitioners and managers to apply the science.

Funding was set for a single award, with an expected award count of 1 and a total estimated funding amount of $304,759. The award ceiling and floor were both $304,759, indicating the agency anticipated one award at that fixed amount rather than a range of possible award sizes. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA program was 15.232, Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program.

Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was open to any type of entity, subject to any further limitations that might have appeared in the full announcement. Key dates show it was posted on August 9, 2010, and closed on August 26, 2010, with an archive date of September 15, 2010. For applicants needing assistance accessing the full notice, the listing provided a point of contact: Susan Kaller, Grants Management Officer, at 775-861-6559 and susankaller@blm.gov.
