Opportunity Summary:
The Idaho Firewise grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00252) was a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It focused on natural resources and, more specifically, on community fire assistance in wildland-urban interface areas under CFDA 15.228, the National Fire Plan: Wildland Urban Interface Community Fire Assistance program. The purpose of the award was straightforward: to provide a fire education program for communities in Idaho, supporting efforts that help residents understand wildfire risk and take practical steps to reduce it.
This opportunity anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $34,200. The award ceiling was also $34,200, meaning the maximum available federal support for the selected project was capped at that amount. The award floor was listed as $0, which generally signals there was no stated minimum request threshold in the summary information. Importantly, the listing stated there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to bring non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive based on match alone.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity as a baseline (for example, local governments, tribes, nonprofits, educational institutions, or other organizations), subject to any further clarifications that may have been included in the full announcement. Because the public summary points applicants to the full announcement for complete instructions and requirements, the detailed scope, deliverables, reporting expectations, and selection criteria would have been laid out in that full application package.
Timing-wise, the opportunity was posted and created on August 30, 2011, and it had an original and current closing date of September 9, 2011, indicating a short application window of roughly ten days. The archive date was October 30, 2011, meaning the opportunity was later moved into an archived status after the application period ended.
For applicants who needed help obtaining or accessing the full announcement, the listed contact was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 208-373-3817 or by email at cshaver@blm.gov.
