Opportunity Summary:
The JFSP AFE Conference Support grant (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00265) was a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under CFDA 15.232, the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program. Its purpose was to provide funding support for a conference focused on delivering the latest scientific information related to fire ecology, aligning with the broader Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) mission of advancing and communicating wildland fire science to practitioners, managers, and stakeholders.
This opportunity was categorized under Science and Technology and other Research and Development, and it was structured specifically as a grant (not a contract). The program anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $30,000. The award ceiling was $30,000 and the award floor was $0, meaning proposals could request up to the full amount available, and there was no stated minimum request threshold beyond what would be reasonable for the proposed conference support activities. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility or award.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations holding IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. In practical terms, this meant qualified nonprofit entities could apply as long as they met the IRS designation requirements and were not universities or colleges applying in that capacity. The focus on nonprofit eligibility suggests the program was targeting organizations capable of convening professional or scientific meetings and disseminating research findings to a broad audience, particularly those involved in fire science communication and outreach.
The timeline for the opportunity was short and clearly defined. The notice was posted on September 6, 2011, with the original and current closing date both listed as September 17, 2011. The funding opportunity was later archived on November 6, 2011, indicating it is no longer open for applications. The listing also noted an application package and full announcement instructions were available via the "application" tab in the original posting, implying that detailed requirements, evaluation criteria, allowable costs, and submission instructions were contained in the full announcement.
For support related to accessing the full announcement or handling electronic access issues, the designated contact was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at 208-373-3817 and by email at cshaver@blm.gov.
