Opportunity Summary:

The JFSP Data Archival 1 Task Statement (Funding Opportunity Number FA RFA012 0004) is a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered through the Bureau of Land Management on behalf of the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP). JFSP supports science and technology research and development that helps managers and practitioners deal with real-world challenges tied to wildland fuels, wildfire, and ecosystems affected by fire. While the title indicates this specific call is focused on "data archival," it sits within JFSP's broader mission of improving the scientific foundation and practical tools used in wildland fire and fuels management.

This opportunity was posted on September 26, 2011, with an application deadline of November 18, 2011, and an archive date of December 18, 2011. The program anticipated making about 15 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $150,000 for the announcement. The listing shows award ceiling and floor values as $0, which typically signals that individual award amounts were not specified in the summary fields and that applicants would need to consult the full announcement for any per-award budget guidance, scope expectations, and deliverable requirements. No cost sharing or matching was required, which generally makes participation easier for applicants that may not have non-federal funds available to contribute.

Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity, subject to any additional eligibility details contained in the full text of the announcement. In practice, "unrestricted" federal opportunities can include universities, nonprofits, private entities, tribal governments, state and local agencies, and federal partners when permitted, but applicants still need to confirm any constraints or special conditions described in the complete posting on Grants.gov. The relevant CFDA number associated with this opportunity is 15.232, Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program, which is the catalog program area used for tracking and reporting federal assistance tied to wildland fire research.

For applicants or interested parties who needed help accessing the full announcement, the notice provided direct contacts at BLM: John Cissel (Program Manager) at 208-387-5349 and jcissel@blm.gov, and Becky Jenison (Administrative Analyst) at 208-387-5958 and bjenison@blm.gov. The official application and additional details were routed through Grants.gov (www.grants.gov), which is where prospective applicants would normally find the full task statement, required application components, submission instructions, evaluation criteria, and any specific requirements tied to data management and archival deliverables.
