Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "JFSP Fuels Treatment Science Plan and Advisor" (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00082) is a discretionary federal funding announcement administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under CFDA 15.232, the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program. It was designed to support science and technology research and development activities through a cooperative agreement, with the central purpose of providing science advice to the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP). The work is intended to be informed directly by JFSPs past and ongoing research investments, meaning the successful applicant would be expected to understand the programs existing portfolio and use that knowledge to guide planning and decision-making related to fuels treatment research and science priorities.

Funding was structured around a single anticipated award (Expected Awards: 1), with an estimated total funding amount of $600,000. The announcement listed an award ceiling of $300,000 and an award floor of $0, indicating the maximum amount that could be awarded per award under this notice, while leaving flexibility for the final negotiated amount. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which typically lowers the barrier to applying because the applicant is not obligated to contribute non-federal funds or in-kind support as a condition of the award.

Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any additional eligibility details that may have been included in the full announcement. In practice, "unrestricted" opportunities like this can attract universities, nonprofit research organizations, private firms, or other qualified entities capable of providing credible scientific and technical advisory support related to wildland fire and fuels treatment research.

Key dates show the opportunity was posted on April 10, 2015, created on April 14, 2015, and closed on June 10, 2015, with the archive date set for July 10, 2015. The full announcement and application package were made available through an application tab linked in the posting, and applicants who had difficulty accessing materials were directed to contact the grants management specialist, Christine Shaver, at (208) 373-3817 or by email at cshaver@blm.gov.
