Opportunity Summary:
The JFSP Knowledge Exchange Consortia Pre-proposals opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: FA FON0014 0004) is a discretionary federal funding announcement administered by the Bureau of Land Management under the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP). The core purpose of JFSP is to fund scientific work that helps solve practical, on-the-ground problems tied to wildland fuels management, wildland fire, and ecosystems affected by fire. In this particular call, the emphasis is on "knowledge exchange consortia," which generally refers to organized efforts that connect research producers and research users so that wildfire and fuels science is easier to find, understand, apply, and evaluate in real management settings.
Awards under this announcement are planned as cooperative agreements, which typically means the agency expects to be substantially involved in the funded work rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The activity category is listed as science and technology and other research and development, aligning the work with applied research, synthesis, and related activities that strengthen the flow of usable fire science into decision-making. The program anticipated making about three awards, supported by an estimated total funding amount of $250,000 across all awards. No cost sharing or matching was required, which can lower barriers for applicants that do not have non-federal resources to contribute.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was broadly open to many entity types (for example, universities, nonprofits, state and local governments, tribes, and potentially private organizations), with the caveat that any additional constraints would be spelled out in the full announcement instructions. The funding is associated with CFDA 15.232, the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program, which is the federal assistance listing tied to this area of wildfire research support.
This posting reflects a pre-proposal stage, indicating applicants were first asked to submit a shorter initial concept or preliminary application for review before being invited (if selected) to prepare a full proposal. Key dates in the listing show the opportunity was posted on September 26, 2013, with an original closing date of November 22, 2013, later extended to a current closing date of December 11, 2013. The archive date was December 22, 2013, meaning it is no longer open. Award floor and ceiling are listed as zero in the summary data, which usually signals that exact award size parameters were either not specified in the high-level listing or were provided in the full announcement documentation instead.
For applicants needing the full instructions, the announcement directed users to the application materials available through the posting (via the application tab noted in the listing). A specific contact was provided for access issues and questions: Becky Jenison, JFSP Administrative Analyst, reachable at 208-387-5958 or bjenison@blm.gov.
