Opportunity Summary:
The JFSP Publication Assessment opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00260) was a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program (CFDA 15.232). The purpose of the award was to fund an evaluation of Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) publications, with a specific focus on assessing their effectiveness and overall quality. In practical terms, the project was aimed at taking a close, structured look at JFSP-produced materials and determining how well those publications perform, including how useful, clear, credible, and impactful they are for their intended audiences and goals.
The funding instrument was a cooperative agreement, which generally signals that BLM expected to be more involved than it would be under a standard grant. Cooperative agreements often involve agency participation in shaping the work, coordinating with program staff, or providing input during execution, so applicants would typically anticipate collaboration with BLM or JFSP representatives while conducting the assessment. The opportunity fell under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category, reflecting that the work was research-oriented and evaluative rather than operational fire response.
BLM anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $90,000. The award ceiling was also $90,000 and the award floor was listed as $0, meaning proposals could be submitted at different budget levels up to the maximum, depending on the scope and approach proposed. No cost sharing or matching requirement was included, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility or competitiveness.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was open to essentially any type of applicant organization or entity, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may have been provided in the full announcement. The announcement was posted on September 6, 2011, with the application closing date set for September 17, 2011. The opportunity was later archived on November 6, 2011, indicating the active application period had ended and the listing was moved into an archived status for recordkeeping.
For applicants needing the full details, BLM directed interested parties to download the full announcement and application package via the application materials associated with the posting. The listed point of contact for access issues was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at 208-373-3817 or by email at christineshaver@blm.gov.
