Opportunity Summary:
The Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00117) was a discretionary, research-focused funding announcement administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) under the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program (CFDA 15.232). It supported science and technology and other research and development efforts related to wildland fire. The posting reflects the program's "2014 Funded Proposals," meaning it corresponds to projects selected for funding during that cycle and provides the official federal record for those awards.
Awards under this opportunity were made using cooperative agreements rather than standard grants, which typically indicates a higher level of federal involvement during the project period (for example, coordination, technical participation, or other substantial agency engagement as the work proceeds). The opportunity anticipated making about 22 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $4,083,000. Individual awards could be as large as $435,000, and the stated award floor was $0, which generally signals flexibility in award sizing depending on the scope, approach, and budget needs of each proposed project.
Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, so the main intended applicants were public universities and similar state-run academic entities capable of conducting applied and/or fundamental research relevant to fire science. The announcement explicitly stated that there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to provide non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award, which can reduce barriers to participation and allow proposals to be evaluated primarily on scientific merit, relevance, and feasibility rather than institutional ability to contribute matching funds.
Key administrative dates show the opportunity was posted on May 22, 2014 (created May 21, 2014), with an original and current closing date of June 2, 2014, and an archive date of July 22, 2014. In practical terms, that timeline indicates a short application window, and the archiving confirms it is no longer open for new submissions. For full details, applicants were directed to download the complete announcement and application package through the application materials associated with the posting.
For assistance accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Christine Shaver, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 208-373-3817 and by email at cshaver@blm.gov.
