Joint Fire Science Program Synthesis Announcement | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The Joint Fire Science Program (JFS) Synthesis Announcement is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior focused on supporting science and technology research related to wildland fire. The program funds scientific work intended to tackle practical, real-world problems faced by land and fire managers, especially issues tied to managing wildland fuels, understanding and responding to wildfire behavior, and improving stewardship and recovery of fire-impacted ecosystems. The emphasis in the title on "synthesis" suggests a focus on pulling together existing scientific knowledge in a way that is useful for decision-making, such as consolidating findings across multiple studies, identifying patterns and gaps in the literature, and translating research into actionable insights for managers and practitioners.

This opportunity was posted on September 25, 2009, and carried an original and current closing date of November 20, 2009, with an archive date of December 20, 2009. The funding opportunity number is FA RFA10 0002, and it is associated with CFDA 15.232, the Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program. The announcement anticipated making about five awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $600,000. The award ceiling is listed as $600,000, while the award floor is $0, indicating that award sizes could vary and that the program reserved flexibility in how funds might be distributed across selected projects, potentially including fewer or smaller awards depending on proposal quality and program priorities.

Eligibility is described as "unrestricted," meaning it is broadly open to any type of applicant entity, although applicants would still need to verify any specific clarifications contained in the full announcement text under the section typically labeled "Additional Information on Eligibility." No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, so applicants would not be expected to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award. The funding instrument type is listed as "Other," which commonly signals a mechanism outside the standard grant or cooperative agreement labels, and applicants would need to review the full solicitation to understand the exact form of agreement and any associated administrative or reporting expectations.

For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Becky Jenison, Administrative Analyst, reachable by phone at 208-387-5958. The announcement notes an email address but does not include it in the provided text, so anyone needing email contact would likely have needed to consult the original posting or agency directory for the complete details.
