Opportunity Summary:
The Joint Fire Science Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00082) was a discretionary federal grant offered by the Bureau of Land Management to support scientific studies focused on fuels and fire research. The core purpose of the funding was to generate practical, science-based information that can help land and fire managers make better decisions in ecosystems affected by wildfire and related fuel conditions. In other words, the program was aimed at research that improves real-world management of fire-impacted landscapes, especially where questions about fuels, fire behavior, ecological effects, and management actions are central to planning and response.
This opportunity fell under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category and was tied to CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.232, Wildland Fire Research and Studies Program. The funding instrument was a grant, and the agency anticipated making about two awards under this announcement. The estimated total funding available was $633,518, and the maximum award amount (the award ceiling) was also listed as $633,518, with an award floor of $0. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility or award.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status that are not institutions of higher education. This indicates the competition was designed for qualified nonprofit research and science organizations outside the university category, likely to encourage applied research capacity in the nonprofit sector while still maintaining a scientific focus aligned with federal land management needs.
The opportunity was posted on May 3, 2011, with the same creation date, and it originally closed on May 20, 2011 (which also remained the current closing date). The announcement was later archived on July 3, 2011, which typically means it was no longer accepting applications and was retained for recordkeeping and reference. Applicants were directed to access full instructions and the application package through the announcement materials (referenced as an Application tab in the original posting). For assistance obtaining or accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Christine K. Shaver, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at 208-373-3817 or by email at cshaver@blm.gov.
