Opportunity Summary:
The SNPLMA Round 13 Hazardous Fuels Reduction Projects grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L13AS00050) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement issued under the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act program (CFDA 15.235). It was offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means BLM expected to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than acting only as a pass-through funder. The funding activity area is natural resources, with a clear emphasis on reducing hazardous vegetation fuels and improving wildfire prevention planning.
The core purpose of the opportunity was to identify a partner capable of helping develop and implement comprehensive, cost-effective, multi-jurisdictional hazardous fuels reduction and wildfire prevention plans specifically for the Lake Tahoe Basin. The focus on "multi-jurisdictional" signals that the work was intended to coordinate across multiple landowners and agencies, which in the Tahoe Basin often includes federal, state, county, and local entities as well as special districts and nonprofit partners. The intent was not just isolated treatment work, but planning and implementation structured in a way that aligns priorities, reduces duplication, and supports consistent approaches across boundaries where wildfire risk does not stop at ownership lines.
Funding available under this announcement was estimated at $938,650 total, and the award ceiling was also listed as $938,650, with an award floor of $0. The BLM anticipated making up to four awards, suggesting the funding could be split among multiple partners or project components depending on the proposals received and how BLM chose to structure awards. A cost share or matching requirement was not mandated, which lowers the barrier for eligible applicants that may not have substantial non-federal match available, although applicants in similar programs sometimes still propose leverage or partner contributions to strengthen competitiveness.
Eligibility was open to a range of public and nonprofit entities: state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, and nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). This eligibility set aligns with the multi-jurisdictional nature of the work, making it possible for local governments, regional fire or resource districts, and conservation or community nonprofits to apply, either as lead applicants or in collaboration with other entities.
The opportunity was posted on March 14, 2013, with an original and current closing date of March 29, 2013, and it was archived on April 29, 2013. The announcement directed applicants to use the application package and instructions available through the posting (via the application tab in the original platform). For access issues or questions, the listed point of contact was Gretchen Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at 775-861-6740 and by email at geykelbosh@blm.gov.
Overall, this funding opportunity was designed to support coordinated wildfire risk reduction in the Lake Tahoe Basin by backing partners who could plan and carry out hazardous fuels reduction and prevention efforts across multiple jurisdictions, with BLM engagement through a cooperative agreement structure and up to roughly $0.94 million available across an expected four awards.
