Opportunity Summary:
The Spruce Mountain and Marking Corral's Joint Fire Sciences Research Project is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding notice that serves mainly as a public announcement of intent rather than a competitive grant solicitation. In other words, it is not asking organizations to apply. Instead, BLM is informing the public that it plans to fund a specific set of project activities without using full and open competition, meaning the agency already has an intended partner and scope in mind.
The project is described as a continuation of ongoing work with the Eastern Nevada Landscape Coalition, focused on fire science and fuels-related research and treatment work in eastern Nevada. The core effort involves conducting scientific analyses alongside on-the-ground mechanical treatments in sagebrush ecological sites that have been increasingly encroached upon by pinyon and/or juniper. This kind of encroachment is a major issue in many Great Basin landscapes because expanding pinyon-juniper woodlands can alter habitat conditions, reduce native sagebrush and understory plant communities, and change fire behavior by increasing fuel continuity and ladder fuels. The notice indicates that the work includes both research-oriented analysis and practical treatment implementation, with related tasks necessary to carry out those activities.
Administratively, the opportunity is categorized as a discretionary funding action using a cooperative agreement, which generally implies that BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project (for example, collaborating on planning, oversight, or technical direction) rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the funding is associated with CFDA 15.228 under the National Fire Plan, specifically tied to Wildland-Urban Interface Community Fire Assistance, reflecting an emphasis on reducing wildfire risk and improving landscape resilience in areas where wildfire can threaten communities and resources.
The notice anticipates a single award with total funding of $100,000, and it lists the award ceiling and floor both as $100,000, indicating a fixed amount rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated. Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education, although the practical effect here is limited because the announcement is not open for applications and is intended to document BLM's plan to fund a particular partner without competition.
Key dates show the notice was posted and created on August 12, 2008, with an original and current closing date of August 19, 2008, and an archive date of August 20, 2008. For access issues or questions about the announcement itself, the listed point of contact is Susan Kaller, Grants and Agreements Specialist at BLM, reachable by phone at 775-861-6559 or by email at skaller@blm.gov.
