Opportunity Information: Apply for FA NOFO0024 001
The BLM-National Interagency Fire Center Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) Graduate Research Innovation (GRIN) Award One is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management, offered through a cooperative agreement mechanism. It is designed to support graduate-level research that helps solve practical, science-driven problems tied to wildland fuels management, wildfire behavior and effects, and the condition and recovery of fire-impacted ecosystems. The opportunity sits under the Natural Resources funding activity category (CFDA 15.232) and is framed around the needs of land and fire managers who rely on applied research to make decisions in complex fire environments.
JFSP itself is described as a partnership among seven federal wildland fire management and research agencies that share common challenges and information needs related to wildland fire. Those partner agencies include the USDA Forest Service and several Department of the Interior organizations: the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and U.S. Geological Survey, with additional DOI representation through the Office of Wildland Fire. Funding support for JFSP comes from both DOI and the Forest Service, emphasizing that the program is meant to be interagency and broadly relevant across federal fire and land management missions. Applicants are encouraged to consult the JFSP website (https://www.firescience.gov) for additional program background and context.
Key logistics are strict and non-negotiable. Proposals had to be submitted electronically through the submission process on the JFSP website rather than through Grants.gov, and the deadline was September 28, 2023 at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Time, with no exceptions. The notice also makes clear that proposals must comply with all requirements laid out in the funding opportunity announcement, particularly the requirements referenced in Section V, and that any proposal failing to meet those requirements would be rejected without further consideration.
From a funding and scale standpoint, the award ceiling is listed as $25,000, and the program anticipated making about 25 awards. Eligibility is described as “unrestricted,” meaning it is open to any type of entity, with the caveat that applicants should still check for any clarifications or conditions included in the announcement’s “Additional Information on Eligibility” section. Administrative and technical points of contact are provided for prospective applicants: Becky Jenison (Program Analyst) for administrative questions at bjenison@blm.gov, and Molly Hunter (JFSP Science Advisor) for task statement questions at mhunter@blm.gov.Apply for FA NOFO0024 001
