The Idaho Department of Lands is pleased to announce that the 2023 Grant Cycle is open for the Hazard Fuels Reduction (HFR) grant program.
Donor Name: Idaho Department of Lands
State: Idaho
County: All Counties
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 01/13/2023
Size of the Grant: up to $240,000
Details:
Grants of up to $240,000 each for the Hazard Fuels Reduction (HFR) grant program are available to help eligible entities implement on-the-ground fuels reduction projects to mitigate the risks from wildfire on non-federal lands (Federal Land adjacency requirements apply). State and local agencies, non-profit organizations, tribes and educational institutions are eligible to apply.
Proposal projects must be described in County Wildfire Preparedness Plans (stand alone CWPPs or plans incorporated into County All Hazard Mitigation Plans are acceptable). Funding from this grant program is provided on a reimbursement basis only – grantees will be required to pay for costs associated with project implementation (including but not limited to vendors/contractors) prior to seeking reimbursement from the Idaho Department of Lands.
Eligibility Criteria
- Eligible applicants include state/local/tribal governments, and 501(c)3 organizations.
- Funding from the HFR grant cannot be used to support general education which is a distinguishing factor between the two grants. For this reason, many cooperators choose to apply for the WSFM grant. The only allowable educational component that the HFR grant authorizes funding for is project specific education, i.e direct participant education
