The State Fire Assistance grant program (also known as the Western Wildland Urban Interface Grant Program) focuses on hazard fuels reduction, information and education, and community wildfire protection planning. Fire departments, local governments, educational institutions, and non-profit organizations qualify.
Project proposals for the 2018 grant cycle are due by August 18, 2017.
Applications received by the due date will be evaluated for submittal to the Western States Fire Manager grant process where they will compete with proposals from other states across the western United States. Funding for successful projects is expected by mid 2018 to support project implementation beginning that fall.
