Hello everyone,

I just wanted to pass along this potential funding opportunity. Especially if you know of anyone interested in studying biocontrols.

Thanks,

Subject: USFS Washington Office - Request for FY21 Forest Health Protection Special Project Proposals (Due 10/16/20)

(Please share widely with interested parties.)

Dear all -

The Washington Office of the US Forest Service is requesting fiscal year 2021 proposals for Special Project programs administered by Forest Health Protection (FHP) within State and Private Forestry.  Program guidelines and proposal instructions for the FHP Special Project categories are available on the National FHP Grants webpage https://www.fs.fed.us/foresthealth/working-with-us/<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fs.fed.us%2Fforesthealth%2Fworking-with-us%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cdeggen%40pa.gov%7C40e107b2e3dc41b5da7808d84dd55586%7C418e284101284dd59b6c47fc5a9a1bde%7C0%7C0%7C637344925947293165&sdata=QnxkYP5qPgrKB9xgsJ6DKsm%2FiqiAy6ZosjmWS0dV9Iw%3D&reserved=0>

Proposals for the following four Special Project program categories are due October 16, 2020 to the Regional Special Project Program Representative. The Eastern Region Program Representatives will accept proposals for projects in the District of Columbia and the twenty Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, and New England States.

1.       Forest Health Monitoring Program, Evaluation Monitoring (EM) - A component of the Forest Health Monitoring Program designed to determine the extent, severity, and cause of undesirable changes in forest health.

Eastern Region Program Representative: Stephen Burr, stephen.burr at usda.gov<mailto:stephen.burr at usda.gov>

2.       Special Technology Development Program (STDP) - A program to help bring research results into practice by developing cutting edge technologies and field operation methods that provide field specialists with tools to restore and protect America's forests.

Eastern Region Program Representative: John Kyhl, john.f.kyhl at usda.gov<mailto:john.f.kyhl at usda.gov>

3.       Biological Control of Invasive Forest Pests (BCIFP) - A program to develop technologies for expanding the use of biological control on invasive species that impact forests and grasslands.

Eastern Region Program Representative: John Kyhl, john.f.kyhl at usda.gov<mailto:john.f.kyhl at usda.gov>

4.       Forest Service-Pesticide Impact Assessment Program (FSPIAP) - A program to evaluate the benefits and impacts of pesticide use in forest environments.

Eastern Region Program Representative: John Kyhl, john.f.kyhl at usda.gov<mailto:john.f.kyhl at usda.gov>
The Washington Office will also be requesting fiscal year 2021 proposals for the Emerging Pest program, to be due March 1, 2021. Additional information for the Emerging Pest Project program is expected prior to the due date.

  1.  Emerging Pests - A program to respond to needs at the Regional level that represents a new threat to forest health, shows signs of increased risk or of sudden impact, has moved to a new and unexpected location, or is exhibiting a new behavior.  It is not intended to support existing National program areas or supplement special funding programs (FSPIAP, BCIP, EM, STDP).

The Washington Office's FHP Special Project timeline and submission process for fiscal year 2021 is as follows:

Special Project Program Submission Timelines for Fiscal Year 2021
