The Nevada Division of Forestry received a $3.2 million project grant award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service Research Service Rocky Mountain Research Station. The grant funding supports the Consolidated Forestry Programs grant under the Cooperative Forestry Assistance federal grant program (CFDA #10.664).
Through June 2026, grant funds will support the Nevada Division of Forestry's delivery of urban and community forestry, forest stewardship, forest health, and national and rural forestry programs across Nevada. These programs aim to advance forest resource management and conservation on nonfederal rural and forest lands through activities such as producing and distributing genetically improved tree seeds and seedlings, promoting the use of cost-effective forest management techniques, and providing technical assistance to private forest landowners. The grant award aligns with the Cooperative Forestry Assistance program's objective of assisting states in their forestry work.
