The Montana Department of Natural Resources & Conservation (DNRC) has been awarded a $770,800 Project Grant from the USDA Forest Service's State & Private Forestry Hazardous Fuel Reduction Program (CFDA 10.697) to perform hazardous fuels reduction work in the Northern Region of Montana. This 5-year project, with a completion date of June 30, 2028, will focus on reducing the undesired effects of large, destructive wildfires by mitigating hazardous fuels on forests, woodlands, shrublands, and grasslands. DNRC has significant experience delivering wildland fire suppression and fuels reduction services across Montana, frequently partnering with federal land management agencies. Under this grant, DNRC will implement fuels reduction projects, update Community Wildfire Protection Plans, and provide forestry education and outreach. DNRC has also awarded a sub-grant to Jobs Now, Inc. (dba Montana West Economic Development), a non-profit organization, to execute the Blacktail/Lakeside/Somers Fuels Reduction Project as part of the broader hazardous fuels mitigation efforts.
