The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service awarded a $420,000 Project Grant under the Cooperative Forestry Assistance program (CFDA 10.664) to the Montana Department of Natural Resources & Conservation (DNRC). This grant, awarded on September 20, 2023, will support the "MONTANA CONSERVATION SEEDING NURSERY" project over the next 3 years, with a completion date of September 30, 2026. The Cooperative Forestry Assistance program provides funding for activities that advance the management and conservation of forest resources on non-federal land across the United States. Through this grant, DNRC will undertake a range of forestry-related initiatives, such as developing genetically improved tree seeds and seedlings, producing and distributing tree seeds and seedlings for reforestation, and promoting sustainable forestry practices across the state of Montana. As the state agency responsible for managing Montana's natural resources, DNRC frequently partners with federal agencies like the USDA Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Department of the Interior on hazardous fuels mitigation, forest restoration, and other conservation projects.
