The Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) was awarded a $9,151,333 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service's Cooperative Forestry Assistance program (CFDA 10.664). This multi-year grant, effective from September 22, 2023 to September 21, 2028, supports DNR's efforts to advance the management and conservation of forest resources on non-federal lands across Washington state. Key activities funded include developing genetically improved tree seeds and seedlings, producing and distributing tree seeds and seedlings for reforestation, undertaking landscape restoration initiatives, mitigating invasive species threats, and promoting sustainable forestry practices. As a prime recipient, DNR may also issue sub-awards to support these objectives in partnership with other state agencies, non-profits, universities, and local governments.
