This $450,000 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service under the State & Private Forestry Hazardous Fuel Reduction Program (CFDA 10.697) supports the Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services Florida in conducting cross-boundary wildfire hazard mitigation activities on non-federal lands in the state. The grant, with a performance period from August 2024 to August 2029, will fund initiatives to reduce hazardous fuel volumes in forests, woodlands, shrublands, and grasslands, in order to minimize the potential for large, destructive wildfires. Specific activities may include implementing fuel treatments, conducting prescribed burns, performing landscape assessments, and developing action plans to improve forest health and community wildfire protection. As the prime recipient, the Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services Florida may collaborate with universities, food banks, local government agencies, and non-profit organizations as sub-awardees to deliver these grant-funded services across the state.
