About the company
Sierra Institute For Community And Environment, a nonprofit organization headquartered in Taylorsville, California, acts as a prime recipient of federal grants in forest restoration, watershed management, and environmental remediation, with no contract prime or subcontract footprint in the source data. The organization operates across 38 federal awards (89% prime recipient grants, 11% sub-recipient roles) distributed among fifteen agencies, with combined potential value of $992 thousand against $14.7 million in obligated dollars — a signal of grant awards that have cycled through initial obligation phases.
Sierra Institute's customer base concentrates in natural-resource stewardship agencies. The Department of Agriculture Forest Service R5-Pacific Southwest Region, the Department of the Interior National Park Service Pacific West Region, and the Environmental Protection Agency Region 9 each account for five awards (58% combined coverage of the award count). The Forest Service and NPS dominate both volume and obligated-dollar concentration; EPA Region 9 carries comparable award count through brownfields cooperative agreements. A secondary tier includes the Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation (three awards) and additional Forest Service programs outside R5.
Recent capability work illustrates Sierra Institute's operational scope. A $3.27 million Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act Community Wildfire Defense Grants award (CFDA 10.720) from USDA Forest Service R5, effective August 2026, funds fuels reduction and forest health treatments on private land in Indian Valley, California, running through May 31, 2031. A $600 thousand Wood Utilization Assistance award (CFDA 10.674) from Forest Service R5, effective August 2025, establishes a cross-laminated timber production facility on the Lassen and Plumas National Forests with completion by July 2027. A $1 million Community Wood Energy and Wood Innovation Program grant (CFDA 10.708) effective September 2024 supports mass timber manufacturing capacity. EPA Region 9 awarded a $500 thousand Brownfields Cooperative Agreement (CFDA 66.818) effective October 2023, funding Phase I and Phase II environmental site assessments and cleanup planning in Plumas County through October 2027. NPS Pacific West Region awarded a $261.5 thousand Natural Resource Stewardship cooperative agreement (CFDA 15.944) in August 2025 for forest restoration training and fuel reduction at Lassen Volcanic National Park. Sierra Institute also acts as sub-recipient on grants from the National Forest Foundation, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, and State of California Employment Development Department targeting forest restoration, fish habitat recovery, and youth workforce development.
Activity shows volatility year to year — four awards in 2022, one in 2023, four in 2024, five in 2025, and one in 2026 — with three awards facing ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months. Sierra Institute's grant footprint centers on forest health, wildfire risk reduction, and watershed restoration in Northern California, with secondary work in environmental remediation and community workforce development. The organization operates at the intersection of federal land management (Forest Service, NPS, Bureau of Reclamation) and environmental protection (EPA), executing on-the-ground restoration alongside planning, training, and infrastructure investment.
