About the company
Sierra Streams Institute, doing business as Friends Of Deer Creek, is a tax-exempt nonprofit based in Nevada City, California, that acts as a federal grant recipient focused on forest management, wildfire mitigation, watershed restoration, and environmental education across California's Sierra Nevada and foothill regions. The organization operates exclusively as a prime recipient across federal grant programs; it does not hold federal contracts or sit on contracting vehicles.
Sierra Streams Institute's capability portfolio centers on fuel reduction and forest management activities supporting wildland fire mitigation, riparian restoration, watershed health and clean-water communication, and place-based environmental education integrating Indigenous knowledge with Western science. Representative work includes a $600,000 Cooperative Agreement from the Bureau of Land Management (CFDA 15.228, Wildland Fire Fuels Management and Community Fire Assistance Program) effective September 2025 through June 2028, funding forest management and fuel load reduction across 323.9 acres in the Yuba River Watershed with a 70% fuel-load reduction target, plus community fire-wise education for over 15,000 residents. The organization also holds a $100,000 EPA Region 9 Project Grant (July 2024 through February 2026) for environmental education focused on watershed health and clean water in Nevada County and Yuba County, including development of a watershed communication toolkit for 4th–8th grade students. A September 2024 National Science Foundation Project Grant supported partnership development and planning for place-based, intergenerational STEM learning experiences integrating Indigenous research frameworks across four Sierra Nevada organizations.
Customer concentration spans six distinct federal agencies. The Bureau of Reclamation, National Science Foundation, and the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (under Department of the Air Force Materiel Command) each anchor two awards; the Bureau of Land Management, EPA, and other Interior agencies round out the active set. Activity is modest — one to two awards per year in recent years, with nine total grants generating $4.4 million in combined obligated dollars since 2014. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete opportunity. The organization engages local contractors and partner nonprofits as subrecipients to execute implementation and collaborative work.
