The Forest Service is offering this one LSR non-federal lands Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) which replaces the three regional (Southern/IITF, Western, and Northeast/Midwestern) NOFOs. The purpose of the Landscape Scale Restoration (LSR) Program is to encourage collaborative, science-based restoration of priority forest landscapes. This competitive grant program supports collaborative high impact projects that lead to measurable outcomes on priority forest landscapes, leverage public and private resources, and further priorities identified in a State Forest Action Plan or equivalent science-based restoration strategy. Proposals should reduce wildfire risk, improve fish and wildlife habitats, maintain or improve water quality and watershed function, and/or mitigate invasive plants, insects, and disease. Eligible Lands : LSR projects must be conducted on rural non-industrial private forest land, and/or rural state or local government forest land. See NOFO for more definitions. For the purposes of this program, “rural” is defined as all areas outside Census places greater than 50,000 people according to the latest United States Census. Please use the LSR Project Planning Tool (Project Eligibility) to confirm if your proposed project location is eligible within this definition. Individual Award Funding : Minimum: $100,000 per project. $50,000 per project for the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, the Freely Associated States of the Republic of Palau (Palau), the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Maximum: $300,000 for single-state projects; $600,000 for multi-state projects. Cost Share Required : Grant recipients must match (cost share) the Federal grant funds 1:1 with non-Federal sources. State Forester Sponsorship : All applications except those submitted by federally recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations require the relevant State Forester(s) to sponsor the project. Each State Forester may sponsor/participate in up to a total of 10 applications, including up to 5 single-state applications and up to 5 multi-state applications. For Tribes and Tribal organizations : Federally Recognized Tribes are limited to 2 applications for this NOFO. There is a separate national LSR NOFO for federally recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations: USDA-FS-2026-LSR-TRIBAL. Federally recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations may apply to either or both NOFOs but cannot receive more than one award for the same scope of work. For additional information and requirements, please refer to the NOFO …
Get told when something changes
Most institutions find out about a call with three weeks left. We write when something opens, moves or closes that fits what you work on, with the deadline, the fit and the funder's own exclusion clauses quoted. Nothing in a quiet week. Free, and one click to leave.
Starting from the programme you are reading: USDA-FS — change it below if you like.
Leave the second box empty and you get whatever opened or changed recently, closing soonest. Fill it in and it ranks against your words instead: that is the difference between a list and a shortlist.
Scientific Network Management will send you the current list for these terms, and after that only what changes: a call that opens, a deadline that shifts, a clause that rules you out. Nothing is sent when nothing has moved. One click to stop, in every message.
One confirmation email and nothing else until you click it. No tracking pixels, no sharing, one click to unsubscribe.
Of every 100 Horizon Europe proposals
A funding strategy reads your institution's own published record against the calls that are open, and says in writing which are worth the year and which to decline, with the reason for each.
Scientific Network Management, the grant-writing practice behind this radar: 13 years of EU-funded research projects, and a founder who has served as Key Expert and Team Leader on two EU-funded technical assistance contracts establishing biotechnology centres in Türkiye.

No obligation, and nothing here is conditional on using us: searching the calls stays free and asks for nothing either way.
