Grant Description

The USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Research Station has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for new research projects focused on the Lake Tahoe Basin located within the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California and Nevada. Approximately $3.2 million will be available for research projects. The process is competitive, with 17% of submitted projects selected for funding in the last round. We encourage submission of new proposals to address the following priorities for this RFP: air quality, water quality, forest management and fuels reduction, and climate change. Proposals should be directed toward obtaining information that managers need to solve problems within the Tahoe Basin. Existing datasets and models should be used when possible.
