The BLM OR/WA is offering the Ready Reserve Program grant to enhance the capabilities of rural and volunteer fire departments (RFDs) involved in wildland fire suppression. This grant is for the critical purpose of providing funding to non-federal cooperators, specifically RFDs, to support comprehensive wildland firefighter training. The initiative aims to improve their capacity to protect rural communities and contribute effectively to extinguishing wildland fires, particularly those near lands managed by the Department of the Interior. Following the submission of proposals in Spring 2010, successful applicants have been notified and are now formally invited to submit their funding applications to the BLM OR/WA.
