Details

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service is offering the Landscape Scale Restoration Grant Program for Tribes. This program aims to support collaborative and science-based restoration projects on priority forest landscapes. Eligible applicants include Native American tribal governments and organizations. The deadline for applications is 26 January 2027. The Landscape Scale Restoration (LSR) Grant Program encourages the restoration of priority forest landscapes through collaborative, high-impact projects. These projects should leverage public and private resources and align with science-based restoration strategies such as Tribal Forest Plans or State Forest Action Plans. The program focuses on reducing wildfire risk, enhancing fish and wildlife habitats, improving water quality, and mitigating invasive species. This program offers a crucial opportunity for Native American tribes to engage in significant restoration projects that address ecological priorities and enhance the resilience of forest landscapes. By supporting collaborative approaches, the program fosters partnerships that can sustain long-term environmental and community benefits. What is the maximum award amount per project? The maximum award amount per project is $300,000. What is the required cost-sharing ratio? Applicants must match the federal grant funds 1:1 with non-federal sources. Are Indian trust lands eligible for projects? Yes, Indian trust lands are eligible as they fall under the definition of “non-industrial private forest land.” What is the deadline for application submission? The deadline for application submission is 26 January 2027, by 11:59 p.m. Eastern. Can tribal organizations apply independently? Tribal organizations can apply with a letter of support from a federally recognized Tribe. Eligible applicants should carefully review the official guidelines and prepare their applications according to the provided instructions. For additional resources and detailed requirements, refer to the USDA Forest Service Landscape Scale Restoration Grants web page and the NOFO document under the “Related Documents” tab.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this forestry & wildlife opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.

  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
