The New Mexico Forest Industry Association (NMFIA) is seeking proposals to develop wood energy projects in cluster regions of the state. The focal areas include: Rio Grande Water Fund (RGWF) area (Rio Grande, Rio Chama and their forested tributaries and headwaters), Chama area (embedded within RGWF), Southcentral NM, the Gila and A/S national forests cross jurisdictional area, and other potential opportunity areas within New Mexico. Funding will be awarded through a competitive process administered by NM SWEET. NMFIA plans to award multiple contracts as a result of this Request for Proposals (RFP). NMFIA has approximately $91,000 currently available for this request.

The U.S. Forest Service requests proposals to substantially expand and accelerate wood energy and wood products markets throughout the United States to support forest management needs on National Forest System and other forest lands. This Request for Proposals focuses on the following priorities: Reduce hazardous fuels and improve forest health on National Forest System and other forest lands. Reduce costs of forest management on all land types. Promote economic and environmental health of communities. Funding will be awarded in two separate grant categories:

Reclamation is inviting States, Tribes, irrigation districts, water districts and other organizations with water or power delivery to apply for a funding opportunity to cost-share on projects that conserve and use water more efficiently, increase the use of renewable energy and improve energy efficiency. The projects should support water sustainability in the west.

Despite our name, Tamarisk Coalition’s 12th Annual Conference is not just about tamarisk… Come learn about the latest advancements; from riparian restoration case studies, success stories, regional riparian management initiatives and challenges of funding, planning, and implementing riparian restoration, to exploring novel tools, techniques, and research. Through concurrent sessions, panels, Q&A, and field trips, you will learn new information about wildlife and habitat, biological control, biomass removal/use, native plants, streambank bioengineering, and more.

This full-day workshop is anchored by restoration specialist, Bill Zeedyk who owns and operates a small consulting business specializing in the restoration of wetland and riparian habitats. Bill is familiar to Quivira audiences as the innovator of successful riparian restoration methods based on his philosophy of “thinking like a creek” and using low-tech, hands-on methods and native materials. He will share his latest ideas and new restoration strategies for adapting to hotter and drier conditions developing across the Southwest.

Join Salt River Project, event partners and government and business leaders at the conference. Speakers include the National Forest Foundation's President Bill Possiel, Vice Chairman Craig R. Barrett, and Marcus Selig, Director, Colorado Program.
