Proposals for forest improvement projects funded by Secure Rural Schools currently being accepted
Olympia, WA, August 1, 2023 — The Olympic National Forest is currently accepting proposals for forest improvement projects, funded by the Secure Rural Schools program, until August 21st.
Project proposals may be submitted by volunteer organizations, interest groups, local governments, and others for projects that meet the requirements of the program.
Due to delays and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic there are multiple years of funding available for forest improvement projects in all four counties on the Peninsula.

Projects must occur on national forest land or benefit the national forest. Projects selected in the past have varied widely including trailhead relocation, noxious weed control projects,
road stabilization, trail maintenance and construction of trail bridges, roadside brush cutting, forest road resurfacing, enhancing wildlife habitat, toilet replacements and portable
toilet rentals, litter and abandoned vehicle removal, herbicide treatments, culvert replacement and youth-oriented conservation crews.
Project proposals must be submitted to the Olympic National Forest by August 21, 2023, to receive consideration for Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act Title II
funds. Projects will be reviewed and recommended by the Forest’s citizen Resource Advisory Committee at their upcoming meeting, currently scheduled for September 18th. For more information
