Update on State Funding Opportunities: Historic Infusion of Research Funding

October 7, 2021

SB 155 was recently signed by Governor Newsom. This bill along with SB 170, contains historic infusions of funding for public resource projects, including wildfire & forest resilience, water & drought, climate resilience, sustainable agriculture, and energy.

In total, the entire natural resources budget package contains over $15 Billion for projects over the next three years. A fact sheet can be found here

There will be numerous opportunities for CSU campuses who specialize in this work to apply for research grants through the various state agencies. These opportunities will be evolving over the next few weeks as departments develop grant guidelines. The first solicitations may come as early as December.

Here's some helpful information to pass along to those interested in pursuing these research activities:
