Program details

How it works

The State Hazard Mitigation Plan appendix describes the Community Wildfire Hazard Mitigation Assistance Grant Program as a USDA Forest Service-funded program administered by the New Jersey Forest Fire Service. It reimburses homeowners or community applicants for NJ Forest Fire Service-approved projects that help meet state fire prevention objectives.

What the money covers

The source describes the program as supporting wildfire hazard reduction projects and says funding was delivered through a 50/50 cost-share program. It does not list every eligible home-hardening activity on the referenced page.

Amounts and matching

The program provides reimbursement of up to $5,000.

Timing and deadlines

The appendix does not state whether the program is currently open, but it documents the program as an existing state mitigation program. Because the source is a mitigation-plan appendix rather than the live application page, current availability should be confirmed on the Forest Fire Service program page before applying.
