Summary

Overview

Urban Tree Canopy Analysis Grant The Urban Forestry Division (UFD) within the District of Columbia Department of Transportation (DDOT) is soliciting detailed proposals from organizations to conduct an Urban Tree Canopy (UTC) analysis. The project is funded by the United States Forest Service through its Cooperative Forestry Assistance program. The applicant will compile and provide a comprehensive UTC assessment report for DDOT-UFD. The report will estimate the current extent of the District of Columbia’s UTC and will incorporate data from this and previous studies. Previous UTC analyses were conducted in 2006, 2011, 2016, and 2020. The report will highlight programs, initiatives, trends, opportunities, and ongoing challenges to achieving and sustaining the District’s 40% canopy goal. The report will include a discussion on the results as well as broad recommendations. Interested local government, non-governmental, and community-based organizations may apply for Fiscal Year 2026 UTC analysis funds. Individual proposals should not exceed $100,000.
