Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM CA Alturas Cooperative Noxious Weeds Program with Pit River Tribe" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00042) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement intended to support invasive and noxious plant management on public lands in northern California. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the work alongside the recipient rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The overall purpose is to formalize and strengthen ongoing collaboration between the BLM Alturas Field Office (AFO) and the Pit River Tribe (PRT) to inventory, control, and eradicate noxious weeds as defined by California Code of Regulations, Section 4500. The work would take place on BLM-administered public lands within the Alturas Field Office jurisdiction across Modoc, Lassen, Shasta, and Siskiyou counties.
Programmatically, the opportunity is focused on practical weed management outcomes, especially preventing the spread of listed noxious weeds and reducing existing infestations through coordinated field activities. The description emphasizes that the Alturas Field Office and the Pit River Tribe have already been working together for several years on noxious weed control, and this award is intended to formalize those cooperative efforts. That framing suggests continuity of established field operations such as surveying and mapping infestations (inventory), implementing treatment actions (control and eradication), and potentially monitoring treated areas to evaluate effectiveness and prevent reinfestation, all aligned with state-defined noxious weed standards.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity falls under CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 15.230, "Invasive and Noxious Plant Management," and is categorized under Natural Resources. The announcement anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1), and eligibility was limited to federally recognized Native American tribal governments, which aligns with the named partner in the title and description. The posting date and creation date were March 8, 2012, with an application closing date of April 4, 2012. The funding opportunity was later archived on September 30, 2016, indicating it is not an active solicitation now but remains part of the historical grant record.
In terms of funding levels, the estimated total funding amount listed is $300,000. The notice also lists an award ceiling of $3,000 and an award floor of $500; those figures appear inconsistent with the total estimate and may reflect a data-entry or template artifact in the archived record rather than the practical expected size of the single award, especially given the stated total funding. No cost sharing or matching requirement was indicated, meaning the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
For applicants or researchers looking for the original announcement details, the notice referenced Grants.gov as the additional information source. A point of contact was provided for access issues: Leona B. Parker, Grants Management Officer (GMO), at 530-252-5338 and lparker@blm.gov.
