Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM CO Noxious Weed Management under jurisdiction of BLM Kremmling Field Office, Colorado" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00084) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding opportunity focused on invasive and noxious plant management in Colorado. It was offered under CFDA (now Assistance Listing) 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management, and is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM would likely expect active involvement or collaboration during the project rather than simply issuing funds with minimal agency participation.
The purpose of the opportunity is straightforward and practical: to prevent, contain, and control the spread of noxious weeds within the BLM Kremmling Field Office jurisdiction. In addition to on-the-ground weed management, the announcement emphasizes education and outreach to landowners and public lands users. The intent is not just short-term treatment, but building broader understanding and support for invasive species management, which often depends on coordinated action across property boundaries and consistent practices by recreationists, adjacent landowners, and local stakeholders.
Financially, the opportunity offered an estimated total of $95,000, with an award ceiling of $95,000 and an award floor of $1,500. BLM anticipated making one award. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the barrier to entry for applicants that may not have dedicated match funds, including smaller organizations or local partners.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity as long as it met any conditions described in the full announcement instructions (referenced as being available through the application package). In practice, opportunities like this commonly attract proposals from local governments, conservation districts, nonprofit organizations, weed management entities, and other partners capable of conducting field treatments and public education, but the posting itself indicates the competition was not limited to a specific applicant category.
The timeline shows it was posted and created on April 29, 2014, with an original and current closing date of May 16, 2014, and it was archived on June 30, 2014. Anyone needing access assistance or help with the full announcement materials was directed to contact Ruth A. Raisanen at BLM (303-239-3605, rraisane@blm.gov).
