Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "BLM ID Noxious Weed Control Pocatello Field Office Area, Idaho" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00027) is a discretionary Bureau of Land Management (BLM) cooperative agreement focused on invasive and noxious plant management in the Pocatello Field Office area of Idaho. Its main goal is straightforward: to control existing noxious weed infestations, reduce their spread across the landscape, and prevent new invasions from becoming established. The program emphasizes using weed control approaches that are economical while still being appropriate for the site and effective over time, which typically means selecting methods based on local conditions, weed species present, and the likelihood of reinfestation.

This opportunity falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 15.230, "Invasive and Noxious Plant Management." The BLM anticipated making up to three awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $200,000. Individual awards were expected to range from a floor of $7,000 to a ceiling of $40,000. The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that BLM planned to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as coordinating priorities, approving work plans, providing technical guidance, or aligning projects with BLM land management objectives.

Eligibility for this announcement was limited to state governments, meaning the intended applicants were state-level agencies or entities able to apply on behalf of state government programs. The listing indicates there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award, although applicants could still propose leveraging other resources if they wished.

Key dates show the opportunity was posted on April 19, 2010, with a closing date of May 1, 2010. The archive date was April 19, 2011, indicating it was a time-limited solicitation with a relatively short application window.
