Opportunity Summary:

The BLM ID Twin Falls District Weed Agreements opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM ID NOI 09 1105) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management discretionary grant initiative focused on invasive and noxious plant management in Idaho. The core purpose is straightforward: support noxious weed control efforts on public lands located within participating county boundaries. The funding is intended to help counties carry out on-the-ground weed management work that protects rangelands, wildlife habitat, watersheds, recreational areas, and other public resources from the spread and impacts of invasive plants.

This opportunity is offered as a Cooperative Agreement, which generally means the BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project compared with a standard grant. In practice, that typically includes coordination on priorities, treatment areas, methods, reporting, and compliance considerations associated with work on federal public lands. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) program listing connected to this opportunity is 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management, indicating that the work aligns with federal invasive species management objectives.

Only county governments are eligible to apply, and the announcement explicitly frames the posting as a notice of intent to award additional funds to county governments for weed control in Idaho. That eligibility restriction signals the BLM is targeting local governmental weed programs and county-led weed management partnerships that can implement control measures within the relevant jurisdictions. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, so applicants are not required by this notice to provide a match to receive federal funds, although counties may still contribute staff time, equipment, or other resources as part of project execution.

The opportunity anticipated up to 5 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $250,022. Timing-wise, the opportunity was posted May 12, 2009, with an original closing date of May 22, 2009, later extended to a current closing date of June 12, 2009. The archive date was July 12, 2009. Applicants were directed to obtain full details through Grants.gov (www.grants.gov). For assistance accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Melinda D. Ritacco, Grants Management Officer, reachable at mritacco@blm.gov.
