Opportunity Summary:
The BLM ID Yellowstar Idaho Hawksbeard Study grant opportunity is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM), U.S. Department of the Interior funding notice supporting research on invasive plant management in Idaho, specifically focused on yellow starthistle within canyon grassland ecosystems. The central purpose of the project is to evaluate how biological control agents affect yellow starthistle populations and to document the broader ecological outcomes that follow when the invasive species loses competitive strength. Alongside measuring direct impacts on the target weed, the study also examines how native vegetation responds as yellow starthistle pressure decreases, including outcomes associated with both currently established biocontrol agents and additional agents that may be introduced or considered in the future. A key deliverable is the reporting of source data and analysis that summarize general trends observed through the work, which will be provided to the BLM to inform ongoing and future land management decisions.
From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity was issued as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category. It was associated with CFDA number 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management, and anticipated a single award. The total funding amount was set at 10,000 dollars, with both the award floor and ceiling listed at 10,000 dollars, indicating a single fixed-size award rather than a range of possible funding levels. No cost sharing or matching requirement was specified. Although the eligible applicant category is listed as state governments, the eligibility notes clarify that this notice of intent identified funds to be awarded to the University of Idaho to continue an existing project, meaning it functioned as a continuation funding action rather than an open, competitive solicitation.
The timeline for the posting shows it was made available on May 21, 2009, with the original and current closing date both set for June 5, 2009, and an archive date of July 5, 2009. Additional details were available through Grants.gov at the time of posting. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Melinda D. Ritacco, Grants Management Officer, reachable via email at mritacco@blm.gov.
