Opportunity Summary:

The BLM NV Winnemucca District Office Gerlach Cooperative Weed Management Project (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00219) is a Bureau of Land Management discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement to support invasive and noxious weed management work in and around Gerlach, Nevada. The main goal is to partner with a qualified recipient to deliver certified noxious weed control services across public lands and along road rights-of-way in the Gerlach area. BLM is specifically looking to work with the Gerlach Cooperative Weed Management Area (GCWMA), an entity established under Nevada state law that is positioned to organize and carry out large-scale weed control efforts.

The project scope centers on on-the-ground treatment activities to control noxious weeds, with an emphasis on work that is certified and compliant with applicable standards. In addition to treatment, the opportunity highlights the importance of collecting field data and producing mapping products. That means the partner is expected not only to conduct control operations, but also to document where infestations occur, track treatment locations, and support planning and reporting through accurate spatial data.

Funding for the opportunity is up to an estimated total of $90,000, with an award ceiling of $90,000 and an award floor of $8,000. BLM anticipated making one award. The program is tied to CFDA 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management, and it does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can make it easier for an eligible applicant to participate without needing to bring additional non-federal dollars to the table.

Eligibility is limited to state governments. The opportunity was posted and created on August 10, 2011, with an application deadline of August 24, 2011, and it was archived on September 24, 2011. Applicants were directed to retrieve the full announcement instructions and application package via the "APPLICATION" tab in the original posting. For access issues or questions, the listed contact was Gretchen W. Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist, at 775-861-6740 and gretcheneykelbosh@blm.gov (also listed as geykelbosh@blm.gov).
