Opportunity Summary:

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding opportunity titled "BLM OR WA Invasive Plant Management, Lakeview Resource Area, Oregon" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00309) is a discretionary cooperative agreement aimed at reducing the spread and impacts of invasive and noxious weeds on public lands in and around the Lakeview Resource Area in Oregon. The central purpose is to address the immediate and wide-ranging threats posed by noxious weeds, including higher wildfire risk, reduced recreational access and quality, degraded wildlife habitat, and declining rangeland health. Because invasive plants and their impacts do not stop at property lines, the opportunity emphasizes coordinated work across jurisdictional boundaries to improve treatment success and long-term outcomes.

The program is designed to strengthen and operationalize partnerships among federal agencies, state and local governments, and private landowners. Rather than focusing only on isolated treatment sites, the approach encourages cooperative, landscape-oriented weed management that can align priorities, share resources, and target infestations strategically. Project activities supported under this opportunity include weed inventories and monitoring (to find, map, and track infestations), on-the-ground noxious weed treatments (typically integrated management approaches appropriate to the site and species), and restoration work to reestablish desirable vegetation and reduce the likelihood of reinvasion. In addition to field work, the opportunity also supports educational outreach, reflecting the reality that prevention, early detection, and public cooperation are often as important as treatment itself.

This funding falls under CFDA 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management, and the BLM anticipated making one award. While the estimated total funding listed for the opportunity is $500,000, the individual award size is constrained by an award floor of $1 and an award ceiling of $20,000, indicating the assistance is intended to fund a defined, manageable scope of work within the Lakeview Resource Area rather than a large standalone program. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which can lower barriers for eligible organizations to participate and can make it easier to propose focused projects that fit BLM priorities without needing to assemble separate matching funds.

Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally signals that BLM expects to have substantial involvement during project performance, such as coordinating priorities, approving work plans, integrating the project with ongoing BLM operations, or collaborating on implementation and reporting. The opportunity was posted and created on August 12, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 4, 2014, and it was archived on August 11, 2015.
