Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM WY Converse County Weed and Pest Control District" (Funding Opportunity Number L12AS00274) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding notice focused on invasive and noxious plant management on public lands in Wyoming, specifically within the scope of work associated with Converse County. The central purpose is to support treatment efforts for undesirable plant species in order to protect and maintain key public land resources. The BLM frames the work as directly tied to safeguarding threatened and/or endangered species, conserving native habitats, preserving forage resources relied on by authorized grazing lessees, and improving overall rangeland health. In practical terms, the funding is aimed at on-the-ground weed and pest control actions that reduce the spread and impact of invasive plants and help restore or maintain functional, resilient rangeland ecosystems.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, indicating that the BLM anticipates substantial involvement or coordination with the recipient during project implementation rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The funding activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) associated with it is 15.230, "Invasive and Noxious Plant Management," which aligns with vegetation management, invasive species control, and related conservation outcomes on public lands.
The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $50,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, meaning applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility, though project-specific budget expectations would typically be spelled out in the full announcement. The notice lists an award ceiling and floor of $0, which usually indicates the announcement did not formally specify minimum or maximum award sizes in those fields, even though the estimated total available funding was provided.
Eligibility was limited to county governments, making it specifically relevant to local governmental entities such as the Converse County Weed and Pest Control District or other county-level bodies that carry out weed and pest management programs. The posting and creation date for the opportunity was August 29, 2012, with an original and current closing date of September 9, 2012. The archive date was September 15, 2012, reflecting that the application window was short and the opportunity is no longer open.
For applicants needing the complete instructions and application package, the announcement directed users to download materials via the "APPLICATION" tab in the posting. The listed point of contact was Robert J. Tichac at the BLM, reachable by phone at 307-775-6313 and by email at rtichac@blm.gov, with the note that he could assist if there were difficulties accessing the full announcement electronically.
