Opportunity Summary:
The Cooperative Noxious Weeds Program Alturas (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00165) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category. The purpose of the opportunity was to support on-the-ground work to address invasive and noxious plant problems through coordinated surveying and treatment efforts. The program focused on practical field activities that help land managers understand where noxious weeds are located, how extensive infestations are, and what control or eradication approaches should be used to reduce their spread and impacts.
Under this opportunity, the recipient was expected to carry out survey and inventory work alongside control or eradication methods. The specific mix of activities was not one-size-fits-all; instead, it was to be determined by the recipient's Project Coordinator in consultation with the BLM Noxious Weed Coordinator. This setup indicates a collaborative implementation model where BLM would be actively involved in planning and oversight, which is typical of cooperative agreements. A key compliance requirement was that any herbicides applied as part of control efforts had to come from BLM's current list of approved materials, ensuring treatments align with agency safety, environmental, and regulatory standards.
Funding was limited to a single expected award, with an estimated total program funding of $150,000. The award ceiling was $150,000, and the award floor was $500, suggesting the agency was prepared to fund a substantial primary project but left room for smaller-scale proposals if appropriate. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive, which can lower the barrier to participation for smaller organizations.
Eligibility was directed to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status. While the listing also notes "unrestricted" eligibility in a general sense, the specific eligibility information clarifies that qualified nonprofits were the intended applicant pool. The opportunity was associated with CFDA number 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management, tying it to a broader federal assistance program area focused on preventing, controlling, and managing invasive plant species on public lands and in surrounding landscapes.
The posting and application timeline was short. The opportunity was posted on July 12, 2010, with an original and final closing date of July 21, 2010, and it was archived on July 31, 2010. Interested applicants were directed to Grants.gov for full announcement materials and application submission details. For access issues or questions, the contact listed was Leona B. Parker, Grants Management Officer, at 530-252-5338 or lparker@blm.gov.
