Opportunity Summary:
The Integrated Noxious Weed Management Program in New Mexico is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding opportunity focused on building and carrying out coordinated, statewide efforts to control plants designated as noxious or invasive across New Mexico weed management areas. The central aim is to set up an integrated program that does four things in a practical, on-the-ground way: (1) inventory and map infestations so agencies and partners know what is present and where, (2) manage existing problem populations using integrated weed management approaches, (3) prevent new introductions and slow the spread into uninfested or lightly infested areas, and (4) eradicate listed species when feasible, especially where infestations are small or newly detected. A major component of the program is public education, with the intent of helping residents, land managers, and local partners recognize listed noxious species and understand why early reporting and prevention matter.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, meaning recipients should expect active involvement and coordination with BLM during planning, implementation, reporting, and potentially in technical decision-making. The funding activity category is environmental, and the opportunity aligns with the CFDA program number 15.230 (Invasive and Noxious Plant Management). The announcement anticipates making about five awards, with an estimated total program funding amount of $1,000,000. Individual awards are expected to range from a minimum (floor) of $2,500 up to a maximum (ceiling) of $200,000, allowing for both smaller targeted projects and larger multi-area efforts depending on scope and partner capacity. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, which generally means applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible, though partners often still leverage in-kind support or other resources to strengthen a proposal.
Eligible applicants are limited to government entities, specifically state governments, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, city or township governments, county governments, and similar public-sector partners. This indicates BLM is aiming to fund organizations that can coordinate across jurisdictions, work with established weed management areas, and support long-term stewardship across public and nearby lands. Because invasive plant problems rarely stop at a fence line, the program emphasis on integrated management suggests projects that connect inventory, treatment, follow-up monitoring, and prevention measures (like sanitation practices, outreach to recreation users, or coordination with road departments and adjacent landowners) are consistent with the intent of the announcement.
Key dates in the notice show the opportunity was posted February 8, 2011, with multiple referenced closing dates earlier in March 2011 and a later extension. The final current closing date listed is April 6, 2011 at 4:00 p.m. Mountain Time, and the archive date is April 30, 2011. The funding opportunity number is L11AS00020, and the official title is Integrated Noxious Weed Management Program in New Mexico. For applicants who could not access the full announcement package online at the time, the listed contact was Janet Yvonne Huff, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 505-761-8941 or by email at jhuff@blm.gov.
