Opportunity Summary:

The "Invasive and Noxious Plant Management" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM CA NOI 09 2007) is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, focused on natural resource management. It is designed to support coordinated work in Siskiyou County, California, specifically partnering with the Siskiyou County Department of Agriculture to strengthen an early detection and rapid response (EDRR) program and to carry out practical, on-the-ground actions that control noxious weeds, reduce their spread, and prevent new invasions from becoming established. The central idea is to stop invasive plants early where possible, and where they are already present, to manage them in a way that limits expansion and protects both public and private lands.

The project emphasis is on using the most economical, appropriate, and effective weed control methods available. In practice, that typically means selecting control strategies that match the species and site conditions and that can be sustained over time, rather than relying on one-size-fits-all actions. The work scope explicitly spans both private and public lands, reflecting how invasive plants spread across boundaries and why coordinated county-level response is important. The announcement indicates that the recipient should be the County Agriculture entity, reinforcing that this effort is intended to be led through county government agricultural programs and their existing weed management infrastructure.

Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which generally implies closer involvement and coordination with the federal agency than a standard grant. The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $150,000. The award ceiling is $150,000 and the award floor is $1,000, indicating flexibility in the final award size while still signaling the likely target amount. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which lowers the barrier for eligible applicants by not requiring local matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.

Eligibility is limited to county governments, aligning with the stated expectation that the County Agriculture office would serve as the recipient and implementer. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.230 under the title "Invasive and Noxious Plant Management," which is the federal assistance listing used for tracking and reporting the assistance program. Key dates show the opportunity was posted and created on July 8, 2009, with an original and current closing date of July 30, 2009, and an archive date of August 5, 2009, meaning it was a time-limited solicitation that is no longer active.
