Opportunity Summary:
The "Invasive Plant Study of Material Sites, Alaska" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM AK NOI09 0007) is a U.S. Department of the Interior program focused on natural resource management, specifically the detection and documentation of nonnative invasive plants in Alaska. The core purpose of the project is to carry out an inventory of gravel pits and other material sites and gather on-the-ground information about whether nonnative invasive plants (often referred to as weeds or NIP) are present at those locations. In practical terms, the work centers on surveying these sites, recording occurrences, and producing usable source data that can support land management decisions and future invasive plant prevention or control efforts.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, meaning the agency expected an active partnership arrangement rather than a simple pass-through grant. The program fell under CFDA 15.231 (Fish, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Resource Management), aligning it with broader conservation and resource stewardship priorities. The announcement anticipated one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $30,000 and an expected award range indicated by an award floor of $25,000. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which reduced the financial burden on the applicant and made the project funding more straightforward to administer.
Eligibility was limited to state governments, so the intended applicants were Alaska state entities or state-level partners positioned to conduct field inventories and coordinate data collection in cooperation with federal land managers. The posting date and creation date were both June 5, 2009, with an application closing date of June 19, 2009, indicating a short proposal window. The opportunity was later archived on August 1, 2009. Applicants were directed to Grants.gov for the full announcement and submission details, and the point of contact for access issues was Sandra S. Smith at s2smith@blm.gov.
