Opportunity Summary:
The Mason Valley and Smith Valley Cooperative Weed Management opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00133) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement to support invasive and noxious weed work on public lands in Nevada's lower Walker River Basin. The core purpose is to partner with a recipient to assess where invasive weeds are occurring and to carry out management actions to reduce or prevent their spread. A key feature of the project is coordination: the BLM is looking for an effort that does not stop at boundary lines, but instead works in cooperation with adjacent landowners and other jurisdictions so that treatments and prevention measures are aligned across the broader landscape in Mason Valley and Smith Valley.
This funding falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management. The announcement anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1). The total estimated funding available was listed as $30,000, with an award floor of $30,000 and an award ceiling of $90,000, indicating the BLM expected an award at least at the $30,000 level and allowed for the possibility of a larger award depending on the final project scope and available funding. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal matching funds to be eligible.
Eligible applicants were limited to government entities: county governments, state governments, special district governments, and city or township governments. The opportunity was posted on May 26, 2015, with an application deadline of July 26, 2015 (the original and current closing dates were the same). The grant was archived on August 26, 2015. Applicants needing the full announcement and application package were directed to use the application materials available through the posting, and the listed contact for access issues or questions was Gretchen Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist, at 775-861-6740 or geykelbosh@blm.gov.
