Opportunity Summary:

Meadow Valley Wash Noxious Weed Control Phase 2 is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding opportunity focused on continuing noxious weed inventory, monitoring, and treatment on public lands within the Meadow Valley Wash watershed. The effort is tied to a Round 9 Southern Nevada Public Lands Management Act (SNPLMA) project awarded to the BLM Ely District Office, with the core purpose of reducing invasive, harmful weeds using an integrated pest management approach. By supporting ongoing field inventory and treatment work across the watershed, the project is intended to protect and restore natural conditions and improve the overall ecological health and resilience of the Meadow Valley Wash system.

A key driver for the project is habitat improvement for two federally listed species: the desert tortoise and the southwestern willow flycatcher. Noxious weeds can displace native vegetation, alter fire regimes, reduce habitat quality, and affect water and soil conditions, all of which can undermine sensitive wildlife habitat. This project continues prior work rather than starting from scratch, emphasizing sustained monitoring and follow-up treatments that are typically necessary for long-term weed control at a watershed scale.

The award is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning the recipient would be expected to work closely with the BLM rather than operating entirely independently. The BLM specifically notes that the cooperative agreement will be made with an appropriate partner that is authorized to carry out integrated pest management activities. Eligible applicants are limited to government entities, including state governments, county governments, and special district governments.

Funding is structured as a single expected award totaling 800,000 dollars, with the award floor and ceiling both set at 800,000 dollars, indicating the agency anticipated one project at a fixed amount rather than a range of award sizes. No cost sharing or matching is required. The opportunity falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.235 (Southern Nevada Public Land Management).

Key administrative dates show the announcement was posted on June 1, 2011, with an original and current closing date of June 8, 2011, and an archive date of June 30, 2011. The funding opportunity number is L11AS00106. Additional details were available through Grants.gov at the time of posting.

Bell, Grants Management Specialist, reachable at 775-861-6435 and by email at eddiebell@blm.gov (also listed as ebell@blm.gov).
