Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary cooperative agreement opportunity titled "Southern Nevada District Cooperative Weed Assessment and Management" (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00132) under CFDA 15.230, Invasive and Noxious Plant Management. The purpose of the award was to partner with a recipient to assess, monitor, and manage invasive weed occurrences on BLM-managed public lands within the Southern Nevada District, while also working across boundaries with adjacent landowners and other jurisdictions to reduce the spread and persistence of invasive weeds. In practical terms, the project focus centers on coordinated weed assessment and management efforts that help protect native plant communities, wildlife habitat, and overall rangeland and watershed health by identifying problem infestations, prioritizing treatment areas, and supporting collaborative strategies that prevent reinvasion.
This opportunity was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning BLM anticipated substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds, such as coordination, technical input, and alignment with district priorities and land management needs. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the announcement anticipated a single award. The estimated total program funding listed was $2,500, with an award floor of $2,500 and an award ceiling of $250,000, indicating that project scale could range from small, targeted efforts to more comprehensive district-level work depending on the proposal and available funding. No cost sharing or matching requirement was specified, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal match to be eligible, though voluntary leveraging of partner resources is often relevant in cooperative weed management contexts.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications included in the full announcement materials. The opportunity was posted on May 26, 2015, and closed on July 26, 2015, with an archive date of August 26, 2015. Applicants were directed to the full announcement and application package via the "APPLICATION" materials referenced in the listing. For access issues or assistance, the listed point of contact was Gretchen Eykelbosh, Grants and Agreements Specialist, reachable at 775-861-6740 or via email at geykelbosh@blm.gov.
