Opportunity Summary:

The Statewide Noxious Weed Control for Idaho opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L11AS00007) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement focused on natural resources and invasive species work. Its central goal is to help establish and carry out integrated weed management systems that can control or contain undesirable plant species across Idaho, with an emphasis on practical, cost-effective approaches. The program is designed to do more than just treat current infestations; it also targets reducing ongoing spread and preventing new invasions and establishment of noxious weeds. In plain terms, the funding supports coordinated weed control efforts that rely on the most economical, appropriate, and effective methods available, consistent with integrated management principles.

Funding for the opportunity was estimated at a total of $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $1. The announcement anticipated making about 10 awards, which suggests the BLM expected multiple smaller projects or several county-level efforts to be funded under the same statewide objective. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning eligible applicants were not required to provide matching funds to participate, which can make the program more accessible for counties with limited budgets.

Eligibility was limited to county governments, indicating the program was structured to support local public agencies that are directly involved in weed management on the ground and often coordinate with landowners, state partners, and federal land managers. The assistance listing tied to this opportunity is CFDA 15.230 (Invasive and Noxious Plant Management), aligning it with federal invasive plant control and prevention work.

The opportunity was posted on December 17, 2010, and applications were accepted through June 30, 2011. Rather than using a single hard deadline for batch review, the notice stated that applications would be accepted and awarded as appropriate throughout the posted period, meaning proposals could be submitted and potentially funded on a rolling basis as they were reviewed and as funds remained available. The archive date was December 17, 2011, reflecting when the announcement was formally archived after the application window had ended.

For applicants looking for submission details, the announcement pointed users to the “APPLICATIONS” tab for instructions and forms. For technical or access issues with the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Melinda D. Ritacco, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable by phone at 208-373-4018 or by email at melindaritacco@blm.gov.
