Opportunity Information: Apply for L17AS00125
The BLM-WY, Sweetwater County Cheatgrass and Invasive Treatments opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L17AS00125) is a U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement. The project is focused on natural resources work on public lands in Sweetwater County, Wyoming, where BLM is looking to collaborate with a partner to address invasive plant problems, with the main emphasis on cheatgrass. Cheatgrass is highlighted as a priority because it threatens public lands in the county, and the intent of the effort is not only to remove or suppress the invader but also to replace it, implying restoration or re-vegetation steps to help prevent reinfestation and improve long-term resilience.
The opportunity was created on May 25, 2017, with an original application closing date of June 24, 2017. BLM anticipated making one award under this announcement, with a maximum (award ceiling) of $65,000. The funding is associated with CFDA (now Assistance Listing) 15.230, which is the Bureau of Land Management program area used for a range of BLM assistance activities, including on-the-ground resource management projects carried out with partners.
A wide range of applicant types were eligible to apply, reflecting the cooperative and locally driven nature of invasive species work. Eligible applicants included state, county, and city/township governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in that nonprofit category). In practical terms, this eligibility list suggests BLM was open to partnering with local governments, tribes, universities, or conservation and restoration nonprofits that have the capacity to plan and implement invasive species treatments, coordinate stakeholders, and carry out follow-up actions needed for successful replacement of invasives with desirable vegetation.
Overall, the grant can be understood as a targeted, single-award cooperative project intended to reduce cheatgrass and other invasive plants on BLM-managed lands in Sweetwater County and to support restoration actions that help re-establish more appropriate plant communities after treatment. The cooperative agreement structure also signals that BLM expected substantial involvement with the selected partner during planning and implementation, rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back.Apply for L17AS00125
