The BLM OR-WA department is offering this grant to address the significant threat posed by noxious weeds to public lands in NE Oregon. This grant is for the purpose of preventing land degradation, restoring vital wildlife habitats, and improving recreational opportunities that are currently compromised by weed infestations. Noxious weeds increase wildfire risk, degrade rangelands, and cross jurisdictional boundaries, necessitating a coordinated partnership approach. The objective is to enhance the effectiveness of treatments through monitoring and eradication programs, thereby protecting and restoring the ecological integrity of public lands.
