The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this grant to advance the cooperative management of invasive plants on Federal and adjacent public and private lands. This grant aims to overcome the challenges posed by widely scattered and often inaccessible Federal land parcels. It seeks to leverage the established positive relationships between local government entities—including counties, cities, and special districts—and adjacent landowners. The funding is intended to support successful, landscape-scale noxious weed management efforts that span multiple jurisdictions, building upon a proven history of collaborative approaches. This initiative will facilitate effective invasive plant control across the region, enhancing overall land health.
