The Bureau of Land Management (BLM-AK) is offering this grant to support the Anchorage Cooperative Weed Management Area (CWMA). This grant is for the critical purpose of protecting Alaska from noxious, invasive weeds through integrated pest management. The Anchorage CWMA is a collaborative effort involving federal, state, and local land managers, alongside private citizens. This initiative addresses the significant threat posed by non-native invasive plant species, which have been identified in areas such as the BLM Campbell Tract Facility and adjacent Bicentennial Park within Anchorage. Effective management of these invasive plants necessitates a unified approach, as weeds disregard jurisdictional boundaries, making stakeholder cooperation essential for success.

| Description: | The Anchorage Cooperative Weed Management Area (CWMA) is a group of federal, state, and local land managers, together with private citizens, who have agreed to work together to protect Alaska from the threat of noxious, invasive weeds. BLMâ¿¿s Anchorage Field Office was one of the charter members of this organization. The BLM Campbell Tract Facility (CTF) is located within the city limits of Anchorage, Alaska and is adjacent to the Municipality of Anchorageâ¿¿s Bicentennial Park. Numerous non-native invasive plant species have been found in both of these area, as well as throughout the Anchorage municipality. Invasive plant management is most effective when all stakeholders within a geographical area work together, since weeds to do acknowledge jurisdictional boundaries. |
