Opportunity Information: Apply for W9127N2420004

This grant opportunity, titled "Management of Undesirable Plants on USACE Lands, John Day - Willow Creek Project, Benton County, WA" (Funding Opportunity Number W9127N2420004), is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Portland District. The award will be made as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient is expected to work in coordination with USACE rather than simply receiving funds to operate independently. The work supports an agriculture-related public purpose and is listed under CFDA 12.012.

The focus of the project is the management of "undesirable plants" (commonly understood in this context as noxious weeds and other invasive or regulated problem plant species) on federal lands managed by USACE. Specifically, the location is the John Day Project, Willow Creek area, in Benton County, Washington, under the oversight of USACE Natural Resource Management staff. The recipient will provide professional services that help USACE carry out its responsibilities for controlling and managing these undesirable plant species on the project lands.

This cooperative agreement is being pursued under the authority of the Federal Noxious Weed Act of 1974 (7 U.S.C. 2814), which is the cited legal basis for partnering with state-level entities that administer or enforce noxious weed and undesirable plant laws. Because of that statutory basis, eligibility is limited in a practical sense: the intended recipient must be a state department of agriculture or another state agency (or a political subdivision of the state) that is responsible for administering or implementing the state’s undesirable plants or noxious weed laws. While the eligible applicant categories listed include state governments as well as certain local government types (county, city or township, and special district governments), the description makes clear that the partner must have the official role and legal responsibility connected to undesirable plants laws, which typically points to a state agriculture department or an equivalent state-designated authority.

In terms of funding, USACE expects to make one award, with an award ceiling of $50,000. The opportunity was created on March 28, 2024, and the original closing date for submissions was May 3, 2024. The funding is intended to support on-the-ground and programmatic assistance for undesirable plant management on USACE-managed lands at the specified project area, carried out in close collaboration with USACE Portland District staff.
