Opportunity Information: Apply for W9127N2420001
This opportunity is a small, targeted cooperative agreement from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Portland District, focused on managing undesirable plants (often referred to as noxious weeds or invasive/problem vegetation) on federal lands associated with the Willamette Valley Project in Oregon. The work supports the Natural Resource Management functions tied to thirteen USACE dams in the project area, specifically across Lane, Benton, Linn, and Marion Counties. In practical terms, the agreement is meant to bring in professional services that help USACE prevent, control, or otherwise manage plant species that are regulated or considered harmful under state undesirable plant laws and federal noxious weed authorities.
The legal basis for using this cooperative agreement is the Federal Noxious Weed Act of 1974 (7 U.S.C. 2814). That matters because it also narrows who can receive the award: the recipient must be a state department of agriculture or another state agency (or a political subdivision of the state) that has responsibility for administering or implementing the state laws dealing with undesirable plants. While the listing also indicates eligibility for state, county, and local governments, the description makes clear that the recipient needs to be an entity that actually has the statutory role for undesirable plant law implementation, which typically points to a state agriculture department or a closely related state-level program. The intent is essentially to partner with the government body that already has the authority, expertise, and systems for weed law enforcement and coordinated weed management, rather than contracting with a private firm.
From a program standpoint, the project sits in the Natural Resources activity area (CFDA/Assistance Listing 12.012) and is framed around land stewardship on USACE-managed properties. The assistance would likely involve coordinated weed management activities such as surveying and mapping infestations, prioritizing treatment areas, advising on integrated vegetation management approaches, and supporting compliance with relevant state and federal requirements. Because this is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, USACE generally expects a higher level of federal involvement than with a typical pass-through award, meaning the Corps will likely coordinate closely on planning, priorities, and deliverables.
The funding profile is modest. The award ceiling is $30,000, with USACE expecting to make one award. The opportunity was created on January 17, 2024, with an original closing date of February 16, 2024. The funding instrument is explicitly identified as a cooperative agreement under a discretionary opportunity, and the issuing agency is the USACE Portland District. Overall, it is best read as a limited-scope partnership designed to leverage state-level undesirable plant expertise and statutory responsibilities to help manage invasive or otherwise regulated plants on specific USACE lands tied to the Willamette Valley Project’s dam sites.Apply for W9127N2420001
