Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA FS GLRI CWMA22
The USDA Forest Service Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) Cooperative Weed Management Areas (CWMA) 2022 grant opportunity is a discretionary federal grant program focused on invasive plant management across the Great Lakes Basin. The core purpose is to support on-the-ground and collaborative efforts that detect, prevent, eradicate, and/or control invasive plant species. By reducing the spread and impact of invasive plants, the program aims to strengthen ecological resiliency, improve watershed stability, and protect biological diversity on a wide mix of land ownerships, including Federal, State, other public, and private lands within the Great Lakes Basin.
This opportunity is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Forest Service, and is listed under Funding Opportunity Number "USDA FS GLRI CWMA22." It falls under the Natural Resources funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 10.664. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the program is competitive within the discretionary funding category.
Funding details indicate a maximum award amount (award ceiling) of $50,000 per project, with an anticipated total of about 25 awards. The opportunity was created on September 14, 2022, and the original application deadline was November 15, 2022. In practical terms, this suggests the program is designed to fund relatively targeted, action-oriented projects that can demonstrate clear invasive plant management outcomes, especially when done through coordination among multiple partners or land managers, which is a typical CWMA model.
Eligibility is broadly identified as "Others," with applicants directed to consult the "Additional Information on Eligibility" section in the full notice for clarification. That wording usually signals that eligibility may include a range of entities beyond standard government applicants, potentially encompassing collaborative groups, nonprofits, local or regional partnerships, and other organizations involved in invasive species management, though the definitive answer would be in the official eligibility text.
To help prospective applicants understand program goals and application expectations, the Forest Service scheduled an informational webinar for September 20, 2022, at 10:00 a.m. Central (9:00 a.m. Eastern). The webinar was planned to be recorded for later viewing, and the notice directs applicants to the USFS GLRI CWMA website and a "Webinar Information" document (in the Related Documents section) for connection details. This kind of webinar typically covers program priorities, what a strong proposal looks like, how projects should align with GLRI objectives, and common compliance or reporting expectations.
Overall, this grant opportunity is aimed at practical invasive plant work in the Great Lakes Basin, with an emphasis on measurable improvements to ecosystem health and watershed function. The relatively modest award ceiling and the CWMA framing point toward projects that are locally or regionally coordinated, grounded in field implementation, and designed to deliver visible invasive plant prevention or control benefits across jurisdictional boundaries.Apply for USDA FS GLRI CWMA22
