Integrated control of noxious weeds to minimize impacts and protect natural resources in Oregon.
Overview
Description:
The Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA) and the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB) work together to administer the ODA Noxious Weed Grant Program Lottery funded grant program. Projects are restricted to those that restore, enhance or protect fish and wildlife habitat, watershed functions, native salmonid populations or water quality. Grant applications are for on-the-ground weed control projects and must be for state listed noxious weeds. Applications may include research, survey, outreach or project design if required to complete the control portion of the project.
The implementation of a comprehensive watershed approach to integrated control of noxious weeds is the most effective strategy to minimize impacts and protect natural resources in Oregon from invasive noxious weeds.

An applicant must also have a Federal Employee Identification Number (FEIN).
