Noxious Weed Control and Eradication Program Law and Legal Definition
The Noxious Weed Control and Eradication Program (“program”) is a federal program that provides financial and technical assistance to control or eradicate noxious weeds. It is established pursuant to 7 USCS § 7782. The Secretary of Agriculture (“Secretary”) makes grants for the purpose of providing weed management entities for the control or eradication of noxious weeds. Under this Program, the Secretary also enters into agreements with weed management entities to provide financial and technical assistance for the control or eradication of noxious weeds.
In determining the amount of a grant to a weed management entity, the Secretary considers the following:
1. the severity or potential severity of the noxious weed problem;
2. the extent to which the federal funds will be used to leverage non-federal funds to address the noxious weed problem;
3. the extent to which the weed management entity has made progress in addressing the noxious weeds problem; and
4. other factors that the Secretary determines to be relevant.
