Opportunity Summary:
The Bighorn Basin Rockshelter Project is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Wyoming State Office grant opportunity focused on cultural resource management in the Bighorn Basin of Wyoming. The intent is to support field and preservation work involving rockshelters and associated archaeological or historic sites. The core activities described are locating rockshelters, formally recording them, evaluating their significance and condition, and carrying out stabilization work where needed to protect these resources from further deterioration. The project is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the BLM expects to be substantially involved during the life of the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant.
The BLM planned to make a single award and indicated an intent to enter into this agreement with the University of Wyoming. While the listing shows eligibility as “unrestricted,” the narrative makes clear that the agency’s anticipated partner for this specific cooperative agreement is the University of Wyoming. The project is designed as a long-term effort with an anticipated five-year duration, with the total project period capped at 60 months. Funding is described in a way that suggests incremental or continued support may occur over the five years rather than a single lump-sum award at the start. Continued funding is conditional on two main factors: first, the recipient demonstrating progress that the BLM considers satisfactory toward meeting program goals and the BLM determining continuation is in the government’s best interest; and second, the availability of appropriated funds in future periods.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $75,000 across the overall effort, with an award ceiling of $15,000 (and an award floor of $0), which aligns with the idea of smaller, potentially annual increments over a multi-year project. The opportunity also requires cost sharing or matching, meaning the recipient would need to contribute non-federal funds or in-kind support consistent with the agreement terms. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.224, Cultural Resource Management, reinforcing that the work is meant to identify, document, assess, and conserve cultural resources under BLM stewardship.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number WY NOI08 9007, posting and creation dates of June 12, 2008, and an application closing date of June 23, 2008, with the opportunity archived on July 23, 2008. For access issues or administrative questions, the contact listed is Ilze Karklins Powers, Grants and Agreements Specialist / Grants Management Officer, at 307-775-6293.
