Opportunity Summary:
The Black Mountain Archaeological District Research Project (CESU) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) cooperative agreement intended to continue a long-running partnership with the University of Wyoming focused on cultural resource management, specifically the study and protection of rockshelters and related archaeological sites on public lands. The opportunity is framed as a continuation of prior assistance agreements that supported similar work, but those earlier agreements had expired, prompting this new award to keep the program moving forward. The overall concept is a multi-year, field-and-lab research and preservation effort that also functions as a training pipeline, giving University of Wyoming staff and students hands-on experience while directly supporting BLM's cultural resource responsibilities.
The main purpose of the project is the location, recordation, evaluation, and stabilization of cultural resources within the Black Mountain Archaeological District, with an emphasis on rockshelters. In practical terms, this means finding and documenting sites, formally recording their characteristics and condition, assessing their significance and management needs, and carrying out or planning steps to stabilize them to prevent further deterioration. This work aligns with BLM's mission to conserve and protect cultural resources that matter to the public, ensuring that significant archaeological places on federal land are identified, understood, and safeguarded rather than being lost to erosion, vandalism, or other impacts.
A key feature of the project is the division of roles between the partners. The University of Wyoming is expected to provide professional supervision and to lead the on-the-ground fieldwork, laboratory analysis, and the preparation of the resulting technical reports. BLM, as the federal land management agency, benefits by advancing required cultural resource documentation and protection work while also supporting educational and public learning goals. The program is explicitly described as creating educational opportunities not only for university personnel but also for the broader public to learn more about cultural resources on public lands, tying resource protection to outreach and awareness.
Administratively, this opportunity was issued under Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00101 as a discretionary cooperative agreement in the cultural resources area (CFDA 15.224, Cultural Resource Management). The anticipated number of awards is one, with an estimated total funding amount of $75,000 and an award ceiling of $75,000 (award floor $10,000). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated. Although the listing shows eligibility as "unrestricted," the announcement clarifies that it is not a request for applications and is instead a notice of BLM's intent to fund the work without full and open competition, naming the University of Wyoming as the intended recipient. The posted date was May 24, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 10, 2010, and an archive date of August 15, 2010.
The period of performance for the agreement is described as running from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2015, signaling a long-term program rather than a short, one-season project. For access issues related to the full announcement, the grants management contact listed is Ilze J. Karklins Powers, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at 307-775-6293 or by email at ipowers@blm.gov.
