Opportunity Summary:
The "BLM CA AFO Trinidad Museum" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM CA NOI 09 2004) was a discretionary grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management, offered through a cooperative agreement. It focused on supporting the Trinidad Museum in Trinidad, California by funding the development and installation of natural history and cultural history exhibits, along with the creation of related educational programming. A central purpose of the work was to improve public understanding of the resources associated with the California Coastal National Monument (CCNM), using the museum as a place where visitors can learn about the monument's landscapes, wildlife, coastal features, and cultural heritage through well-designed interpretation.
The projects envisioned under this award were aimed at practical public-facing deliverables. The Trinidad Museum Society could propose, among other things, interpretive displays, curated exhibits, educational programs, and additional informational materials that translate the CCNM's natural and cultural resources into accessible content for the public. Because the instrument type was a cooperative agreement, the funding approach implied a more collaborative relationship with the federal agency than a standard grant, typically involving coordination on goals, content, or implementation to ensure the work supports BLM public education and resource stewardship objectives.
Funding for the opportunity was capped at an estimated total of $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $3,000, and the agency expected to make one award. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowered the barrier for eligible organizations to apply. The funding activity category was Natural Resources, and the listing referenced CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.225, Recreation Resource Management, reflecting the program's connection to public recreation, interpretation, and responsible resource education rather than research or construction-heavy work.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The notice was posted and created on June 16, 2009, with an original and current closing date of July 10, 2009, and it was archived on July 15, 2009. Applicants were directed to Grants.gov for the full announcement, and the listed point of contact for access issues was Leona B. Parker at lparker@blm.gov.
