Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM CA CESU Northeast Information Center Data Sharing Arch Research" (Funding Opportunity Number L15AS00171) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding opportunity offered through a cooperative agreement. It is designed to build a long-term partnership that strengthens how archaeological sites and their related natural and cultural settings are managed and understood on federal lands in California. The core idea is to combine the capabilities of the BLM and cooperating partners into an ongoing, durable archaeological study program rather than a one-off project, with an emphasis on practical management outcomes as well as research and education.
The funded work focuses on cultural resource management activities that help address real-world threats to archaeological sites. Key program goals include supporting student education and training, improving understanding of relationships between human culture and the surrounding environment in the region, and conducting salvage efforts for cultural resources that are threatened or already damaged. The program also aims to evaluate archaeological sites in terms of their complexity and overall significance, including assessing whether sites may be eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. In addition, the work is intended to mitigate impacts to vulnerable sites and produce recommendations for protecting, stabilizing, and better managing cultural resources over time.
Administratively, this opportunity was posted June 11, 2015, with an application closing date of August 11, 2015 (the original and current closing dates match). The opportunity was later archived on December 30, 2019. The estimated total funding amount is $500,000, and because the award ceiling and award floor are both listed as $500,000, the structure suggests a single award at that amount. The expected number of awards is 1. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating the program is meant to be carried out through universities or similar public academic entities, aligning with the stated emphasis on student education and an enduring research program. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA number associated with this program is 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management), which matches the cultural and archaeological management scope described in the announcement.
