Opportunity Summary:
The BLM CA San Joaquin River Gorge Project Archaeology Program (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00345) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on public education and outreach tied to archaeology and cultural resource stewardship on public lands. The program centers on "Project Archaeology" goals, which include teaching students, organized groups, and the broader public how archaeology works as a science, what cultural resource management careers look like in practice, and why cultural and historic places deserve respect and protection. A major emphasis is also placed on building awareness and appreciation of local Native American culture and encouraging responsible recreation behaviors that help prevent damage to sensitive sites.
This opportunity is offered under a Cooperative Agreement, meaning the BLM expects an active partnership with the award recipient rather than a simple pass-through of funds. The funding activity category is Education, and the CFDA (now commonly referenced through Assistance Listings) number is 15.224, Cultural Resource Management. The BLM anticipated making one award under this announcement, with an estimated total program funding amount of $150,000. Individual awards could range from a floor of $15,000 up to a ceiling of $150,000, depending on the proposed scope and fit. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, which generally makes the program more accessible to applicants that may not have non-federal funds available to contribute.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning it is open to any type of entity as long as it meets any conditions or clarifications that may appear in the full announcement (referenced as the "Additional Information on Eligibility" field). The original posting date was September 3, 2010, and the application closing date was September 13, 2010 (the same as the current closing date in the record). The opportunity was later archived on October 4, 2010, indicating it is not currently open, but the summary still reflects how the program was structured and what BLM sought to accomplish through it.
For those needing more detail from the official materials, the announcement pointed applicants to Grants.gov and provided a direct contact for access issues: Traci D. Thaler, Grants and Agreements Specialist, at 916-978-4529 or tthaler@blm.gov.
