Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM CO CANM McElmo Canyon Research Institute Partnership for Dolores Archaeological" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00123) is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary funding announcement focused on cultural resource management. It supports work that strengthens the long-term care and usability of the Dolores Archaeological Program (DAP) collections by improving how artifacts and archival materials are preserved, documented, and made accessible. The central aim is to bring the DAP artifact and archive holdings up to current museum preservation standards, which typically involves a combination of physical rehousing and conservation improvements, upgraded cataloging and records management, and better systems for researcher or public access consistent with professional museum and archival practices.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, meaning the BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with total estimated funding of $50,000. Individual awards were expected to range from a floor of $12,500 up to a ceiling of $50,000, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement. The funding activity category is natural resources, and the associated CFDA number listed is 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management), aligning the project with federal cultural heritage stewardship responsibilities tied to public lands.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, indicating that a wide range of applicant types could apply (such as nonprofits, academic institutions, tribes, state or local governments, and other entities), subject to any additional eligibility details that may have been included in the full announcement text on Grants.gov. Key dates show the announcement was posted June 9, 2010, originally closed June 23, 2010, and later extended to a current closing date of July 9, 2010, with an archive date of August 9, 2010. Interested applicants were directed to the Grants.gov listing for the full announcement and instructions, and the contact provided for access issues was Yvonne Pier at yvonnepier@blm.gov.
