Opportunity Summary:

The Department of the Interior, through the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Colorado, offered a discretionary funding opportunity titled "BLM CO Cultural Clearances for Mine Safety Closure Projects" (Funding Opportunity Number: BLMCO NOI09 1220). The purpose of the award was to support cultural resource clearances that need to happen before BLM can move forward with closing unsafe mines. In practical terms, the project focus was on making sure proposed mine closure work does not unintentionally harm cultural, archaeological, or historic resources, and that required reviews are completed before on-the-ground safety closure activities begin.

This opportunity was structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the agency expects to be substantially involved with the recipient during the project (for example, coordinating fieldwork, defining deliverables, or reviewing findings). The funding activity category was listed as Environment, and it aligned with CFDA 15.236, Environmental Quality and Protection Resource Management. The notice anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $50,000. Individual awards could range from a floor of $5,000 up to a ceiling of $50,000, indicating the project scope could vary depending on the number of sites, field conditions, or the level of documentation required.

Cost sharing or matching was required, meaning the applicant would need to contribute some portion of project costs through cash and/or allowable in-kind contributions, consistent with the agreement terms. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of entity as long as it met any requirements described in the full text of the announcement (not reproduced in the summary) and complied with federal assistance rules.

The posting timeline was short and specific. The opportunity was posted on September 2, 2009, created on September 3, 2009, and closed on September 11, 2009, with no extension shown (the original and current closing dates matched). It was later archived on October 1, 2009. Applications were accepted through Grants.gov.

For questions or access issues related to the announcement, the contact listed was Yvonne R. Pier at yvonnepier@blm.gov (the email address was provided in the notice, including a duplicate listing).
