Opportunity Summary:
The BLM CO Project Archaeology Education Program (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00317) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered through a cooperative agreement to support public education about cultural resources on public lands. The central purpose of the opportunity was to develop and deliver useful, informative, and educational materials that help the public become more knowledgeable about, and more appreciative of, cultural, archaeological, and historical resources managed on public lands. In practical terms, the program was aimed at outreach and education products that interpret archaeology and history for general audiences and encourage responsible stewardship of these resources.
This opportunity fell under the Natural Resources funding activity category and was associated with CFDA 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management). The BLM anticipated making one award under this announcement. The estimated total funding available was $50,000, with an award ceiling of $50,000 and an award floor of $12,500, meaning proposed projects could vary in size but were expected to fit within that funding range. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds to be considered.
Eligibility was limited and specific. The eligible applicant identified in the announcement was the Colorado Council of Professional Archaeologists, listed under the broader eligible applicant category of "Others" with clarification provided in the eligibility text. That indicates this was not an open, nationwide competition for all organizations; it was structured for a particular eligible entity, likely reflecting an existing program partnership or a targeted cooperative arrangement to accomplish the education and outreach goals described.
The timeline for the opportunity was short and clearly defined. The notice was posted and created on August 19, 2014, with an original and current application deadline of September 5, 2014. The opportunity was archived on September 30, 2014. Applicants were directed to use the application materials and full instructions available through the announcement's application resources, with an additional information link pointing to where the full announcement could be downloaded.
For administrative and access questions, the contact provided was Yvonne Pier, Grants Management Officer at BLM, reachable at ypier@blm.gov. The announcement specifically noted that applicants who had difficulty accessing the full announcement electronically should contact the grants management officer for assistance, suggesting the detailed scope, deliverables, and application requirements were contained in the full downloadable instructions rather than in the brief synopsis.
