Opportunity Summary:
The BLM ID 2009 Cultural Resources Data Sharing Partnership (Funding Opportunity Number BLM ID NOI 09 1314) was a Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management funding opportunity focused on cultural resource management within the broader natural resources mission area. It was offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, which generally means the agency expected to have substantial involvement in the work rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The purpose implied by the title is a partnership centered on sharing cultural resources data, which typically includes information that supports identification, documentation, management, and protection of archaeological sites, historic properties, and related heritage resources managed or influenced by BLM activities.
This posting was not a fully open, competitive solicitation. It was explicitly issued as a Notice of Intent to make an award as further assistance under a continuing agreement with the Idaho State Historical Society. In practical terms, that means the BLM anticipated making a single award to a specified state-level partner rather than seeking proposals from a broad pool of applicants. While the listing shows eligible applicants as state governments, the eligibility note clarifies that the intended recipient was the Idaho State Historical Society under an ongoing partnership arrangement.
The opportunity anticipated one award with an estimated total funding amount of $15,000, and the award ceiling was also $15,000, indicating that the entire projected funding was expected to go to that single project or continuation activity. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not have been required to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity was 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management), which is the federal assistance program category commonly used for projects involving preservation, stewardship, compliance support, inventories, and data systems related to cultural resources.
Key dates show it was posted on August 11, 2009, with an original and current closing date of August 30, 2009, and it was archived on September 29, 2009. Those dates reflect the window during which the notice was active on Grants.gov, even though the intent was to fund a continuation partner rather than run a broad competition. Anyone needing access to the full announcement at the time was directed to Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for assistance was Melinda D. Ritacco, Grants Management Officer, reachable at mritacco@blm.gov.
