Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM NV Ely DO 2010 Round 4 Lincoln County Archaeological Initiative" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00329) is a discretionary funding program run by the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is part of the Lincoln County Archaeological Initiative (LCAI), which was created to direct funding toward archaeological work in Lincoln County, Nevada. The underlying source of the funding is the Lincoln County Land Act of 2000, which sets aside 85 percent of proceeds from auctions of public land in Lincoln County into a special account overseen by the Secretary of the Interior. A key purpose of that account is to fund the inventory, evaluation, protection, and management of unique archaeological resources in the county, and this opportunity is one mechanism BLM uses to distribute those funds through competitively selected projects.
This round of funding was offered as cooperative agreements, meaning projects would typically be carried out with substantial involvement from BLM rather than as hands-off pass-through grants. The program falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is tied to CFDA 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management). The total estimated funding available for this round was $1,000,000, with BLM expecting to make about 10 awards. Individual award amounts were anticipated to range from a floor of $50,000 to a ceiling of $250,000. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement stated, which generally means applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds to be eligible or competitive, though applicants could still propose leveraged support if it strengthened the project.
Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning it was open to any type of applicant entity, subject to any further clarifications that might have appeared in the full announcement on Grants.gov. In practical terms, opportunities like this commonly attract universities, museums, tribal entities, nonprofit research organizations, local governments, and qualified private or nonprofit partners that can carry out professional cultural resource work consistent with federal standards and BLM priorities. Applicants were expected to submit proposals for their chosen projects consistent with the initiative's goals, which center on identifying archaeological resources, assessing their significance, and implementing measures to protect and manage them, especially in a county experiencing land disposal and development pressures that can place cultural sites at risk.
The posting date and creation date were both August 30, 2010. The original and current application closing date for this round was October 30, 2010, and the opportunity was archived on November 30, 2010. The official additional information and full announcement were provided through Grants.gov, and the listed point of contact for access issues or administrative questions was Susan Kaller, Grants Management Officer, reachable at 775-861-6559 or susankaller@blm.gov.
