Opportunity Summary:

The BLM WY Archaeological Collection and Curation grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00329) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) focused on cultural resource management in Wyoming. The project is centered on archaeological collection care, long-term curation, and related repository services, and it is designed to continue and strengthen an established working partnership between BLM Wyoming and the University of Wyoming Department of Anthropology's Archaeological Repository. In practical terms, the opportunity supports the ongoing stewardship of archaeological materials and associated records connected to BLM-managed lands, helping ensure those items are preserved, organized, and professionally managed so they remain accessible for research, compliance needs, and public benefit over time.

The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates active involvement by the federal agency in the project beyond simply providing funds. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the CFDA listing associated with the opportunity is 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management). The announcement anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $400,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement was listed, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The notice did not specify an award ceiling or floor (both listed as $0), which usually means the agency did not publish minimum or maximum award limits in the public summary and intended applicants to rely on the full announcement for budget scope and expectations.

Eligibility was limited to state governments and public or state-controlled institutions of higher education, which aligns with the described partnership model and the role universities often play in curating and managing archaeological collections. The opportunity was posted on August 25, 2014, with an application closing date of September 8, 2014, and an archive date of September 15, 2014. Applicants were directed to the full announcement and application package via the "APPLICATION" tab in the posting system, suggesting that detailed instructions, required forms, and performance expectations were provided in the complete notice rather than in the short synopsis.

For assistance accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed point of contact was Robert J. Tichac at BLM, reachable by phone at 307-775-6313 or by email at rtichac@blm.gov.
