Opportunity Summary:
The BLM WY Rock Art Identification Special Management Area grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00133) was a Bureau of Land Management discretionary funding announcement focused on cultural resource management in Wyoming. Offered as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management), the project was designed as a continuation of prior work rather than a brand-new standalone effort. Its central purpose was to improve how cultural resource information is identified, organized, and shared, with particular attention to landscapes that are likely to contain rock art.
The practical work funded under this opportunity centered on locating, documenting, and better predicting where rock art sites may occur. In addition to recording known rock art localities, the project emphasized incorporating related physical features into the cultural resource data stream, specifically rock outcrops and geological formations that tend to correlate with rock art. That focus reflects a management need that goes beyond simply pinning site locations on a map; it supports a more landscape-based approach that helps land managers anticipate where undiscovered sites might exist and plan surveys, project reviews, and protective measures accordingly.
The expected deliverables were straightforward and field-oriented: survey, inventory, and mapping of rock art localities, followed by submission of the resulting information to both the Wyoming Cultural Records Office (the states central repository for site records) and the BLM. In effect, the grant aimed to produce standardized, shareable cultural resource data that can be used in consultation, planning, compliance reviews, and long-term stewardship. Because it is a cooperative agreement, BLM staff would typically be involved in coordinating or collaborating on the work rather than simply issuing funds and receiving a final report.
Administratively, the opportunity anticipated a single award with an estimated total funding amount of $50,000, and it did not require cost sharing or matching. The eligible applicants were limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating that the BLM was seeking a university or similar public academic partner with the technical capability to conduct field documentation and manage cultural resource datasets. The posting date was June 4, 2014, with key dates showing a short application window (original closing date June 23, 2014; current closing date June 30, 2014) and an archive date of July 15, 2014. The announcement listed Robert J. Tichac as the point of contact for access issues and application support, reachable at 307-775-6313 and rtichac@blm.gov.
