Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "BLM WY State Historical Preservation Cooperative Partnership" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00330) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is focused on natural resources, specifically the protection, management, and public understanding of cultural and historic resources connected to public lands and the federal mineral estate in Wyoming. The overarching purpose is to continue and strengthen a long-standing working relationship between BLM Wyoming and the Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), ensuring that cultural resource responsibilities are carried out in a coordinated, consistent way across the state.
At its core, the project supports three interconnected areas of work. First is the management of cultural resource data related to BLM-administered public lands and subsurface mineral interests in Wyoming. This typically involves maintaining, improving, and coordinating records about archaeological sites, historic properties, surveys, and related compliance and planning information so that land management decisions and project reviews are informed by accurate and up-to-date data. Second are site stewardship activities, which generally include efforts aimed at monitoring, protecting, and caring for cultural sites, often through organized stewardship programs, coordination with partners, and actions that reduce damage from vandalism, unauthorized collecting, or unintentional impacts. Third are education, interpretation, and outreach opportunities designed to increase public awareness of Wyoming's cultural heritage and to encourage responsible use and long-term preservation of historic and archaeological resources.
The announcement anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an estimated total funding amount of $500,000. The notice lists no formal award ceiling or floor, which usually means the funding amount is expected to be determined through the application and negotiation process rather than being constrained by a preset per-award limit. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies under a challenge cost share approach, meaning the recipient is expected to contribute non-federal resources (such as staff time, services, or other eligible contributions) toward the overall project effort as part of the partnership arrangement.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, aligning with the stated intent of partnering directly with the Wyoming SHPO. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 15.238. The opportunity was posted and created on August 25, 2014, with an original and current closing date of September 8, 2014, and it was archived on September 15, 2014. Applicants were directed to use the application materials in the full announcement package, and the point of contact for access issues or questions was Robert J. Tichac at BLM (phone 307-775-6313, email rtichac@blm.gov).
