Opportunity Summary:
The BLM WY Whoopup Firelines Rehabilitation opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number L13AS00103) is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), focused on natural resources work with a strong cultural resource management component (CFDA 15.224). The project is designed to provide educational training and hands-on work experience for conservation corps students while directly supporting the conservation and preservation of archaeological sites impacted by wildfire suppression activities. Specifically, participants will help the BLM rehabilitate firelines that were created by bulldozers during firefighting efforts and that cut through archaeological areas at the Whoopup Canyon fire site in Wyoming.
Funding is anticipated to be made through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the BLM expects to have substantial involvement in the project as it is carried out (for example, coordination on work plans, methods, schedules, compliance needs, and field oversight). The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $36,000. The funding range listed includes an award ceiling of $36,000 and an award floor of $11,500, indicating the agency could consider proposals at different budget levels depending on the scope and approach. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should be prepared to contribute non-federal match or in-kind support if required by the full announcement details.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted in a general sense, but it is effectively targeted to qualified youth corps or conservation organizations, which are the types of entities best positioned to provide corps crews, supervision, safety programs, and structured educational components. The intent is not only to complete on-the-ground rehabilitation work, but also to deliver meaningful workforce development and conservation education for participating students. The project sits at the intersection of land restoration and cultural resource protection, emphasizing that fire suppression impacts can extend beyond vegetation and soils to include sensitive archaeological resources that need careful stabilization and repair.
Key dates in the original posting show it was posted and created on June 14, 2013, with an application deadline of July 8, 2013, and an archive date of July 15, 2013. The listing directs applicants to the announcement package and instructions via the application materials and provides a point of contact for access issues: Robert J. Tichac at 307-775-6313 or rtichac@blm.gov.
