Opportunity Summary:
The Chaco Frontier Communities Project was a Department of the Interior grant opportunity (through the Bureau of Land Management in New Mexico) focused on advancing research into tribal community organization and settlement history in New Mexico, particularly in areas connected to the broader Chaco cultural landscape. The work emphasized professional cultural resources activities such as cultural resource inventories and archaeological or archival data recovery, paired with direct engagement with tribal members so that research results reflect and incorporate essential tribal perspectives rather than relying only on outside academic interpretation. In practice, this kind of project typically supports locating, documenting, and evaluating cultural sites and associated materials, compiling and analyzing findings, and producing usable documentation that can inform both scholarship and cultural resource management decisions.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Natural Resources funding activity category, meaning the federal agency expected to remain actively involved in shaping or overseeing the work rather than simply issuing a hands-off award. Only one award was anticipated, with an estimated total federal funding level of $15,000. The program also required cost sharing or matching, so the recipient would need to contribute non-federal resources (such as staff time, services, or other allowable match) consistent with the terms of the agreement.
Eligibility was limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, indicating the project was intended to be carried out by a qualifying university or similar state institution with relevant expertise in anthropology, archaeology, history, cultural resource management, and/or collaborative research with tribes. The funding opportunity number was BLM NM NOI 09 0966, and it was listed under CFDA 15.238.
The announcement was posted and created on May 11, 2009, with an original and current closing date of May 20, 2009, and it was archived on June 11, 2009. Applicants were directed to grants.gov for full announcement details. For access issues or questions, the listed point of contact was Janet Y. Huff (jhuff@blm.gov).
