Opportunity Summary:
The Cultural Resources Education and Protection opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BLM WO NOI 09 01425) was a discretionary federal grant announcement from the U.S. Department of the Interior, specifically tied to the Bureau of Land Management's cultural resource management mission. The notice was issued as a Notice of Intent (NOI), meaning it was not a broadly competitive call for proposals in practice. Instead, the announcement stated that the agency intended to make a single award to a named recipient: Montana State University. The purpose area was listed under Education, reflecting an emphasis on educational efforts connected to protecting, understanding, or responsibly managing cultural resources.
Funding was to be provided through a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the agency expected to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, collaboration on work planning, coordination on deliverables, or participation in oversight and implementation). The opportunity anticipated one award with an estimated total funding amount of $26,000. The award ceiling was also $26,000, and the award floor was listed as $0, indicating there was not a minimum guaranteed amount, though the intent and ceiling strongly suggest the planned award size. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not have been required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
The listing was associated with CFDA number 15.224, Cultural Resource Management, which is the federal assistance program category commonly used for projects involving the stewardship of cultural and historic resources. Key dates show the notice was posted and created on September 4, 2009, with an original and current closing date of September 18, 2009, and an archive date of October 18, 2009. While the eligibility field in the data references nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status other than institutions of higher education, the narrative description explicitly states the intent to award to Montana State University, underscoring that this announcement functioned as a targeted, agency-directed award rather than an open competition.
For applicants or members of the public seeking the full announcement at the time, the additional information link pointed to Grants.gov (www.grants.gov/apply). The designated point of contact for access issues was Lisa Ensley, Grants Management Officer, reachable by phone at 202-912-7098 or by email at lisaensley@blm.gov.
