Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered a discretionary cooperative agreement funding opportunity titled "Education, Interpretation, Visitor Services and Resource Protection for BLM Anasazi Heritage Center - Canyons of the Ancients National Monument" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00314). The project focus is on supporting public-facing education and interpretation, strengthening visitor services, and helping protect cultural and natural resources connected to the Anasazi Heritage Center and Canyons of the Ancients National Monument in Colorado. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at expanding how the public learns about and responsibly experiences these public lands, while also increasing on-the-ground stewardship that helps preserve sensitive sites and landscapes.
The grant emphasizes promotion of education, volunteer stewardship, information sharing, and hands-on involvement on public lands in Colorado. That typically means developing or delivering interpretive and educational activities for visitors, organizing and supporting volunteer efforts that contribute to caring for public lands, improving the quality and availability of visitor information, and assisting with resource protection activities that reduce impacts to important sites. Because this is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, the expectation is generally that the recipient would work closely with BLM staff in planning and carrying out the project, with substantial involvement from the agency during implementation.
Funding for the opportunity was estimated at a total of $75,000, with an award ceiling of $75,000 and an award floor of $1,500. BLM expected to make one award. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants were not required to provide matching funds to be eligible, although applicants could still propose leveraged support or partner contributions as part of a strong project approach. The assistance listing (CFDA) associated with the announcement was 15.224, Cultural Resource Management, reflecting the cultural and heritage resource component tied to the Anasazi Heritage Center and the national monument.
Eligibility was limited to nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education. The opportunity was posted on August 14, 2014, and closed on August 25, 2014, with an archive date of September 30, 2014. The funding activity category was listed under Environment and Natural Resources, consistent with projects that combine public education and visitor engagement with stewardship and protection of public lands and cultural resources.
For applicants needing more detail, the announcement directed users to review the project description under the "Announcement" section and to download application forms and instructions under the "Application" section. The listed point of contact for access issues or questions was Ruth A. Raisanen at the BLM (phone 303-239-3605, email rraisane@blm.gov).
