Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offered this discretionary funding opportunity titled "FA BLM New Mexico ARMS Cultural Resource Data Sharing" (Funding Opportunity Number L14AS00195) to support cultural resource management work in New Mexico focused specifically on data sharing through ARMS. In practical terms, the opportunity centered on improving the exchange, accessibility, and management of cultural resource information by coordinating and sharing source data relevant to archaeology and related cultural resource inventories, records, and management needs. The activity category was listed under Natural Resources, and the CFDA program identified for the funding was 15.224, Cultural Resource Management, which signals that the work is tied to documenting, managing, and protecting cultural resources under federal land stewardship responsibilities.
The award mechanism was a Cooperative Agreement, meaning recipients would typically work in active coordination with BLM rather than operating entirely independently as under a standard grant. This kind of instrument often reflects a need for ongoing collaboration, shared technical standards, and alignment with BLM data systems, formats, and resource management priorities. The opportunity anticipated making up to three awards. Total estimated funding for the announcement was $450,000, with an individual award floor of $50,000 and an award ceiling of $450,000, indicating that at least one award could potentially cover the full available amount depending on proposals received and program decisions. There was no stated cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving an award.
Eligibility was limited to state governments. This restriction suggests the intent was to partner with New Mexico state-level entities that maintain or manage cultural resource data systems, repositories, or statewide programs and that are positioned to coordinate data sharing at a broad scale. The posting date and creation date were both July 8, 2014. The original and current closing date was August 4, 2014, and the opportunity was archived on September 3, 2014, reflecting that it was a time-limited solicitation with a relatively short application window.
For applicants needing assistance accessing the full announcement, BLM provided a point of contact: Charise Saiz, Grants and Agreements Specialist, reachable by phone at (505) 761-8725 or by email at csaiz@blm.gov.
