Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Hopi Participation in the Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Program" (Funding Opportunity Number R12SS40025) was a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation, Upper Colorado Region. It focused on cultural resources management within the broader environmental management context of Glen Canyon Dam operations. The central purpose of the funding was to support the Hopi Tribe's direct participation in the Glen Canyon Dam Adaptive Management Program, specifically to identify, evaluate, and monitor historic properties, sacred areas, and places of traditional Hopi cultural use that may be affected by how the dam is operated over the long term. In practical terms, the opportunity was intended to ensure that Hopi perspectives, expertise, and cultural priorities were not simply consulted, but meaningfully integrated into ongoing decision-making and stewardship activities connected to dam operations and their downstream or area-wide impacts.
This opportunity anticipated making a single award, with an award ceiling of $95,000 and an award floor of $1. Cost sharing or matching funds were not required, which reduced barriers to participation for eligible applicants. While the eligibility list included a wide range of applicant types such as county governments, state governments, city or township governments, individuals, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments, the description makes clear the activity was centered on Hopi involvement and capacity to participate in the adaptive management process. The funding activity category was listed as "Environment," and the CFDA number was 15.511, associated with Cultural Resources Management, underscoring that the work was primarily about protecting and managing cultural resources in an operational landscape shaped by large-scale water infrastructure.
The timeline for the announcement shows it was posted and created on May 30, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 14, 2012, and then archived on June 15, 2012. This indicates it was a time-limited funding opportunity with a relatively short application window. The overall intent was to support sustained, informed Hopi participation in long-term management decisions affecting culturally significant places in the area influenced by Glen Canyon Dam operations, aligning cultural resource protection with ongoing monitoring and adaptive management needs.
For applicant support or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed contact was Melynda Roberts, Grants Specialist at the Bureau of Reclamation, reachable by phone at 801-524-3727, with an email contact noted for the Bureau of Reclamation (though the specific email address is not included in the provided source data).
