Opportunity Summary:

The Little Missouri Antelope Trap Survey is a cultural resources grant opportunity from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Wyoming State Office, offered as a cooperative agreement. The purpose of the project is to investigate prehistoric and historic Indigenous antelope trapping in the Little Missouri area and to better understand how antelope trap ceremonial sites fit into the traditional cultural practices of Plains Indian tribes. A central piece of the work is field-based documentation: recording the physical remains of an antelope trap, then comparing what is found on the ground with other known trap structures to place the site in a broader archaeological and ethnographic context. The intent is not only to document a single site, but to use it to strengthen understanding of how these trapping systems were built, used, and culturally framed.

BLM indicated its intent to award the agreement specifically with the University of Wyoming, noting the universitys longstanding specialization and reputation in North America for studying aboriginal game trapping methods and outcomes. The expected public benefit is the addition of new, site-specific information that complements and extends prior research and publications produced by University of Wyoming investigators, helping refine what is known about game drive and trapping systems in the Plains and adjacent regions. Because this is a cooperative agreement, it implies an active partnership where BLM may be involved in coordination, oversight, or collaboration as the work proceeds, rather than a hands-off grant relationship.

The anticipated project period is three years, with the total period of performance capped at 36 months. Continued funding beyond initial support is described as conditional: BLM may consider continuation if the recipient demonstrates progress that BLM considers satisfactory toward the program goals and if continuing the effort is judged to be in the governments best interest, and/or if funds remain available. Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $13,000, which is also the award ceiling, with no stated award floor. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed.

Administratively, the opportunity was posted June 26, 2008, with an original and current closing date of July 15, 2008, and an archive date of August 14, 2008. It falls under CFDA 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management) and the activity category is identified as Cultural Resources. Only one award was expected, and eligible applicants are limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. The point of contact for access issues with the full announcement is Ilze Karklins Powers, Grants and Agreements Specialist (phone 307-775-6293), listed under the BLM Wyoming State Office.
