Opportunity Summary:
The "Long term Curation of the Norton Collection" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number R11SS60007) is a Bureau of Reclamation, Great Plains Region notice indicating the agency's intent to make a single grant award to support cultural resources management activities focused on the long-term curation of the Norton Collection. The posting is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," which typically means the agency is announcing its plan to fund a specific project or recipient rather than running a broad, open competition for multiple new proposals.
The opportunity is categorized under an "Other" funding activity type, with the clarification that the work falls under Cultural Resources Management, and it is tied to CFDA 15.511 (Cultural Resources Management). The total estimated funding amount is $10,000, and both the estimated total funding and the award ceiling are listed as $10,000, with an award floor of $0. Only one award is expected, reinforcing that this is a targeted, single-award action rather than a multi-award program cycle. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated, meaning applicants would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the grant.
The timeline for the announcement is short and clearly defined. The opportunity was posted and created on June 6, 2011, with an original and current closing date of June 20, 2011, and an archive date of June 21, 2011. This kind of narrow posting window is common for notices of intent to award or other limited-scope actions where the agency is finalizing an award and is meeting public notice requirements.
Eligibility is listed very broadly, covering a wide range of potential applicant types. These include interstate and intrastate entities; state and local governments; sponsored organizations; public and private nonprofit institutions; other public institutions; federally recognized Indian Tribal Governments; minority and specialized groups; small businesses; for-profit organizations; quasi-public nonprofits; and Native American organizations. While the eligibility list is expansive, the "notice of intent" framing and the single expected award strongly suggest that, in practice, the agency anticipated awarding funds to a particular qualifying organization connected to the curation needs of the Norton Collection.
For assistance accessing the full announcement or related materials, the contact provided is Lindsey Nafts, Grants Officer, at 406-247-7684. The sponsoring agency is the Bureau of Reclamation (Great Plains Region), indicating the work is likely associated with cultural resources under Reclamation's stewardship, with the grant intended to support proper long-term care, preservation, and management of the referenced collection.
