Opportunity Summary:
The Meadowood Cultural Resources Partnership (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00337) was a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) discretionary grant offered as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management). The main purpose of the project was to investigate, document, and protect cultural and historic resources in and around Meadowood, specifically within the area connected to the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route National Scenic Trail. The broader goal was long-term preservation so that current and future visitors can understand and appreciate the region's historical significance, especially as it relates to the Revolutionary War and early life in Fairfax County, Virginia.
A central theme of the opportunity was partnership and public involvement. The project was framed as a collaborative effort that would actively involve the community, drawing on the Fairfax County Park Department archaeology division's model of bringing in the public and volunteers to participate in archaeology and resource stewardship. In practice, this means the work was not limited to professional surveys and protection measures; it also emphasized education and outreach, with the expectation that the public would benefit directly by learning how archaeology works, helping identify historic resources, and supporting efforts to protect them. The opportunity also highlighted interpretive programming as an important deliverable, meaning activities like guided programs, educational materials, or other interpretation that helps visitors connect the landscape to the Revolutionary War route and local historical development.
The announcement also tied the work to a larger planning and recognition objective: supporting the designation of a BLM-managed segment of the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route as part of the National Historic Trail. By building strong documentation and public engagement around Meadowood's cultural resources, the project aimed to strengthen the case for formal trail designation and improve long-term management of historically important places along the route.
Financially, the opportunity anticipated up to five awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $500,000. Individual awards ranged from a floor of $40,000 up to a ceiling of $500,000, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement. Eligible applicants were limited to county governments and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The opportunity was posted on August 30, 2010, and closed on September 10, 2010, with the listing later archived on November 1, 2010. The grants.gov listing was provided as the additional information source, and the point of contact for access issues was Velvette Clayton, Grants Management Officer at BLM (703-440-1741, vclayton@blm.gov).
