Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Protection of Historical Archaeological Resources on Public Lands under Bureau of Land Management jurisdiction in Western Colorado" (Funding Opportunity Number L10AS00206) was a discretionary funding announcement issued by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It was designed to support work that benefits the public by protecting, stabilizing, studying, and interpreting historical and archaeological resources located on BLM-managed public lands in western Colorado. In practical terms, the program aimed to help keep historic places from being damaged or lost while also improving how the public learns about and engages with these resources through education and interpretation.
The project activities described were broad and centered on four main themes: interpretation, education, protection, and research. Interpretation and education could include developing, producing, presenting, and distributing materials and services such as interpretive publications, brochures, signs, exhibits, displays, and public programs. Protection and preservation work could include stabilization of historic resources "on the ground," which generally means hands-on measures to reduce deterioration or vandalism and to address threats like erosion, weathering, or human impacts. Research and management support were also eligible, implying work that strengthens understanding of the resources and improves long-term stewardship, potentially including documentation, inventories, condition assessments, and other cultural resource management tasks consistent with BLM priorities.
This opportunity was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning BLM expected to have substantial involvement in the work rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. Cooperative agreements are commonly used when the agency anticipates collaboration on planning, technical direction, or coordination, especially for projects on public land or projects requiring close alignment with federal cultural resource policies and land management objectives. The funding activity category was listed under Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA number was 15.224 (Cultural Resource Management), indicating it fit within federal assistance programs focused on cultural heritage stewardship.
The announcement anticipated making one award. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute cash or in-kind match as a condition of eligibility, although voluntary contributions are sometimes used to strengthen proposals depending on the evaluation process. Eligible applicants included individuals and nonprofit organizations with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The posting and creation date were July 20, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 3, 2010, and the opportunity was archived on August 31, 2010. Additional details and the full announcement were made available through Grants.gov.
