Opportunity Information: Apply for L17AS00199
The grant opportunity titled "BLM-NM Tribal Survey Assistance for the Fort Stanton-Snowy River Cave National Conservation Area (NCA)" is a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) funding announcement focused on supporting tribal-led cultural resource surveying within the Fort Stanton and Snowy River Cave National Conservation Area in New Mexico. The NCA was created by Congress through Title II of the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009 and is managed by the BLM Roswell Field Office. The central purpose of the opportunity is to help tribes document and identify Traditional Cultural Properties (TCPs) and Sacred Sites within the NCA so that BLM can make better-informed land management decisions that reflect cultural values and responsibilities tied to the area.
The setting is important to understanding why this funding exists. The NCA is described as part of the broader Sierra Blanca region cultural landscape and sits about 20 miles northeast of the current boundaries of the Mescalero Apache Indian Reservation. The notice emphasizes that the region has a long-standing Native American presence that continues into the present day. According to the announcement, the idea for this effort came directly out of tribal consultation meetings, where tribes asked for an opportunity to conduct surveys in the NCA. In practical terms, the work supported by this award is meant to strengthen government-to-government consultation outcomes by ensuring tribal knowledge and tribal priorities are reflected in how culturally sensitive places are identified, considered, and ultimately managed.
Administratively, this is a discretionary funding opportunity issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement or partnership with the federal agency during the project rather than a hands-off grant. The activity category is Natural Resources, and the listing is tied to CFDA number 15.224. The opportunity number is L17AS00199, and it was posted on July 2, 2017, with an original application closing date of September 1, 2017.
In terms of funding scale and competition, the announcement anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $100,000. Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is open to any type of entity, with the caveat that applicants still needed to review any additional eligibility details that may have been included in the full announcement text. Overall, the opportunity is narrowly targeted in purpose: enabling tribal participation in surveying and documenting TCPs and Sacred Sites at Fort Stanton-Snowy River Cave NCA so BLM can develop management approaches that better protect and respect culturally important places.Apply for L17AS00199
