Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00467
The Department of the Interior, through the National Park Service, announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Conduct Archeological Survey of Savonoski River to Hallo Bay" (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00467). The project is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the Park Service expects to have substantial involvement during the work rather than serving only as a passive funder. The funding activity area is listed under Humanities (with reference to Cultural Affairs), and the associated CFDA number is 15.945.
The purpose of the project is an archeological and ethnographic study focused on a specific corridor in Alaska: the Savonoski River from downstream areas up to its headwaters, and then continuing across the Aleutian Range to Shelikof Strait along the North Pacific coast, including the route to Hallo Bay. In practical terms, this points to field-based work intended to identify, document, and interpret cultural resources and human use of the landscape, combining archeological survey methods with ethnographic research to better understand historical and traditional connections to the area.
Eligibility for the award is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. However, this announcement is explicitly a notice of intent to award to a single named recipient: the University of Alaska Museum of the North. Because of that, the notice states that applications will not be accepted from any other entity, making this a directed, non-competitive action rather than an open solicitation.
The opportunity was created on July 24, 2018, with an original closing date of August 2, 2018, reflecting the short administrative window typical of intent-to-award notices. The expected number of awards is one, with an award ceiling of $200,000.Apply for P18AS00467
