Opportunity Information: Apply for P18AS00258
The Department of the Interior, National Park Service announced a discretionary funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P18AS00258) to support the completion of a Research Design and Data Recovery Plan for Tonto National Monument. The award is set up as a cooperative agreement, meaning the National Park Service expects to be actively involved with the recipient during the work rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The opportunity was posted on May 30, 2018, with an original closing date of June 9, 2018. The agency anticipated making one award, with a maximum funding amount (award ceiling) of $41,396. The funding activity category is listed under natural resources, and the associated CFDA number is 15.945. Eligibility is broadly categorized as "Others," with specifics to be clarified in the opportunity's additional eligibility information.
The core purpose of the project is to generate practical, decision-ready information about archaeological sites within Tonto National Monument so the park can both reduce deferred maintenance tied to its maintained archaeological sites and better plan for future infrastructure needs. In this context, "deferred maintenance" generally refers to work that should be done to maintain and protect resources but has been postponed, often leading to increased risk of deterioration or damage over time. The project is framed as a key step in improving the park's ability to responsibly manage archaeological resources while also meeting operational needs like trail maintenance and utility corridor work.
The project has two closely related objectives. First, it will produce a research design along with recommendations for testing and mitigation procedures for archaeological sites that fall in areas where future development is expected, specifically along park trails and utility corridors. A research design typically lays out the questions to be answered, the background and context for the work, and the methods and standards that will be used to investigate sites. The testing and mitigation recommendations are meant to guide how the park should evaluate and address impacts to archaeological resources when construction, repair, rerouting, or other ground-disturbing activities are proposed. Second, the resulting document is intended to directly support the park in reducing deferred maintenance affecting archaeological sites and in understanding how planned infrastructure development could affect those resources. In other words, the plan is not just an academic exercise; it is meant to be a management tool that helps the park anticipate impacts, choose appropriate protective actions, and integrate cultural resource considerations into routine maintenance and future projects.
Overall, this notice of intent describes a relatively focused, single-award effort to create a formal planning document that links archaeological research priorities with on-the-ground management needs at Tonto National Monument. The expected outcome is a usable research design and data recovery plan that helps the park proactively protect archaeological sites while it maintains and improves trails, utilities, and other infrastructure.Apply for P18AS00258
