Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00070

The FY2017 Historic Preservation Fund - Tribal Historic Preservation Offices opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00070) is a mandatory, formula-based grant program administered by the Department of the Interior through the National Park Service. It is designed to support Tribal Historic Preservation Offices (THPOs) in protecting, managing, and sustaining cultural and historic resources that are significant to federally recognized Tribal Nations. In practical terms, the program helps fund the core preservation work that THPOs carry out to document important places, safeguard cultural heritage, and ensure that preservation responsibilities are properly handled within Tribal jurisdictions and areas of interest.

The purpose of the grants is to enable THPOs to identify, evaluate, and preserve significant cultural and historic resources using a range of activities that reflect real preservation needs on the ground. Supported work can include field surveys to locate and document historic properties, educational efforts that build public understanding and community capacity, archaeological activities tied to identifying and protecting sites, preservation planning that sets priorities and strategies, and technical assistance that helps Tribes and partners apply professional standards to preservation decisions. The overarching goal is to strengthen the ability of THPOs to carry out the responsibilities assigned under federal historic preservation law, specifically 54 USC 301 et seq., commonly referred to as the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1996 as amended through 2006.

Eligibility for this program is limited to Native American tribal governments that are federally recognized, reflecting the program focus on supporting formal THPO operations. The funding is provided as a grant (rather than a cooperative agreement or contract) and is categorized under CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.904. Because it is a formula grant program, awards are generally determined by an established allocation method rather than a fully competitive scoring process, with the intent of providing consistent baseline support across a broad set of Tribal Historic Preservation Offices.

For FY2017, the opportunity anticipated making a large number of awards, with an expected 170 grants issued. The listed award ceiling was $150,000, indicating the maximum award amount per recipient under this announcement. The opportunity was created on June 16, 2017, and the original application deadline was August 31, 2017. Overall, this funding opportunity functioned as a key federal support mechanism for Tribal Nations to maintain and strengthen preservation programs, advance documentation and protection of historic resources, and carry out NHPA-related responsibilities through THPO-led activities.
