This National Park Service (NPS) grant, offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, is intended to fund an archaeological survey of federal landholdings within the Obed Wild and Scenic River in Morgan and Cumberland Counties, Tennessee. The primary purpose is to conduct a comprehensive archaeological site location survey and accurately document these federal properties, including clifflines, scenic easements, and uplands. This initiative is a collaborative partnership with the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, operating under the Southern Appalachian Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit. It is important to note that this is a public notice of NPS’s intent to award funding without full and open competition, rather than a general request for new applications. The project aims to enhance understanding and preservation of the region’s cultural heritage.
