Capital Improvement funds are available for projects such as: structural improvement, structure and site restoration, physical access (ADA), interpretive facilities and collections, and adaptation to meet health and safety requirements. Interpretation funds
are available for contributions to local history in the areas of site investigation and interpretation, long-term exhibits, and publications. The primary emphasis must be on the demonstrable long-term impact of the project on the preservation, interpretation,
dissemination and/or enhancement of local history. The grants may not be used for routine maintenance, programs, publicity, general operations, personnel, or personal research, and they must be related to the mission of the Historical Museum at Fort Missoula
– the preservation and interpretation of: Missoula County history, the military history of Fort Missoula, and the history of the timber industry in western Montana, and the detention of 2200 Italian and Japanese foreign nationals at Fort Missoula during WWII.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
