Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Large Mammal response to wildfire and landscape-scale forest restoration in the Jemez Mountains" is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action focused on natural resource work related to how large mammals respond to wildfire and to broad, landscape-scale forest restoration efforts in the Jemez Mountains. The funding is planned as a Cooperative Agreement rather than a standard grant, which typically signals that NPS expects substantial involvement or collaboration in carrying out the project work, such as joint planning, shared technical input, or coordinated field activities.
This announcement is specifically a Notice of Intent to make an award through the National Park Service Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). In practical terms, that means the award will be executed as a task agreement under the CESU framework, which is commonly used by DOI agencies to partner with eligible institutions for research, monitoring, and technical assistance tied to resource management priorities. The notice also states that the award is noncompetitive under Department of the Interior policy (cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C), indicating NPS intends to make a direct award to a specific partner rather than run an open competition among multiple applicants.
Key administrative details include the opportunity number NPS NOIP16AC00010, with the posting and creation date of Oct 26, 2015, and a closing date of Nov 04, 2015. The opportunity anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1). The listing shows an AwardCeiling of 0, which often appears in notices of intent or noncompetitive CESU task agreement postings where the funding amount may be defined in an attached announcement, negotiated later, or not entered into the system record in the same way as a competed opportunity.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with additional clarification said to be provided in a separate eligibility text field or the attached announcement. In CESU opportunities, eligibility frequently depends on whether an organization is an established CESU partner or otherwise covered by the CESU agreement structure, so the attached materials would typically specify which entities are eligible to receive the task agreement. Overall, this posting functions more as a formal public notice that NPS plans to proceed with a specific cooperative, CESU-based project award addressing wildlife and forest restoration outcomes in the Jemez Mountains, rather than a solicitation inviting new proposals from the general public.
