Opportunity Summary:

The funding opportunity titled "A Special Study of the Navaho" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS NOIR7420120004) is a discretionary National Park Service (NPS) cooperative agreement issued under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). Rather than functioning like an open grant competition, this notice serves as a formal statement of the government s intent to make a single, noncompetitive task agreement award. The NPS cites Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C) as the basis for using a noncompetitive approach, which is commonly used when an agency has documented justification for selecting a particular partner, such as unique qualifications, continuity of prior work, or alignment with an established CESU partnership structure.

The award is categorized under the Natural Resources funding activity area and is associated with CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs Resources of the National Park System. The expected number of awards is one, with an estimated total funding amount of 30,000. No cost sharing or matching funds are required. The listing shows no award ceiling or floor, which typically means the specific budget is governed by the task agreement scope and negotiated terms rather than being constrained by a preset minimum or maximum range in the public notice.

Eligibility is effectively limited because the announcement is not a request for applications. The notice explicitly states it is a single source award to the Museum of Northern Arizona, meaning other organizations are not being invited to apply and will not be considered under this posting. In practical terms, the "Eligible Applicants" field is overridden by the single source determination described in the eligibility notes, which is standard for notices of intent tied to CESU task agreements where a particular partner has been selected.

Key dates indicate the opportunity was posted and created on July 3, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 9, 2012, and an archive date of August 8, 2012. Those short timelines are typical of noncompetitive notices, since the purpose is often to provide public transparency and allow for any required internal or external review processes rather than to collect proposals from the public.

For additional details beyond what is included in the summary fields, the notice references an attached announcement. If the full announcement is difficult to access electronically, the point of contact listed is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303 969 2392.
