Opportunity Summary:

The National Park Service (NPS), within the U.S. Department of the Interior, issued a Notice of Intent to Award for a project titled "A Telaquana Trail Cultural Landscape Report within Lake Clark National Park and Preserve." This notice is strictly a public announcement of NPS's plan to fund a specific set of project activities and is not a competitive grant solicitation. In other words, there is no application process, no open competition, and no opportunity for new applicants to submit proposals under this posting.

The award is planned as a cooperative agreement, reflecting a partnership-based funding arrangement often used when the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project. The work is tied to Task Agreement Number P14AC01726 under an existing Cooperative Agreement (H8W07110001) with Portland State University. Portland State University is identified as a partner under the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a network structure that allows NPS and other federal agencies to collaborate with universities and other partners on research, technical assistance, and resource management needs. The activity category is listed under Natural Resources, and the CFDA program authorities referenced are 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, the posting indicates an estimated total funding amount of $176,000 and anticipates a single award. Both the award ceiling and award floor are shown as $0, which commonly appears in notices like this because the amount is described elsewhere (here, as the estimated total) and because it is not a standard competitive announcement with variable request amounts. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated. The eligible applicant category is "public and State controlled institutions of higher education," aligning with the fact that the intended recipient is a university partner rather than a general pool of applicants.

The announcement was posted and created on September 13, 2014, and archived on September 20, 2014. The original and current closing dates both state "This is not a request for applications," reinforcing that the posting functions as a transparency and compliance step to disclose NPS's intent to make a non-competitive award to a named partner for a defined project. The official funding opportunity number is P14AS00363, and the title matches the project name.

For access issues or administrative questions about the announcement, the notice lists a point of contact: Lilette Baltodano, Financial Agreements Officer, reachable by phone at 415-623-2251 or by email at lilettebaltodano@nps.gov. An additional information link is provided through Grants.gov (http://www.grants.gov), where the public posting and associated record would typically be accessible.
