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 "Administrative Support for the Klamath Network Southern Oregon University Inventory, Monitoring, and Research Partnership." The key point of this notice is that it is not a request for applications or a competitive grant solicitation. Instead, it serves as a public announcement that NPS plans to fund specific work through an existing partnership arrangement, and that the agency intends to do so without full and open competition.
This opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number P13AS00105 and is categorized as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement funding instrument. The work falls under the Natural Resources activity category and is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers Cooperative Research and Training Programs related to resources of the National Park System. Only one award was expected, reflecting that the funding was intended for a specific partner rather than an open applicant pool. Although the listing states eligible applicants are public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, the notice makes clear that the recipient is predetermined due to the existing cooperative framework.
The intended recipient is Southern Oregon University (SOU), acting under Task Agreement P13AC00714 within Cooperative Agreement H8W07110001. SOU is identified as a partner under the Pacific Northwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU), a network commonly used by federal agencies to collaborate with universities and other partners on research, technical assistance, and related support activities. In practical terms, this structure allows NPS and SOU to coordinate closely on project execution, with NPS having substantial involvement consistent with a cooperative agreement.
The project scope, as reflected in the title, centers on providing administrative support for the Klamath Network's inventory, monitoring, and research partnership with Southern Oregon University. While the notice does not break out a detailed statement of work, the phrasing signals support functions that enable or sustain ongoing natural resource inventory and monitoring efforts, along with associated research collaboration. The Klamath Network is part of NPS inventory and monitoring activities, and administrative support typically includes coordination, logistics, reporting, communication, and other operational tasks necessary to keep multi-park and university partnership work running smoothly.
Financially, the estimated total funding amount listed is $42,827. The award ceiling and floor are both shown as $0, which commonly appears in notices like this when the agency is not running an open competition with variable award ranges and is instead posting a public notice tied to a specific agreement and task arrangement. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated, meaning the recipient is not expected to provide a mandatory non-federal match as a condition of the award.
The notice was posted and created on July 19, 2013, and it was archived on July 25, 2013. Because it is not an application-based opportunity, the original and current closing dates are both stated as "This is not a request for applications." For additional details, the listing directs readers to Grants.gov and provides a point of contact for access issues: Lilette Baltodano at 415-623-2251 and lilettebaltodano@nps.gov.
