Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service (NPS) announced a notice of intent for a cooperative agreement titled "Associates of Fish Wildlife Improve Partnership Efforts" (Funding Opportunity Number: NPS WASO NOI 2340100069). This opportunity is focused on strengthening collaboration between NPS and the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA) by jointly planning and carrying out professional events such as conferences, workshops, symposia, and similar forums. The core purpose is to expand awareness and practical understanding of research findings and wildlife management information by building venues where scientists, managers, and other practitioners can exchange knowledge and apply it to on-the-ground decision-making.
Under the planned agreement, NPS would contribute staff expertise directly to these events. That involvement is described as hands-on and programmatic, including helping design meeting sessions, chairing or moderating sessions, leading discussions, participating as presenters or panelists, and producing summary reports that capture key outcomes, lessons learned, and next steps. In other words, the funding supports not just attendance, but active facilitation and content development meant to improve how research and management information is communicated, interpreted, and used across agencies and partners.
A major deliverable implied by the announcement is improved access to and sharing of AFWA-held information relevant to NPS parks and surrounding landscapes. The notice highlights a range of data types and management topics that would be made more available to parks, including information on native and invasive species distributions, the status and management considerations of federally listed species, and the locations of rare or unique plant communities. It also mentions broader contextual and planning-relevant information such as recreational uses and park location data, as well as supporting natural resource datasets like maps, spatial/GIS layers, digital datasets, and aerial photography. The intent is to ensure park managers and researchers can better identify science and research needs, fill information gaps, and coordinate resource management actions using consistent and up-to-date information.
From an administrative standpoint, this was posted as a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement instrument, categorized under Natural Resources. The opportunity anticipated a single award with an estimated total funding amount of $20,000, and an award ceiling of $20,000. No cost sharing or matching was required. Eligibility was limited to for-profit organizations other than small businesses. The posting date and creation date were August 11, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 17, 2010, and an archive date of October 17, 2010. The CFDA number is listed as 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), which is sometimes used for announcements that do not map cleanly to a single standard assistance listing.
Because the announcement is explicitly labeled a "notice of intent only," it signals the agency was informing the public of its intention to work with AFWA through a cooperative arrangement rather than soliciting broad competitive proposals. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement was directed to contact Kortni Selinger, Contract Specialist, at 303-987-6734 or kortniselinger@contractor.nps.gov.
