Opportunity Summary:
The "Catalog Santa Fe Preservation Program Archives" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR8100110205) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The purpose, as indicated by the title, is focused on cataloging archival materials associated with the Santa Fe Preservation Program, which aligns with NPS natural resource and National Park System resource stewardship priorities. Rather than functioning as an open competition, the posting serves as a formal notice that NPS intends to make a task agreement award through the CESU mechanism.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications. It is a single-source, noncompetitive award, made under the Department of the Interior policy referenced as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which covers circumstances where noncompetitive awards are permissible. The only intended recipient identified in the listing is the University of Arizona, meaning other organizations are not being solicited to apply through this notice even though the eligible applicant field is broadly labeled "Others" with clarification provided in the eligibility notes. In practical terms, the public posting is primarily about transparency and documentation of the agency's intent to award rather than a call for proposals.
In terms of funding details, the estimated total funding amount is $34,503, and the opportunity anticipates a single award. The listing shows no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means the recipient would not be expected to contribute a defined non-federal match as a condition of the award. The award ceiling and floor are both listed as $0, which is a common artifact in older grant postings and often indicates the agency did not populate those fields for a single, predefined amount rather than implying no funds are available. The program is associated with CFDA number 15.945, "Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System," reflecting that the CESU model is designed to support research, technical assistance, and capacity-building through partnerships, often with universities.
The timeline in the record indicates it was posted and created on July 5, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 10, 2011, and an archive date of August 9, 2011. Because this is not an open competition, those dates function more like an administrative posting window than a typical application deadline period. Anyone needing access to the full announcement materials or experiencing issues retrieving them electronically is directed to contact the grant/agreement specialist listed: William Tallbull at (303) 969-2891.
