Opportunity Summary:
The Channel Islands Bald Eagle CAM Project (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIP12AC11166) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action focused on natural resource stewardship under CFDA 15.944 (Natural Resource Stewardship). The notice explains that the NPS plans to issue a single Task Agreement under an already existing Cooperative Agreement (No. P12AC30239) with the Ventura County Office of Education. In practical terms, this is not an open competition and not a standard grant solicitation where multiple applicants submit proposals. Instead, it functions as a Notice of Intent to make a noncompetitive, single-source award.
The announcement specifies that the award will be made as a Cooperative Agreement, with an expected number of awards of one and no cost sharing or matching requirement. The estimated total funding is $35,000, and the award ceiling is also $35,000, indicating the full anticipated federal amount for the project is capped at that level. The opportunity was posted and created on June 7, 2012, with a closing date of June 11, 2012, and an archive date of July 11, 2012, reflecting a short administrative window that is typical for noncompetitive notices rather than an open call for proposals.
Eligibility is explicitly limited: while the system field may list eligible applicants broadly as "Others," the detailed eligibility statement clarifies that this is a single-source award to the Ventura County Office of Education. The justification for the noncompetitive approach is tied to Department of the Interior Manual 505 DM 2.12C, which is cited as the policy basis for proceeding without competition. The notice also indicates that additional project specifics were provided in an attached announcement, implying that the public posting is primarily intended to document the government’s intent and comply with transparency requirements rather than invite applications.
For administrative questions or help accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Yvonne Morales, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 415-464-5221 or by email at yvonnemorales@nps.gov.
